Maths - sin, tan and cos are all factors of the rotation of a circle, hence pi being on there. I’m not a mathematician, I just watch standup maths and can recommend his book, “love triangle” to explain this sort of stuff.
Been there too
people wouldn’t have to masquerade as much behind legitimate business.
Yes, that’s the point - they’d BE a legitimate business anyway. Sadly, the concept of it being not so, is so ingrained in Western (American and British, at least) culture that even comments in support reveal an unconscious bias that’s hard to overcome.
3·2 months agoMine is sidereal… I always said side real. Then, I learned it was (roughly) Sid air heal.
Though I did use to say Copernicus as copper knickers too.
It is a bit different to say, “HP changed their recipe” versus “some dumb ass redistributor changed HP’s award winning recipe and suffered the consequences” :-D
Either way, I’m glad to get the original. Nothing better with some sausages or bacon…
I think that’s because the HP franchise their recipes, and different locations have “regional” variants. Here in the UK, it’s never significantly changed so you’re probably getting the English import - so, of course, there’s a shipping cost on top.

Technically, it was a display made from E. Coli cells, not actually programming the microbes to run it themselves…
… but yes, Doom has been used in a computer where the display was E. Coli.
“Actively Commissioning” and “Subsidizing” are two different contexts. Your points are all accurate, but commissioning a movie means actually going out and saying, “we want this movie, and will pay/provide resources to it in order for it to get done”, versus “your doing a movie with military, we’ll provide resources in compensation for a meddlers credit”.
3·2 months agoWoah, cool. Didn’t know there was a first party portable.
The Osborne? A fantastic machine for the time…
1·2 months agoThe ICO in the UK is pretty good… I used to work on their CRM system and it was an eye opener how little, and also how big the things they investigated were.
I’m in the UK. I’ll never brag about our train system, not after Twatcher privatised them, and further back the horrific Beeching cuts.
The rest - yeah, worth it.
This is illegal in UK and Europe…

2 albums, so start with the first one, named Brothers of Metal. Emblas Saga picks up from there.
They’re very fun Norse themed songs.
They recently toured with gloryhammer and beast in black… And I wish I’d seen it live :-D
Really? Come to the C# side… We have all those, and concise code too.
As “three dead trolls in a baggie” famously sung… “Every OS Sucks”.
As true today as when it was first penned.
