yeah I kinda miss him NGL I hate how much hate he got
I’m not one of those bringbackthorn people (imo if there’s ever gonna be a spelling reform it should focus more on consistent spelling) but I don’t mind people who use it

- Comment on Copper 2 months ago:
Let’s assume the dimensions of the copper block are 40mm40mm160mm (I’m not taking the heat spreader into account here)
That results in a volume of 256000mm3, or 256cm3
Copper (at 20C) has a density of 8.935 g/cm3, so that’s roughly 2.28736kg of copper
Copper has a specific heat capacity of 384.603 J/(kg K)
Using E=cm∆t, we can figure out that it would take ≈ 70378J of energy to heat the copper block to 100C, starting at 20C
With a TDP od 120W, that means it would take 586 seconds to heat the block to 100C, or 9m46s
This is probably way off but I was bored

tbh the distinction isn’t necessary in casual writing (although it’s still considered respectful to use it in formal writing)

100%
Programming languages are already languages, languages that do exactly what I request, languages which are free/cheap to use, languages which just make sense
Why would I defer that to another language which is imprecise, and which I don’t have control over?

- Comment on Color? What's that? 6 months ago:
It’s not that, it’s just that the accents in Britain and America diverged, with some of the most major changes being English becoming non-rhotic in a lot of England (this also carried over to America in some New England accents and AAVE)
There’s nothing inherently “posh” about Southern English accents, it’s just that Americans often perceive Brits as posh for historical reasons
