I jumped off Reddit’s cliff and landed here just like many other Lemmings.

  • That’s true, but usually they get their method right (or close to it) but fail on the simple addition. If you use it to help figure out what steps you need to take, you can then run through substituting the correct numbers in and make some real progress.

    I just completed a class on hydrology and water engineering with this method. Got a HD. That either says something about the school or something about GPT. Not sure which.

    It certainly says something about my willingness to complete water engineering coursework, I’ll admit that.






  • My 2011 iPad 3rd gen.

    A lightweight Linux distribution would make that thing killer for word processing and document reading. Might even allow YouTube videos to be watched again.

    Any equivalent Android tablet would have custom ROMs etc. to get a bit more functionality out of it. I know it’s not a tablet, but look at the Samsung galaxy SII - the amount of community development for that is incredible to this day.













  • 0-100°F also has more individual degrees than -18-38°C, and when a couple degrees can make a big difference for indoor comfort (or the heating bill), I appreciate more granularity.

    Ah yes, because I’ve always found 16.5°C such a difficult concept. Decimal places are hard.

    I concede the “human” scale could be handy to some, but I mean - the civilised world uses metres, not feet - why should it be any different with temperature?
