No he doesn't and yes he does are not argument. You are clearly both stupid.

If you are fine with touching winget to download something, you probably should be fine by touching edge to download something.

Mutations happen by chance but the result is not random, because natural selection is not random.

Update: Regarding your first part: A lot of people misunderstand the role randomness plays. Evolution is not random and not a coincidence but a consequence of any system that makes imperfect replicas in an environment that rewards (or punishes) certain traits.

y2k38 will be even funnier than y2k and y3k I guess.

@Prunebutt meant 4.5! and not 4.5. Because it's not an integer we have to use the gamma function, the extension of the factorial function to get the actual mean between 1 and 9 => 4.5! = 52.3428 which looks about right 🤣

Your example with the absolute values is actually linked in the "Even more ambiguous math notations" section.

Geogebra has indeed found a good solution but it only works if you input field supports fractions and a lot of calculators (even CAS like WolframAlpha) don't support that.

Now you changed it to an explicit multiplication. The ambiguity only comes from the implicit multiplication after a division, that's when the interpretation can be ambiguous. That's what the blog post really is about.

Ooh now I get you, sry. True. But sadly you now know the truth and you have to be careful with the implicit multiplications on your tax forms from now on ;-)

That's the correct answer if you follow one of the conventions. There are actually two conflicting but equally valid conventions. The blog explains the full story but this math problem is really ambiguous.

How does it compare to Nickel (https://github.com/tweag/nickel)?
