Autumn. The monsoon shifts so it’s starting to get dry and the heat is dying out.

Spring is too wet, summer is too hot, winter is too dry.

They tried too hard to make me join, but instead I got annoyed

I don’t know about that. The authors of Ninja Hattori and Doraemon shared the same pen name though

Doraemon

This is a very big franchise in Asia but rarely mentioned in the west, so let me introduce it to (most of) you :>

Doraemon is a robot cat from the 22nd century who has gone back in time to help a kid named Nobita. He has a lot of wacky gadgets to offer. Each episode is basically a story about one of these gadgets. They also pump out a new movie every year.

That’s right. It should not have the problem. That’s why this is confusing.

A few years back, I was installing Arch on an external hard disk. I was basically done, so I powered off the system, but I forgot to unmount the hard disk.

Then I tried to boot to the OS on my computer, which was also Arch, and it got stuck at the BIOS splash screen. No luck rebooting.

I remember panicking (because that was my only machine) and asking my computer teacher what to do and he also had no idea.

I ended up manually unplugging and replugging the hard disk inside the case and it worked. To this day I still don’t know what went wrong.

A protestor from a few years ago got sentenced to 10 years in prison, as well as some others with shorter periods (still a few years).

The problem is the ambiguity of the statement. Is it 50% of each species? Or is it 50% of all life as one set?

If it’s the former case, then sure 3.5b humans and n/2 bacteria gets snapped.

But if it’s the latter case, we group all 7b and n bacteria into one set and snap half of them. This 50% can consist of 50% humans + 50% bacteria, but there’s also a chance for it to include 0% humans + 100% bacteria. Therefore, the amount of humans snap is a random variable instead of a constant.

Say, there exists 2 humans and 98 bacteria. Consider all cells of a human one life.

50% of ALL life doesn’t care which species the life is, and therefore there’s a chance that 50 bacteria die. The probability of that happening is 98C50 / 100C50 = 98! 50! 50! / (100! 50! 48!) = (50)(49) / ((100)(99)) = 0.247

For my previous argument, I did not actually do the math. Now that I have done a little bit, the probability seems to converge at 25%

Obviously, this is based on the interpretation of “all life”. For my interpretation, “all life” includes every life in a single set, and apply the 50% snap to that. For some others however, it may be interpreted as each species in their own set, and the 50% snap is applied on each set individually.

If you include bacteria, then probably no human died from the snap. There are significantly more of them

some wish computer science was that simple

What kind of sicko try to find their repos from the recent list on the main page??

They were so smart that they went back into the water and don’t have to ever deal with capitalism

How big is your “planet”

One step closer to the JS OS meme

Cantonese (廣東話/粵語) is what I speak, Traditional Chinese (繁體中文) is what I write.

唔好彩嘅係，Google 仲未支援粵語翻譯，你可以試下用其他翻譯器，DDG 嗰個好似 OK

(Translation: Unfortunately, Google still doesn’t support Cantonese translation. You can try other translators. The DDG one seems ok.)

Other than that, I also speak Mandarin (普通話/國語), which is the other spoken Chinese.

I never read it out loud, but in my mind it’s always “zeesh”

sudo is just pseudo and ssh is just the 3 letters
