The limit that the 3 body problem presents is that there is no exact solution, and inexact solutions will eventually desynchronize so much as to become worthless for predictions. But the key word is ‘eventually’ - if your initial measurements are good, there could be years (and in the case of the planets of the solar system, millions of years) worth of useful predictions.
Got a visible spectrum comparison?
It’s not exactly that they ran out of money, but the admin who ‘held the keys’ went offline long enough for the hosting to end.
One of the other admins started a new instance. Also the old instance was brought back as read-only.
“Did you ever have the feeling you was being watched?”
I guess you could count the atmosphere as part of earth, then things over 100km are in little enough of the atmosphere that it’s not really ‘touching’ it the same way. (For example not generating significant lift)
What about convection? There’s been at least some mixing, right? So I’d guess the average age of a nucleus from the core (ignoring fusion) would indeed be less than from the surface, but I would think it’s less difference (on average) than the raw math. If there’s enough mixing it could be very little difference at all.
Eventually dead, from multiple potential causes. Especially with no lid.

I’ve also seen gasoline tankers with a picture of Yosemite Sam and the caption “We ain’t haulin’ milk!” - I’m guessing this is a riff on those.
Exactly that. Drivers don’t generally have much UI (I guess module load parameters count) so getting it working is most of the job.
It’s the user facing applications which sometimes feel a bit unpolished. That has definitely improved over the years though.
This is more about open source in general than Linux specifically, but anyway.
Minor details.
I get the impression that often the developers are passionate about getting things working, but once it works it’s hard to keep going to fix ‘papercuts’: minor UI issues, documentation, small usability improvements, consistency, etc. They want to move on to the next big feature.
Of course commercial products can suffer from the same, but if large enough they may have a program manager who assigns people to specific areas like that which get less coverage when it’s based on the devs’ desire to work on them.

Oh, wait, did you mean audio?
You know sonic booms? This is basically like ‘optical booms’ from radiation in water that’s traveling faster than the speed-of-light-in-water (which is less than the speed of light in a vacuum)
It is cute when they curl up into a ball.

Would make sense, another character was released recently that greatly improves Firefly teams, so the timing is right depending on when this was taken.


It’s more likely than you think
