A bit of a tangent, but the more complete reason depends on what civilization (Aztecs/Incas), the common factor is an extreme loss of life due to old world disease.

Additionally, for the projectile velocity at the time the gambeson-like garment the Aztecs had available was surprisingly effective.

Why unfortunately? Isn't that a good thing? (Assuming > 0% will switch to Linux instead of iOS)

Honestly, as much as I prefer Linux for most things Linux staying pat and macOS stealing market share from Windows is almost as good as Linux taking those users. I think we’re currently seeing a trend starting of people leaving Windows for each of them, and some users for both of them.

Funny if not tragic. I was impressed at how good the styling of the page was until I realized the css did not load.

You can use some form of real extensions, e.g. the extended real line (+inf, -inf is often useful for programmers) or the projectively extended real line (+inf = -inf).

This is not about infinity in math not being a _specific_ value, it can certainly be (the actual infinite instead of potential).

It's simply about design and foresight, in my humble opinion.

I was fascinated when I first learned of [FreeBSD Jails], I wonder if right before containerization became a thing the concept was developed further for its requirements (could it have been?) it would have offered a more efficient containerization platform.

FreeBSD Jails: https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/jails/

Jails are entirely different conceptually from UML; they share the host kernel and are roughly analogous to containers/namespaces. UML is an entirely separate kernel, running as user mode process.

Thank you! The article was "too clever" for me.

Yeah exactly. Me too.

I had a hard time trying to parse something understandable from the article.

This is what I got from it (I'd be happy to hear someone informed correcting me/confirming). (excerpt from a discussion yesterday I had with some friends not too math inclined)

What it seems to be the articles claim is that, you could define a scaling operation in the angles you performed, finding some constant scaling factor (say alpha) and running the operation twice to reach the identity (rotation 0 compared to baseline), e.g.:

I = R ⊕ (α.R ⊕ α.R)

In their example that would be something like (with alpha=0.3):

I = (rad(75).X ⊕ rad(20).Y ⊕ ...) ⊕ (rad(0.3x75).X ⊕ rad(0.3x20).Y ⊕ ...) ⊕ (rad(0.3x75).X ⊕ rad(0.3x20).Y ⊕ ...)

Remembering that our rotation action is non-commutative, e.g. `aX ⊕ bY != bY ⊕ aX`.
