Someone made a relevant comic recently :P

The outline of a building, previously shown to host God at an Open Mic Night, with a speech balloon above: "The most important things to say to each other cannot be expressed _am I right!_"

Clickable: www.nature.com/articles/s41... Only skimming for purposes of this thread, but worth considering that CO2 (not refrigerant) emissions drop when we employ more solar. AC lets us use electricity exactly when we have the most. I think that's what the SSP119 scenario shows.

Caption: Total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across five SSP-RCP (Shared Socioeconomic Pathway–Representative Concentration Pathway) scenarios. The lines represent the GHG emissions based on mean Cooling Degree Days (CDD), while the shadows represent possible ranges of GHG emissions based on min and max CDD.

Description: a chart with years 1990–2050 on the x-axis and 0–15 Gigatons CO2 equivalent emissions on the y axis. The five scenarios on the chart branch off in 2010 (at around 1.5 Gt) from historical data. One, SSP585, rises steeply to around 8.5 Gt, with the shaded range going up to around 14 Gt. Three others rise but plateau – two of them (SSP370, SSP245) above 3 Gt, one (SSP126) slightly below. The last scenario (SSP119) plateaus around 2040 and then slightly decreases, ending around 1.5 Gt with a very narrow prediction uncertainty.

I do agree, handwriting is just better for math and learning (at least for me) But you _can_ write math/logic pretty seamlessly with the right tools. For example, with Typst (typst.app/play) you can write formulas like this: $(a and not b) => (c xor d)$

There's a bit of variation for not: ~ is common; programmers might bring a ! into logic, and there's the ¬ symbol that I learned to be more customary in logic. You can also overline the expression you're negating:

Different notations: "not P, written ¬P, ~P, P' or overline P."

When I memed basically this a couple years ago, this being weird was surprisingly controversial www.reddit.com/r/loljs/comm...

Meme: "Corporate needs you to find the differences between this picture and this picture."
The pictures show JS code: `async function() { return promise; }` and `async function() { return await promise; }`
JS: "They're the same picture."

When you create a release from an unmerged PR on #Codeberg (to test the release workflow, fyi), the number of "commits to main since this release" is reported as negative #TechnicallyTheTruth

A screenshot of the text "-2 commits to main since this release", where "-2 commits" is a link
