Yeah, sorry if my tone seemed patronizing.
And I can relate with you. Orbital predictions? “This body will collide with that other body 7 years from now”? Whoa. Magic indeed!!
It’s okay not to understand everything about Math. I used to be a big enthusiast, even went to engineering school and loved the Math parts of it. But there are many, many, many topics I don’t have the time or energy to grasp them, and I’m okay with that.
But yeah, nothing too magic about it. If you have one apple and you know that someone will give you another apple in 30 minutes, how many apples will you have in 45 minutes? That’s right. 2 apples. Of course, predicting orbital trajectories is much more than that. But that’s pretty much about it (lol!)

Edit: it’s an open source version of a transport tycoon game.

3·2 months agoIn Spanish you have: America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Antarctica and Oceania.
With North and South America, you have seven in English. Neat!

2·2 months agoWait, isn’t Central America its own continent???
But anyway. In Spanish, there is only one continent: América. Or so I was taught. Has this changed?
Easy peasy:
Communities = commies
You’re welcome.
Oh I see! Thanks. I thought that they deliberately rejected your patch. But it was more about the red tape getting in the way. Yeah, that sounds frustrating.
Why didn’t your patch get merged?

Because that’s not happening. Look it up.

4·3 months agoI still have my reservations, but I’ve changed my mind about “vibe coding”.
Juniors vibe coding? Awful idea. It stunts learning. Non-programmers vibe coding? Aside from small scripts, anything exposed to the internet is a dangerous thing.
Experienced programmers who already know what they’re doing? Code assistants can be a bliss for tired fingers and wrists.

Ask Science@lemmy.world•How close are we to infinite power? Being able to cheaply in our everyday lives? Or are we trying anymore?English
1·3 months agoYeah, “infinite power” is waaaaaay too much power. Unless OP refers free, uninterrupted power that covers any necessity humanity will ever need, without damaging the environment. This is infinitily less power than infinite power.
I believe this can happen, though not in my lifetime.

31·3 months agoShit, I wonder if something similar will happen with AI.
“Remember the time when running AI required at the very least a very powerful computer running one or more GPUs at 100% capacity? Or entire datacenters costing millions of dollars per month? Crazy, right? Today you just tap your watch with a local AGI, using a couple of CR-2032 batteries that last 6 months, and you can ask it to create a multi-week vacation plan around the Caribbean in mere seconds.”

1·3 months agoHm, I guess you’re technically correct, but going so far back to middle school is like saying that “Santa is being sold as reality” because we thought that he was real at that age.
It’s a cool coincidence, though.
I mean, come on. The region called after the constellation with the north star, which aids with finding where the north pole is, has polar bears. Nice!
