But can it be solved by throwing less sensors at the problem? Cause that’s what he’s been doing. Removing sensors from the newer versions that were in the older ones.
Same for me. I don’t understand why, I should love it but I don’t.
There will be an improvement of course. That kind of thinking is why the USA still uses imperial after 200 years of the metric system.
You have to do that anyway.
Yes, so?
Cooperatives, employee-owned companies, etc.
I’m not the one who suggested regulations. For me, corporations shouldn’t exist at all.
They’re suggesting regulating corporations properly.
Low skill users will use what comes installed on their machine, so installation quirks like that are not relevant for them. They don’t install Windows either.
And do you seriously think that someone with minimal modding knowledge can “fix” texture compression
Yes, better textures are consistently one of the first mods to come out for every game they have released since Fallout 3.
What exactly is the utility of the above quote of yours then?
To show that the correlation is spurious at best.
Has it become even more successful after he’s mellowed out?
Yes, it has. Usage of Linux has been growing over the years.
it uses end-to-end encryption
At least they say they do, but we can’t really verify that.
My point is exactly that. It’s not obvious, and as such you can’t attribute the success of Linux to his behaviour. Like the OP said, there’s no logic in looking at something successful and picking a singular thing to be responsible.
How is that obvious? Especially because it’s become even more successful after he’s mellowed out?
The analogy is that the end result doesn’t justify the behaviour from the person in power. It’s apt.
Of course it is. A square is also a rectangle but it’s still an important distinction.
But did it work because of the style or in spite of it? No reason to believe it wouldn’t be even more successful if he had been less abrasive like he is now.
It’s not a comparison, it’s an analogy. Important distinction.
It’s both.
