There very much is an agreed on convention, some people are just not using it and that is entirely their problem.

Yes, at least by the most common agreed on convention. Almost any mathematician, programming language, search engine or spreadsheet software will say it’s 9. It is for all intents and purposes the right answer.
The precedences go like this:
parentheses > exponents > (multiplication = division) > (addition = substraction)
If you encounter operators with the same precedence (like multiplication and division) you go by the order they appear in the equation, left to right. That is how it works.
No you don’t, division is on the left, so it comes first
Well, Patrick IS an idiot … so it checks out?

10·24 hours agoDon’t they put plutonium reactors in space? Have to be able to cool those somehow?
The entire point of those is to produce heat to power a thermoelectric generator. And while most of the heat will be wasted, it is a rather small amount overall.
A data centre would require massive amounts of energy, most likely provided by solar panel arrays. Then the processors will convert all the energy to heat that has to go somewhere.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you think information on how to build weapons should be legal to disseminate? Or should they be censored? Explain your reasoning?
1·1 day agoIt wouldn’t matter. Even if it’s illegal, as long as it is possible people will do it and we will all die in a nuclear armageddon in a few months.
Das ist jetzt schon das zweite mal das ich ein meme-format sehe das mit diesen hässlichen Comic-style ersetzt wurde. Ist das slop oder was ist da los?
If you look at a spectrum with bad on one end and good on the other, then both “less bad” and “better” would describe a movement towards “good”. So they kind of are the same.
No one wants to be friends with people that wear socks and sandals.

12·1 day agoWe are talking about a 15-19 year olds here, not little kids. And they are not on death-row, they’re probably get fine and/or some community service. Seems quite appropirate as a punishment for being an absolute idiot. I’m standing by it, they deserve that.

I’d say not optimal. It might even slightly inconvenience me.
A very related but different issue. With the possibility of the US leaving NATO or even worse, turning hostile, it’s even more important that Europe gets her military in shape. And Spain is pretty much the European country that doesn’t pick up the slack right now.
