The opposite for me. I want my helpful comments to be gone from Reddit. If they want to make money off my content, they better pay me, that’s how one acts according to Spezface.
I’ve been waiting for the whole restoration thing to shake out, and only went through my highest upvoted posts and comments to delete just those by hand (after receiving my GDPR data dump of all my posts and comments 2 weeks ago).
Thanks for the fun rabbit hole. They can’t really solve the halting problem though, you can make an oracle solve the halting problem for a turning machine but not for itself. Then of course you can make another oracle machine that solves the halting problem for that oracle machine, and so on and so forth, but an oracle machine can never solve its own halting problem.
They exist in the same grammatical hierarchy so theoretically they can solve the same problems. What I should have said was that nondeterministic turing machines can solve NP problems in P
Interesting that despite it still being summer and roasty toasty in the southern hemisphere in January, the world average temp is still lower than the northern hemisphere summer.
Averages mean almost nothing. They can’t really be used to say anything meaningful.
1000 men vs 1000 women: 999 men earn $1 per hour. 1 man earns $1,000,000 per hour. 1,000 women earn $500 per hour. On average, men earn $1000 per hour, but women earn on average half that.
The reality is obviously very different to the average.
No, the point remains the same. The point is averages by design remove peaks and lows by averaging them out. A system as complex as our atmosphere needs to be considered more granularly than just as by averages. Peaks and lows cause massive disasters, like in Europe right now.
No your point is still invalid. Explaining how averages work doesn’t lend credence to your point as they’re intentionally used for this purpose by making temperature changes directly comparable day to day. We don’t have any days where the temperature jumps to 1,000,000 degrees Celsius, so there’s nothing to throw the average off.
You’re correct that our atmosphere and weather are complex, which is why scientists use a multitude of approaches to study them. The fact that you think average temperature is the only method being used for study only shows your lack of knowledge on the topic.
If you still feel I’m wrong then show us the math using actual temperature values to prove it.
The average tells us quite a lot. It shows that overall, year on year temperatures across the entire planet are increasing, whether it's winter or summer. Like you say the impacts of that are higher spikes in more places every year and those spikes are lost from the data, but the average is valuable aswell. Because of the scale, and the fact that it's including winter for half the planet, 1 degree change in the average is pretty crazy.
The southern hemisphere has a lot more water surface area, which has a larger heat capacity, is somewhat reflective, and a lower density / conductivity.
This is why Australians and Brazilians are known to be amphibious during summer.
