1 physical dimension. Mathematically, each signal is a dimension.


We still call images "two-dimensional" when they're colored. There is a difference between continuous dimensions like space and time, and discrete dimensions like color channels in an image, or like instrument "tracks" of a song. The latter can have correlations, but they'll be sparse associations, rather than structural formulaic ones.


That's exactly the same as regular HTML


At what point of sharing does something become unworthy of respect? Is a married couple's property unworthy? A family's? A group of roommates?


I'd suggest: at the point where you start paying for the "sharing" in money.


I have much more respect for something that an actual person owns. If it's some mom and pop bed and breakfast I respect it a lot more than if it is some hotel.

EDIT: After thinking some more it is all boils down to how much the owner cares about it. For example I really care a lot about my car but the rental comapany doesn't really care much about any specific car that they own.


When's it's owned by a publicly traded company.


I guess I should clarify: I put in extra effort to treat them nicer than baseline.


It's not. The stone age ended because we invented better tech, without raising stone prices. Oil costs will rise.


Not all stones are equally useful for tools. For example, your tribe may run out of easily accessible obsidian, which is essentially a cost increase.


If you lease the car, the monthly price doubles.


47,208 a year if you lease your car out 30 days a month on Turo.


There's got to be an arbitrage opportunity here.


That sounds funny, but it's true under the common modern curving regime that is really just lowering the bar for raw score to letter grade conversion, not forcing a bell curve.


Square root of grade times 10 :-p


100 level classes werent substantiallly more often bimodal than the others though.


9% vs. 3%, 5%, and 6%.


Microsoft, the inventor and trademark owner, use # on their website.


You were correct before ASCII and English keyboards and Microsoft C# gave the # an expanded role out of convenience


It's a hash, not a hashtag. The hashtag is the # plus a "tag" word. When someone says "hashtag foo", they went spelling it out # + foo, they are saying "this is a hashtag, not a regular word in my setencen; the tag is foo" and the # is silent.

#prescriptivism.
