There are a fair few examples in the book itself. https://qntm.org/clean

Originally? Probably lack of options. These days the aim of the game is sounding “like a violin”, so naturally there’s very little innovation in violin technology.
Violinist here.
Violins make sound by dragging the bow (stretched horse hair) over a string, causing the string to vibrate. At the micro level, the bow pulls the string to one side using friction, until the tension on the string pulls it back - this happens hundreds of times per second, and forms the basis of the sound we hear. Horse hair is slippery by default. To create the necessary tension violinists apply a small amount of solidified tree resin by wiping a piece along the length of the bow. This piece of hardened resin has the same approximate texture as glass or hard candy, and is called rosin.
Not sure whether timeshift supports multiple systems per partition, but I’d be very surprised if you couldn’t create separate partitions for each PC
If you’re moving away from text formats, might as well use a proper serialisation tool like protobuf…
Oh, it wasn’t bought… It was bough

Exactly. Agile is basically guaranteed to deliver something.
The real question is how fit-for-purpose is the resulting product.
They provide .deb files. I didn’t hunt any further than that
You will be fine. I game on mint with an Nvidia card. Steam has a setting to fall back to proton for all games without native Linux, and for everything off steam use Lutris (install it from the website, since the package manager version is too old to be useful)
Rebooting works for this too
Assume nothing
The dark mode on this site… Hardest I’ve laughed in a while. A+ trolling
Edit: only works on desktop by the looks
To answer your question without being a dickhead: The given x indicates the point on the curve you need to find the slope at. In other words, find the derivative and then evaluate that function at the given x.
