Much later in my career I came to appreciate the beauty of this system and the link with hexadecimal. I had to debug a network transmitted CRC that was endian flipped and in that process learned that in the Galois Field of two, 1+1=0 which feels delightfully nonsensical to a luddite.

Don’t call him ass

I remember being puzzled by this and many other numbers that kept cropping up. 32, 64, 128, 256, 1024, 2048… Why do programmers and electronic engineers hate round numbers? The other set of numbers that was mysterious was timber and sheet materials. They cut them to 1220 x 2440mm and thicknesses of 18 and 25mm. Are programmers and the timber merchants part of some diabolical conspiracy?

7210lbs of nonsense

The fact that he won is amazing and a good sign for the city, hold on to that thought.

We are wistful for the days when our biggest problem was getting rid of kings and queens. Our first order of business is getting rid of bigots and racists. Then we can focus on alleviating the stranglehold of business, which will clear the path for dealing with climate change and investing in our health and education.

English people. The Scottish, Welsh and Irish mostly disapprove of the monarchy. Very few people aside from the English actually like these people. I guess that goes with the territory of being a billionaire family for hundreds of years.

I would not argue against that. Two steps forward and one back is usually how it goes with technology. Reliability is the problem that has only been achieved relatively recently. I remember a time when the hard shoulder was full of stalled vehicles. Japanese cars from the 70s and 80s were notably inferior to their competitors. We’ve come a long way in making this technology polished and affordable to the masses. Now the science shows us it is contributing to climate change and we have a new challenge. So it goes.

Car companies hate this one trick.

I would argue that it is already the case that cheap cars look and perform excellently, compared with cars produced fifty years ago. They are more reliable, economical, comfortable, higher performance, superior in virtually every respect.

The other factor to consider is the use case. Something like a Ferrari is not reliable compared to a VW Golf, it sucks at carrying passengers and cargo, terrible fuel economy, it is horrible value for money and inferior in most ways apart from one - compensating for a small penis. That is its chief purpose and it is supremely well crafted for this use case.

You son of a bitch

In that case we have to rely on Elons white power.

Jokes on you, I already have crabs

That depends what colour your skin is or if you wear any non christian headgear, symbols, etc.

It comes from chy-nah

And then we all clapped

That’s generally true for most HVAC applications. Bang-bang control creates limit cycle behaviour and as long as a small oscillation in temperature is acceptable, it’s a nice simple solution.

OPs problem seems to be a discontinuity between the two limit cycles, heating and cooling. The way to tackle this is to make time series vectors of all measurements and compare them with the subjective sensation of the room temperature. That should inform the relevant set points for the control actions.

Control theory is a bitch
