  • @lysander@fedi.vituperio.eu @oblomov@sociale.network per esperienza mia capiscono benissimo il loro nome e quello che gli si dice ma nella maggior parte dei casi preferiscono fidarsi del loro giudizio e non del nostro.
    Tutte le mie gatte capivano (Picù ancora capisce) il loro nome e "andiamo a casa" se siamo in giardino.
    Picia normalmente si fermava a chiedere il mio parere se aveva dei dubbi su cosa fare e di solito mi ascoltava. Su "andiamo a casa" rispondeva che proprio non ne aveva voglia, muovendo la coda in modo scocciato e facendo dei versetti tipo "mehmehmeh" oppure buttandosi per terra a chiedere "coccole meo meo ancora 5 minuti".
    Il punto critico è come li abitui quando sono molto piccoli, se ti percepiscono come occasionale distributore di cibo non ti ascoltano proprio, se invece sei una presenza costante nelle loro avventure e disavventure e diventi "famiglia" cercano di interagire con te e probabilmente valutano il tuo parere. Picia che è arrivata qui piccolissima pensava che fossi sua mamma e mi ascoltava.
    Ora vedremo come andrà e cosa riesco a fare con i cuccioli...

    "All these provisions you mention are interventions in market economies to make them work (partially) also for working people."

    Yes, that was the point of the list. Unfair markets also don't work for most business owners, by the way.

    The Sanskrit Square Root AlgorithmYears ago, no math education was complete without understanding how to compute a square root. Today, you are probably just reaching for a calculator, or if you are writing a program, you’ll probably just guess and iterate. [MindYourDecisions] was curious how people did square roots before they had such aids. Don’t remember? Never learned? Watch the video below and learn a new skill.The process is straightforward, but if you are a product of a traditional math education, you might find his terminology a bit confusing. He will refer to something like 18b meaning “a three-digit number where the last digit is b,” not “18 times b,” as you might expect.If you think the first few examples are a little convenient, don’t worry. The video gets harder as you go along. By the end, you’ll be working with numbers that have fractional parts and whose square roots are not integers.Speaking of the last part, stay tuned for the end, where you’ll learn the origin of the algorithm and why it works. Oddly, its origin is a Sanskrit poem. Who knew? He also talks about other ways the ancients computed square roots. As for us, we’ll stick with our slide rule.youtube.com/embed/6evC4klO_lI?…hackaday.com/2025/11/10/the-sa…
