Do they still get a lot of radio play in the USA?
I think it’s safe to say that anyone in the USA who still listens to the radio knows the Beach Boys.
Cool, so in a few years we’ll have a screen which isn’t better in any noticeable way?
Okay, but seriously? Dropping off is hard AF. If you can do that, you have my respect.
It’s… definitely not right. Most estimates I found from a quick Google search put global energy consumption at a bit under 600,000 PJ per year, so even if they meant to say daily energy consumption or something they’d still be off by an order of magnitude.
The closest I can get to the number they gave is that global daily electricity consumption is a little over 200 PJ, so right on par with estimates for the Tsar Bomba.
Oh, that is actually much more helpful. So, if you know your times tables, you can do percentages. You just have to use communitavatization.
Jokes aside, I really appreciate it. That made it much more easier to understand. Thank you.
No, I think we all learned that multiplication is commutative in late elementary school, and obviously that’s an important thing to know.
But I think the original post tried to make it out to be some magical mathematical trick, and I really don’t understand that. Maybe I misunderstood the post.
Edit: wow, “commutative” is a really hard word to spell.
…I mean, yeah? If the number is 50 or 10 that works out great. But let’s try that with 7% of 13. Now it’s 13% of 7. Just like you said, “much easier to calculate.”
Okay, choosing prime numbers was intentionally mean on my part. But 3% of 9 becomes 9% of 3. 4% of 2 becomes 2% of 4. Can anyone honestly look me in the eye and tell me that this tip has helped them out in any meaningful way?
