@structuredsucc A ship sails faster with the wind abeam than behind. Sails function like airfoils and generate forces beyond just wind speed at that point of sail.

@structuredsucc The conservative and slow-moving nature of #Debian is a feature, not a bug. When mass delusions - like the AI gold-rush - seize the IT industry, Debian holds its course, a bulwark of sanity and steadiness in a churning sea of narcissism and recklessness. #Linux

@d1 @structuredsucc Debian isn't always the conservative distro everyone paints them to be. A perfect example is when they decided to adopt systemd when at the time only Red Hat and Arch used it. Their vote to adopt it was the catalyst for nearly every other major distro to adopt it. That's setting a trend, not being conservative.
Slackware is a more accurate example of conservatism in Linux.

The common trolley problem is actually part 1. In part 2 you can save five people by pushing a fat man in front of the trolley to stop it.Many will pull the lever but not push someone. The point is to examine where the difference lies, despite being Mathematically identical.
Also Theseus' ship is part 1 of 3.

When you brew what's called a black tea in the Western countries it is a liquid of red-adjacent colours, isn't it?In Chinese it is literally named "red" tea, thus it is classified as a red tea when the Chinese tea categorization is used (which is common in loose leaf specialty tea circles). But in the West it is known as black.
However, in Chinese there is another category of "black" (or "dark") teas, liquor of which is way darker and at times doesn't pass through the light.

Wait, what? Really? So, it isn't just about catching wind?
I know it's more complicated because tacking (sp) into the wind is possible, but I haven't the faintest idea on how to apply any of that
