minus-squareColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 years agoThe math chec…wait, no. That math doesn’t check out at all.
minus-squareagent_flounder@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 years agoNaw, it just means everyone will have two Linux computers!
minus-squareA_Random_Idiot@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 years agoI mean, I currently have 3 linux computers… sooooo…
minus-squareTropicalDingdong@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·edit-22 years agoOk, fine, I’ll do the actual curve fitting instead of just estimating. Eyeballing it, were saying 1% in 2013, 2% in 2021, 3% in 2023? Gives us a fit of… 0.873 * exp(0.118 * x) So… Correct the equation and solve for x x_target = np.log(200 / a) / b Calculate the actual year year_target = 2013 + x_target print(year_target) In ~2058 everyone will be using two linux desktops at once.
minus-squareColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 years agoIf you don’t think of the increase in speed of new users as continuing to increase exponentially.
minus-squareTropicalDingdong@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 years agoIsn’t that the point of the exponent in the exponential function?
minus-squareHupf@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 years agoIt is an older math, Sir. I was going to let them pass.

Correct the equation and solve for x
x_target = np.log(200 / a) / b
Calculate the actual year
year_target = 2013 + x_target
print(year_target)
