**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Jul 13 02:59:57 2019 Jul 13 07:45:35 Floating point arithmetic is strange? With CPython 2.7.x on Windows NT on x86-64 (Intel Core 2), Linux on ARM on both the Nokia N900 and LG G5, 4.18+2.61 returns 6.789999999999999 or similar instead of 6.79 and 6.79+8.59 returns 15.379999999999999 or similar instead of 15.38 . Jul 13 09:58:11 brolin_empey: welcome to floats Jul 13 19:28:05 brolin_empey: that's "dithering" betweeen dual system on float and decimal system Jul 13 19:28:51 float does NOT imply higher precision, all the contrary Jul 13 20:15:54 GPD P2 Max looks interesting Jul 14 02:04:39 sixwheeledbeast: I redd https://www.gpd.hk/gpdp2max . It is indeed interesting but it has a fan, lacks an integrated numeric keypad, and presumably requires disassembly to access the battery. Also, it looks like the main memory may be fixed (soldered) on the motherboard instead of socketed? The IPS AMLCD sounds nice but an AMOLED display would be more impressive. Jul 14 02:09:30 It also lacks integrated Ethernet connectivity and uses an old version of Bluetooth (4.x instead of 5.x). Apparently it lacks a discrete GPU too. Jul 14 02:13:26 They are comparing it to some iPad model but all Apple iOS computers are fanless as far as I know. Jul 14 02:27:28 The keyboard is not backlit either. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Jul 14 03:00:21 2019
