The Supreme Court was fully aware of the technical term:

Botanically speaking, tomatoes are the fruit of a vine, just as are cucumbers, squashes, beans, and peas. But in the common language of the people, whether sellers or consumers of provisions, all these are vegetables which are grown in kitchen gardens, and which, whether eaten cooked or raw, are, like potatoes, carrots, parsnips, turnips, beets, cauliflower, cabbage, celery, and lettuce, usually served at dinner in, with, or after the soup, fish, or meats which constitute the principal part of the repast, and not, like fruits generally, as dessert.

The attempt to class tomatoes as fruit is not unlike a recent attempt to class beans as seeds, of which Mr. Justice Bradley, speaking for this Court, said:

“We do not see why they should be classified as seeds any more than walnuts should be so classified. Both are seeds, in the language of botany or natural history, but not in commerce nor in common parlance. On the other hand, in speaking generally of provisions, beans may well be included under the term ‘vegetables.’ As an article of food on our tables, whether baked or boiled, or forming the basis of soup, they are used as a vegetable, as well when ripe as when green. This is the principal use to which they are put. Beyond the common knowledge which we have on this subject, very little evidence is necessary or can be produced.”

Nix v. Hedden, 149 U.S. 304 (1893)

So this is how the Supreme Court could do this: they were fully aware but reasonably decided tariff laws should be based on ordinary meaning.

My guess was correct, based only on the translation of piktžolė lol.

That’s not a type. A NaN is a floating point number (of type float). I used numpy because that’s the easiest way to get a NaN.

This is part of the floating point standard.

This was never about None, which is a completely different thing.

NaN is a special floating point value. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754

It’s weird but it makes sense why it was chosen to be this way.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words.

It’s not true in a normal programming language. If it is true in yours, you should stop using it immediately.

Where did you get this information from?

I am under 30, and I have interacted with music files.

edit: I don’t know about where you live, but I am definitely not the exception.

Don’t forget the new open-access model which has scientists pay money instead! (And not paltry sums)

I like how this directly goes against the argument of Fahrenheit being more “graded” with integers lol

But when it comes to weather, the boiling point of water is not a meaningful point of reference.

Well, the freezing point of water is very relevant for weather. If I see that the forecast is -1 degC when it was positive before, I know I will have to watch out for ice on roads.

And the boiling point as the other reference point makes complete sense.

About the only useful thing I see is that 100 Fahrenheit is about body temperature. Yeah, that’s about the only nice thing I can say about Fahrenheit. All temperature scales are arbitrary, but since our environment is full of water, one tied to the phase changes of water around the atmospheric pressure the vast majority of people experience just makes more sense.
