I recommend the books, they tell completely different stories. Though I haven't read them since I was a teenager.
The dev builds are actually very recent but finding a cheap hardware is still not that easy. The forums are a great place to start, I guess.
thanks, that's a great starting point. It seems the SanDisk players aren't easily available anymore but I'll look for the other compatible devices.
While it's easy to prove rigorously I think the easiest way to think about it is to think what number/numbers could go between 0.9 repeating and 1.
I guess that it also requires a second thought experiment that if no numbers can go between two numbers, those two numbers must be the same.
edit: this might be even easier:
1/3 = 0.333... -> multiply both sides by 3
3/3 = 0.999...
1 = 0.999...
an option that should not be considered = not optional
Very important report, but this case is baffling
Ismail al-Naqla, Mohammed’s brother and the father of Abdel Karim, told Amnesty International that their next-door neighbour received a call from the Israeli military at around 10:30am, warning that his building was about to be bombed. Ismail and Mohammed and their families left the building immediately, as did their neighbours. By 3:30pm, there had been no attack, so the al-Naqlas and others went home to collect necessities. Ismail explained that they had thought it would be safe to do so as five hours had elapsed since the warning, though they planned to leave again very quickly.
But as they were returning to their apartments, a bomb struck the building next door, destroying the al-Naqlas’ home and damaging others nearby. Mohammed and his family were still in the courtyard of their building when they were killed.
If you were warned that your home was a target why return with a bunch of children?
though they planned to leave again very quickly.
They knew it was still dangerous. If you need to get stuff from your home, your 3 and 5 year olds won't help with that. Leave them with Ismail and get capable adults to get in and out quickly. If your decision making in the face of risks is based on inshallah, if God wills it, then you can't complain if your God willed it.
This is all fucked up and their home should probably not have been a target in the first place. But they knew it was and brought their children there.
This is probably victim blaming but the decisions made in this case were very bad. Though of course it doesn't absolve the perpetrators.
I mostly enjoyed it but I never read the books so couldn't compare. Visually it's a treat. Apart from some things seeming a bit too "magic" I'd recommend it to sci fi fans.
