That math doesn't check out at all. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [β] Hupf@feddit.de 12 points 2 years ago It is an older math, Sir. I was going to let them pass. permalink fedilink source parent [β] agent_flounder@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) Naw, it just means everyone will have two Linux computers! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago I mean, I currently have 3 linux computers.. sooooo... permalink fedilink source parent [β] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago* (1 child) Ok, 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. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) If you don't think of the increase in speed of new users as continuing to increase exponentially. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago Isn't that the point of the exponent in the exponential function? permalink fedilink source parent
