Manual DC Demotion [modified]
-
Has anyone here ever had to manually demote a DC? You have to do about 100 steps, where a few say 'look everywhere' and delete this or that. This task took forever and many of those tasks we aren't 100% are done. Some say 'as best practice' and terms like that. What happened to my favorite company, Microsoft? I still love that company but still... This sucked.
The only way to speed up a Macintosh computer is at 9.8 m/sec/sec.

Reread that. 9.8m/sec/sec is the speed of gravity, I hope you get it now, if not, I can't help you.

Or go with 9.8m/sec²

It makes a little more sense, I think it needs to be reworded.

It is a quote. I'll fix it, I never look at it, I don't know why I don't have the person who said it stated.

Only for the benefit of people who don't know that the value given represents gravity. I got it.

That's acceleration, not speed.
My mistake. Thanks for the correction. It is surprising how many don't know physics, I personnally think it should be a required course. It was one of my favorite classes.

Some people need more help than this forum, or any forum for that matter, can give.

But "speeding up" a computer has nothing to do with acceleration, so now the quote makes no sense at all.

If an object accelerates, it's speed increases, doesn't it ?

Of course, but just because its speed increases doesn't mean it accelerated to get there. If my machine is faster today than it was yesterday just because I turned it off and added memory to it then turned it back on, that does not represent acceleration in any physical sense, as in gravity for example.

I agree. Some universities and colleges do not require physics in the Computer Science/Computer Engineering programs. I went to one university that let the student choose between physics/geology/chemistry. I started to go the geology way, but wound up with physics when I went to the last college I was at (they didn't give the option of these three different areas). I ended up really liking physics alot :-D

It would if you threw it out the window, which I think was the point of the quote. :)

Well, yes, but all I'm saying is that the original quote made more sense with "speed up" than it does with accelerate. "The only way to speed up a mac is to throw it out the window" is better than "The only way to accelerate a mac is to throw it out the window".

I agree In a physical sense to speed up requires an acceleration, which is in reference to this statement:

Yes, I agree. The ambiguity made the joke fun. Now it's just, "ok, physics 101 - ha ha :zzz:"

You know, I was taught the imperial system as a kid. Then the government switched to metric. When I did my physics degree I used all metric, so physical measurements pertaining to scientific papers only make sense to me in metric. If you tell me how much you weigh in kilograms or the outside temperature in degrees Celsius, it's meaningless to me. I need it in pounds and Fahrenheit. So 32 feet/sec/sec is like fingers on a chalkboard to me, but saying you weigh 180 lbs is nice!
