minus-squareTropicalDingdong@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up26arrow-down1·2 年前 What if its exponential growth? Then we should expect that in ~35 years, 200% of users will be using desktop linux.
minus-squareColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·2 年前The math chec…wait, no. That math doesn’t check out at all.
minus-squareHupf@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·2 年前It is an older math, Sir. I was going to let them pass.
minus-squareagent_flounder@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 年前Naw, it just means everyone will have two Linux computers!
minus-squareA_Random_Idiot@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 年前I mean, I currently have 3 linux computers… sooooo…
minus-squareTropicalDingdong@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·2 年前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.
minus-squareColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 年前If you don’t think of the increase in speed of new users as continuing to increase exponentially.
minus-squareTropicalDingdong@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·2 年前Isn’t that the point of the exponent in the exponential function?
minus-squareTlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down1·2 年前Linux on the main and second computers‽ Wow!

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)

Running a linux vm on linux
yo dawg…
