I was referring to electrocaloric, and Stirling engine heat pumps.

Pointless discussion, but they’re all heat pumps. Refrigeration cycle is the name of the physical process. Most heat pumps make use of that thermodynamic principle, but there are some niche ones that don’t. But people don’t care about that, and so find it more useful to call them by what their purpose is, and that varies locally.
I never see refrigerators being called AC either, and they’re air-to-air heat pumps too. People just call things what they want regardless of the technical details.
But can it be solved by throwing less sensors at the problem? Cause that’s what he’s been doing. Removing sensors from the newer versions that were in the older ones.
Same for me. I don’t understand why, I should love it but I don’t.
Just to clarify, the one that said that is actually one of the oldest far right parties in the country, not one of those that just popped up.
Yes, so?
Cooperatives, employee-owned companies, etc.
I’m not the one who suggested regulations. For me, corporations shouldn’t exist at all.
They’re suggesting regulating corporations properly.
Low skill users will use what comes installed on their machine, so installation quirks like that are not relevant for them. They don’t install Windows either.
What exactly is the utility of the above quote of yours then?
To show that the correlation is spurious at best.
Has it become even more successful after he’s mellowed out?
Yes, it has. Usage of Linux has been growing over the years.
My point is exactly that. It’s not obvious, and as such you can’t attribute the success of Linux to his behaviour. Like the OP said, there’s no logic in looking at something successful and picking a singular thing to be responsible.
How is that obvious? Especially because it’s become even more successful after he’s mellowed out?
The analogy is that the end result doesn’t justify the behaviour from the person in power. It’s apt.
But did it work because of the style or in spite of it? No reason to believe it wouldn’t be even more successful if he had been less abrasive like he is now.
Most ACs nowadays can do both. And are actually more efficient at heating.
