Talk:Stability

message: It's worth mentioning that the developers of many major software packages maintain "stable" and "unstable" branches of development, in reference to the frequency of disruptive changes to the codebase (backwards incompatible feature changes, major refactorings, and so on), rather than any tendency to crash (or not).  This distinction between feature-stability and runtime-stability (crash-proneness) can sometimes seem vague:  experimental new features in the "unstable" branch can (and often does) make it more unstable at runtime than the "stable" branch.  However, the reverse sometimes happens, when significant problems get fixed in the "unstable" branch first, before being merged to the "stable" branch at some later stage.  --Piet Delport 15:34, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Suggestions for additions 

message: This is by no means a trivial subject - like Nancy Mitford's 'U' and 'Non-U', 'dinner' is a great shiboleth of class in Britain at least. My family are from the Midlands; Solihull - which is quite an up market suburb of Birmingham. We had dinner at noon. At school we had 'School dinners' served by 'dinner ladies'. My older brother, on a school trip involving other schools - maybe a debating competition or a cadet field day, got talking to another boy from a 'posher' school, and the talk turned (goodness knows why) to the subject of school meals, and how much they cost. My brother explained that every Monday we handed over our 2/6d 'dinner money' for the week. The other boy was very puzzled, and a long and involved discussion at complete cross purposes ensued (neither knew of the other's usage). 'So you have a meal AFTER school do you, how extraordinary?' 'No, we have dinner at dinner time' and so on. It gradually dawned on my brother that the other called his evening meal 'dinner', and this is what posh people did, and he was showing himself up as a lower class than his companion. 'Oh - but *we* call that 'LUNCH'!' was the final repost. My brother learnt a life lesson in that moment.109.144.215.33 (talk) 22:42, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Thunderstorm

message: Thunderclouds also have a wide distribution of occurrences. These forms of clouds are able to form under the circumstance where warm, moist air collides with cool air fronts. Thunderclouds undergoes two stages of development: Cumulus and Mature. During the stage of Cumulus, the heat generated from the Sun's radiation warms up the Earth's crust and the air close towards it.
The warming of the air cause an updraft to form, allowing the warmed air to rise as warm air is less dense than normal oxygen. If the updraft contains water molecules, the rising of the updraft would cause the water molecules to condense forming a Cumulus cloud(there is less heat presented in higher attitudes). The continuation of condensation of the water molecules would allow the Cumulus cloud to reach greater volume. This ends the Cumulus stage. The next stage of mature starts off by the expansion of the Cumulus cloud. As the Cumulus cloud continues to reach larger size, the water molecules composed within the cloud becomes too heavy for the Cumulus to hold. The water molecules then fall downwards as water is denser than air in the atmosphere. While this phenomenon undergoes, the cool air(or downdraft) enter the now-less dense Cumulus cloud. This process is known as entrainment. Downdrafts, being heavier than updrafts causes the Cumulus cloud to descend. While descending, the downdraft forces down water molecules that form the precipitation of the thunderstorm. Once this process is complete, the Cumulus cloud is then transformed into a Cumulonimbus cloud. The Cumulonimbus cloud is the basic foundation of a thundercloud.

Talk:Design Patterns

message: The "Case study" section has been tagged as "contain[ing] an excessive amount of intricate detail that may interest only a particular audience," and indeed the section is a lengthy, play-by-play summary of one section of the Design Patterns book.

thread_title: Scarabeid beetle

message: One thing that I like about this article is that it has a solid overview of the beetle. I liked the description of the beetle’s color. Because this is a particularly remarkable feature, I think it is fitting that it has its own category. Additionally, something that is interesting about this article is that it has an extensive gallery of photos from every range of development, and different forms of motion for the beetle. This added a lot to my understanding of this beetle!
           One thing that I think could be added to this article is a section about habitat – I think it would be helpful to learn more about their habitat, discussing how their habitat impacts their behaviors, and how the habitat might be influenced by climate change. Additionally, I think it would be helpful to add a section about group behavior. One of the pictures included shows a group flying pattern for this beetle, implying extensive cooperation among the species—I would love to learn more about this! Finally, I would enjoy a section about mating behaviors—including details about egg laying, mating techniques, and any other behaviors of biology that impact reproductive fitness.

Talk:Lord Peter Wimsey

message: Can we get a decision as to which section her books belong in? Right now they are in both the main bibliography and the "by other authors". Aside from Thrones, Dominations a case could be made for either, but both is just silly. --Khajidha (talk) 19:17, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I have been bold and removed them from the "by other authors". My reasoning is that 1) Thrones, Dominations was a completion of Sayers' unfinished work, 2) A Presumption of Death incorporated material from The Wimsey Papers, and 3) those and the subsequent books were "written with the co-operation and approval of Sayers' estate" (as stated in the articles for the later titles). To me, this puts them in a different class than other works. I am not averse to doing things the other way round, but a return to the double listing should not be made. --Khajidha (talk) 14:48, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

text: I strongly disagree with the approach of regarding the Paton Walsh books as "canonical". They should be treated separately from Sayers' original stories. I particularly dislike the note in the first sentence that Wimsey is "later the 17th Duke of Denver", with no indication that this is not based on the work of Sayers. I suggest that the main article be written from the perspective of Sayers's published work only, with a section towards the end detailing Paton Walsh's developments.
