Maybe my wording wasn't great, I didn't want to say the folding itself is a problem, the problem is that the aspect ratios of the two are dependent on each other, making unusual so…

The Lenovo Yoga Book is quite different in the sense that the multi-screens are never really viewed as a single form. One screen is more of an input device, while the other is what…

I'm not saying "aspect ratios don't work, therefore the whole thing's a bust", just that we should expect that one or other of the devices will be quite a bit different from what w…

I'm considering the assumption that the tablet aspect is primarily for watching TV/films, meaning letterboxing is essentially a bezel.

What exactly aren't you convinced of?

Not saying it's a problem for development. I've just seen people ask why the screens have odd aspect ratios.

I was wrong on the tablets, I was meaning an ideal tablet for watching TV/films which is mostly 16:9 or 18:9. Tablets typically are 4:3, which would result in a phone being 3:2 whi…

I know there isn't a typical size, but the trend has been towards taller phones. The desire to keep to the aspect ratio isn't about conforming to old phones but conforming to the a…

I've seen people comment on these articles asking why the aspect ratios were so weird, and why not 18:9 for both? Perhaps, they were just joking, who knows? Regardless, an 18:18 sc…

As I mentioned a 1:1 screen (if you want to watch your content in an assumed 18:9 native content) will at most take up half of the tablet screen. Meaning your content will be shown…

I'm saying it's irreconcilable that the phone be like phones we know now (18:9, minimum bezels), and the tablet be like tablets we know now (18:9, minimum bezels). If we have eithe…

I'd be quite happy with it too. The issue is that the tablet side will have the same aspect ratio, which isn't ideal for film/TV.

"Give it a couple iterations, a little trial and error and you'll probably get your aspect ratio or tiny bezels." Did you read the rest of the post? I'm saying that mathetmatically…

Our number system is base 10. The choice was arbitrary, I just wanted enough episodes to reduce the noise in the average ratings.

Or if I'd just used R correctly. The code surely isn't best practice in R, just kind of hashed together. I had actually started doing this in Python, but my limited knowledge of Py…

I didn't assume a causal relationship. In the last line I state that a change in writers may not have caused a decline in quality, but the change in the make-up of the writing team…

An interesting thing I came across writing this: the top writers, Bill Oakley and Josh Weinstein, were showrunners for seasons 7 and 8, immediately stepping down after as: Oakley a…

Your wording here suggests that the later episodes were simply rated lower because they were later. However, I think your point is that the later episodes got worse ratings for som…

Some of the top writers I picked out (Bill Oakley, Josh Weinstein, David X/S Cohen) are involved in it, but I agree it's not great.

I still watch the old episodes on an almost daily basis, so I don't know if that's true for everyone.
