Most ACs nowadays can do both. And are actually more efficient at heating.

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.

Yeah but that means not everyone is switching to EVs, which is the point of the person you’re replying to.

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?

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.

They’re different things. The OP means electromagnetism, Coulomb’s law has nothing to do with quantum mechanics, it’s classical physics.

The relation between them is that they’re both forces that scale with the inverse square of the distance between the objects. Any force that scales with the inverse square of distance has pretty much the same general form.

Another similarity is that both are incomplete, first approximations that describe their respective forces. The more complete versions are Maxwell’s laws for electromagnetism and General Relativity for gravity.

It’s electromagnetism you mean, not quantum mechanics.
