"Rounding error" = lỗi làm tròn -> nghĩa là điểm khác biệt giữa con số toán học chuẩn và con số ước lượng trong quá trình tính toán; nghĩa khác là một con số xếp riêng có giá trị lớn nhưng lại tương đối nhỏ khi xếp cùng số khác.
Ví dụ
Say a car company builds a factory that will last 20 years, and only has to spend a little every year to maintain it. In such a situation, depreciation (mất giá) isn’t a real cost, as the maintenance capital expenditure is a rounding error relative to the annual cost of the depreciation (assuming the factory doesn’t have to be totally rebuilt in 20 years, which is always a big “if”).
Similarly, the Tesla Cybertruck is delayed (hoãn) until the end of 2022 for all the same reasons. The Cybertruck also needs batteries and chips, but the Model Y and Model 3 are using up all the batteries and chips Tesla can get at the moment. (Well, of course, the Model S and Model X are using a few too, but those are practically a rounding error at this point.)
“He’s able to put his foot in the ground and—boom!—pop right through a hole and acceleratec(tăng tốc). Barry Sanders was the same way,” Rogers said. “And his ability to run through tackles is Earl Campbell.”
In reality, there is no crisis (khủng hoảng), and the effects of climate change on the standards of living of people around the world is today — and will be next decade and even next century — essentially a rounding error compared to the critical factors for social improvement, such as the degree of economic freedom people are allowed to enjoy.
