  • With a masters degree in mathematics, my response when someone wants me to do mental math is something like, "I can barely even count", in reference to combinatorics, while I pull out my phones calculator.

  • Oh yeah, I've ate almost everyday since I was in the womb. Now, I eat at least 2000 calories every. single. day. A fascists balls would vaporize when I lick them.

    Also cooperatives exists, and in many ways are more successful than their traditional capitalistic counterparts, providing a system to help "reconcile egoistic actors" by rewarding cooperation and solidarity rather than competition and utility maximization.

  • What is a big internal debate within a fandom or hobby you are a part of that outsiders probably wouldn't care about?

  • Exactly how planes fly. I studied a bit of fluid dynamics in grad school and my professor was adamant that any explanation is incomplete without discussion of boundary layers.

    In short the explanation was a couple things. The first is how ping pong balls generate lift with translation and rotation (or vorticity). Its basically the shape of the wing that helps with vorticity (this is what generates the pressure difference above and below the wing). The second is that you need laminar flow over the wing for vorticity to take place, and this is achieved when a thin layer of turbulent air surrounds it, the boundary layer. It moves the stagnation points towards the back (encouraging laminar flow) and reducing drag.

    The same process is the reason golf balls have dimples on them, to help form a turbulent boundary layer, moving the stagnation pounts, reducing drag and allowing the ball to go further.

    "Tripping the boundary layer" can be achieved by increasing speed on the runway, a strong head wind, rough spots on the wing, or how you might see windsurfers pump their sail, or someone pumping on a hydrofoil board in the water.

  • Keep things as simple as you can. I swear people make their lives more difficult than it has to be. Get rid of stuff, cancel your subscriptions, keep your living space clean, give xanax a try, sell your kids.. That kind of thing. But otherwise, when something comes up, you just kind of deal with it.

  • You don't have to go spelunking if you don't want to. Turn the cover inside out, lay the duvet on top, tie off the corners if you have ties, and turn it all back right side over.

  • California Wants to Put License Plates on E-Bikes and Slow Them Down. Cyclists Are Not Happy About It

    Jump

  • I just don't see anything wrong with the current regulation on class 1 and 2 ebikes. Casual cyclists on an analog bike can already achieve speeds of 20 mph, at least for a short time. In fact, those speeds are often essential in certain situations in car centric towns/cities. As someone that used to commute by bike in the city, at times I'd have felt safer if I could have gone a little faster.

  • Pretty convinced its mostly always projection, so in this case the trans hate is actually self hate. Maybe someone should send jkr some testosterone.

  • Do you know any songs about trains?

    Jump

  • So true.

  • I mostly talk about cooperatives. Sometimes I'll explain its a form of stateless socialism, but the point is that workers or members own the means of production. Multi stakeholder models can still be compatible with the current shitstain that is public ownership. In which case the biggest issues can be somewhat mitigated by worker elected board member control. We need governmental support, laws, regulation, subsidies, tax breaks, etc for cooperatives, but capitalist will always argue they just need to compete in the market like everyone else. You know like how traditional capitalist firms compete with subsidies, tax breaks, favorable regulations and laws, bailouts, etc.

  • That's because the seven tenents don't ask for blind loyalty to a god that most likely doesn't exist. Its more about freedom, reason and empathy.

    I One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.

    II The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.

    III One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.

    IV The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.

    V Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs.

    VI People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused.

    VII Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.
