Comment on Say hello to Bary
ProgrammingSocks@pawb.social 2 weeks agoI mean, sure, but you can reasonably glean that I’m just talking about the fact that any 2 objects with mass exert gravity on each other. This post is facebook-tier

I can’t reasonably glean that, because the OP clearly says this:
I agree that OP is facebook-tier but your reply is reddit-tier :P

You’re being pedantic to levels most redditors could only dream of. Barycenter aren’t even necessarily outside the 2 objects, if you took the OP to mean that, it’s incorrect information anyways.

The OP does not claim that all barycenters are outside of the sun. OP correctly claims that Jupiter & Sun orbit a certain point, and that point is known as the “barycenter,” and that point is outside the sun. I’ll admit they could have gone further to convey the additional curiosity that for other planets the sun-planet barycenter is within the sun, but then it might not be facebook-tier anymore.
