  Car? No way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m genuinely curious: are there adverse effects to an arrangement where the right lane is used by large trucks going 90-100 kph, middle lanes used for normal traffic going 120-130 kph and the left lane kept open for faster traffic? As far as I understand, these issues arise when cars go back and forth between lanes all the time, or when cars go slower than the ones behind them without an open lane to overtake them. If you pick a lane and stay in it, you might cause the second issue

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “Pick a lane and stay in it” leads to slow drivers blocking the left lane, no?

  So someone is getting married to three definitions of the Taylor expansion and 2 examples in a trenchcoat (not depicted)? I understand even less now.

  Why waste time thinking when you could already be drawing random samples

  Assuming this effect existed, wouldn’t the memory of the water be polluted with all kind of things (as water is recycled all the time)? The specific water molecules you are ingesting probably spent considerable time (considering the age of the earth and all water on it) as saltwater. If longer exposure makes the memory stronger, you should be getting a lethal dose of salt quite easily

  Taylor expansion of ln is getting married to the definition of a Taylor expansion?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Milliamp-hours per hour⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, this seems like a metric specifically chosen s.t. it makes intuitive sense to the average person AND it has a nice physical interpretation. Similar to how EU efficiency labels show power draw in W as kWh per 1000h of use

  Real talk though, I wish everything was built s.t. you could disassemble it, understand how it works and repair most issues yourself. For more complex devices, that could mean swapping an entire module for a replacement rather than repairing it, which is something that everyone should be able to do. Selling things that are un-repairable on purpose should be a criminal offense in a world where resources and energy have to be conserved.

  Check if your insurance refunds the cost. In Germany, it’s only paid directly by the insurance for kids, but many insurances refund a large portion of the cost if you get it before you’re 25-ish.

  Yes but you don’t dehydrate the food. And you’re not eating multiple kgs of mushrooms in a single sitting, which you would need to get anywhere close to the total amount of protein in other ‘protein’ options

  Isn’t g typically used for the gravity of earth? And G for the general gravitational constant (independent of mass) in Newton’s gravity law?
