  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?

  What makes you think that? Nazi Germany was very interested in science and engineering, at least in the disciplines that develop weapons.

  I played the first Stalker game for the first time recently, and if you save while undetected, then get detected and load your save, you’ll still be detected. Almost drove me mad.

  This thing sounds like it would eat more power within a month than its hardware is worth. This is fine for a proof of concept, but not much more.

  That’s not how probabilities work. The market share in the US is P(has iPhone | resident of US), but we’re looking for P(resident of US | has iPhone), which according to Bayes’ law is equal to the market share in the US (see above) times P(resident of US) [aka US pop. / world pop.] divided by P(has iPhone) [aka global market share]. So essentially, while the market share in the US may be twice as high as the global average, the US has fewer than half of all people in the world - making it more likely that the person is not from the US than that they are.

  What printer do you have? If it has a (micro) USB port, you can most likely set up OctoPi on a raspberry pi, connect the Pi to your printer and print over the network.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Owned (stocks)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  An index is something like S&P 500 - a (weighted) collection of different stock. Instead of buying a single stock, you could replicate this index, by splitting your money across all of its stocks. That way your risk is somewhat reduced, as the failure of a single company will not wipe out your entire investment. But that would be a lot of effort, as you’d constantly have to buy and sell stocks to match the index. For that, there are index funds. These are just big funds with a lot of money, which they spread over many stocks to replicate an index. You, in turn, can then buy shares of that index fund. These are typically traded at an exchange as well, hence the name exchange traded fund (ETF). Investing in the right ETF allows you to invest into the economy as a whole, and reduces risk from individual stocks.

  Keep th money you need short-term for your business. Put the rest in index funds. With 100k lying around like that, you lose a few thousand dollars per year to inflation.

  When I woke up this morning, I didn’t anticipate I’d be spending 15 minutes reading about how horses walk, but it was well worth that time!
