this is regardless of that. The meme explains it a bit wierdly, but we start with 17 squares, and try to find most efficient packing, and outer square’s size is determined by this packing.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Peasants⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
I have a script which fetches bib entries for pdfs, and then renames it to my prefered format (names of author (no more than 2) - name of paper).

in case you are interested
```
#!/usr/bin/env sh

newnamefn(){
	bib="$(pdf2bib "$1")"
	name="$(echo "$bib" | grep "title = " | cut -d'{' -f 2 | cut -d'{' -f 1 )"
	authors=$(echo "$bib" | grep "author = " | cut -d'{' -f 2 | cut -d'{' -f 1  | sed -z 's/\ and\ /\n/g' | head -n 2 | tr '\n' ' ')
	echo "$authors-$name" | detox --inline
}

for i in "$@" ; do 
	newname="$(newnamefn "$i")" 
	mv "$i" "${i%/*}/$newname".pdf
done
```
detox --inline is just a utility which makes the file names shell friendly (removes special characters and spaces), but that is optional. Also, technically the newnamefn is what does all of the job, and below is just a loop to iterate on all files that are given as input like script file1 “file2” file3, where file2 had some special characters, so enclosed in “” quotes. you can also translate it to python, then you would not even require sed and grep (you can just get output in json-esque format). I have a small keybinding in my file manager, which renames all selected files, so I do not have to spend any amount of my mind

you can make it work in any os (maybe use some llm for it), you just have to install pdf2bib

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Material scientist wet dream⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
most solids and liquids are practically incompressible (when comparing with gasses). there is a relationship between bulk compressibility, shear stress and youngs modulus for solids, which can be extended for liquids. It does not work for gasses

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are roundabouts made?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
Well it depnds on what amount of cost you want to put in, and how are you making the roundabout, and are you going to put something on it, and essentially wht budgets you have. Where I live, we almost always have some statues or soemthing put on them.

They are made with essentially make shift compasses where I live. This is what is done for a roundabout of radius, lets say in ball park of 5-10 m. Initially marking is done (this is simply done by measuring out a tape of desired radius, and holding wwhen end at center, and other person revolvinng around it, and laying down something - could be simple as white chalk, or use jackhammer to make actual indents to ground, or lay down some bricks) This will serve as guide for curve, and any further curved elements could be made by just maintaining a constant distance from this circumference. Then the interior is usually dug to lay a foundation for whatever you put on it (could be as simple as excavating, and just plastering, but that is still expensive, often manually digging and then laying a firm dirt layer is enough). then it is covered with something (could be custom designed pizza slice shaped stone or marble wedges, but usually just bricks or cinderblocks). While making, we do not really make a great curved edge, and just make a n-gon, where n can be 20 or 50 or 100. This is simpler because straight edged bricks are cheaps, and you can lay them vertical, filling the gaps with plaster. The depending on your budget, you could get great finishing, again done with applying plaster, but this time, excess is applied, and some is removed, so we get a curved edge. Now you mostly have the exterior ready. On the top, you could have marble or stone, which can be grinded to match the curved edge, or it could be a thin plaster layer, which will take the shape of boundary.

maybe it is because being so weak, it allows things to be come together, and eventually be strong enough, by power of family.

this is my work. Our revious results showed correct trend, but, r^2 = 0.2
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Damn⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
in simplification, you could derive that curvature of the orbit is basically the force between objects, with radius, from the centre of mass. Once you know curvature at a point, you ca define a series of curves fitting, and substitute with other postions to find all constants. And what is curvature? you can find online, that curvature is just a function of second order derivative, and you just have to solve a second degree differential equation.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Surely this is the radical islam people are so concerned about⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
No, this is radio-labelled radical islam, the star denotes the radio labelling, in this case, a neutron extra, the stable version has a mass of 786, with n = 478 and p = 308, n/p ratio of 1.551948051948052, which just so happens to be the highest n/p ratio of a stable element.

spoiler
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron–proton_ratio islamichorizons.net/the-myth-of-786 Also, I did not really knew of 786, I know that people collect stuff with 786 (my dad also had a few crrency notes with serial ending in 786) but did not know it had no officially recognised significance, just numerology and alphabet-numeric conversion

No, It is actually the light produced that we can actually use as a energy source, the limiting thing is, before completely loosing its kinetic energy to frictional heat, stuff falls into black hole, from where we can not get anymore energy back. If black hole is stationary, then its 6%, and if its spinning (and assuming the fastest spinning theoretically possible) - 42% (spinning black holes are smaller and have smaller radius of no-return

they are kinda a gender neutral.

Bro is fairly commonly used as gender neutral word.

Man (as in my man) does not have an equivalent (my person does not havve the ring) - but originally, man was the gender neutral term for persons, and we user mer (as in mermaid) / were (as in werewolf) for males. that is how man was used. But that very well could also be due to bias in writing and archiving of stuff, I don not know much about this.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ONE OF US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
probably spend about billion dollars to make some particle accelerators, or ask some existing lab to let you move all your stuff into there lab, since ognassen would not last for even a second (all nearby elements are basically same in this, ognassen being most stable), so you would have to move your collection to their lab to have a “complete” set
