I wouldn’t call him desperate, I would call him time constrained with money to enjoy. He probably won’t actually use it for that, he’ll probably dive into his video game addiction more.

Plus, he says that virtual ladies can’t betray him like the dumb fuck of his ex wife that pretty much ruined his self confidence and self esteem to the point where he doesn’t actually think he could experience the required vulnerability in other people ever again, and it’s been 5 years since the first time she cheated on him.

But he really does appreciate the concern.

The guy who is asking has some stuff in that department, he’s more interested in the visuals now

I’ve had my valve index for 5 years and never heard about bit rate affecting it - what am I looking for?

Someone who is not me wants to know how big of a difference would there be between like a 2070 super and a 4090 for some of that stuff?

They also want to know if there’s some more recent stuff they don’t know about yet.

It will. I’ve lost ~70 lbs since moving out.

I got a promotion, got some recognition at work. House prices are stupid so I’m going to keep renting until living anywhere doesn’t make sense.

I’m thinking about leasing a BMW gran coupé.

My hair has been thinning into a crown for a while, so I’m considering just going bald and owning it. Look more confident at least, if not youthful.

Regardless how it all plays out, I’m better now. Won’t look back.

I moved out a while ago, the divorce is taking forever.

Man my mental and physical health hasn’t been better.

She was hot, but goddamn, hot ain’t worth what I went through.

Oh jeez. It’s been so long since I’ve seen that thank you.

But 4real tho my marriage was a hollow shell and a cruel charade

I don’t know what this is referring to but I felt that deep inside my chest

Nobody knows.

JK

I think it’s because Benchy has a crazy amount of changing surfaces and is easily printable with or without supports, scales better, and doesn’t take terribly long to print.

You know, everyone I see uses that tug boat print for their calibration, but what you made here was far more intricate and beneficial.

That’s the weird part - they have some stuff based on experiences, like dropping my kid off at school, and being in a baseball stadium. The missile landing looked similar to an artillery napalm round in Helldivers, but the wedding, the glitter bomb, the baseball stadium my parents in NYC, in a bunker? Yeah not exactly stuff I’m familiar with.

I remember another dream where I was being driven to school as a kid, and giant flying saucers descend from the sky and start firing green lasers into the ground. Or a time in hypnosis where I talked to an Eldritch entity consisting of an eyeball and tentacles that’s connected to all of us that is the reason we get stress headaches because we try to pull them off (yeah).

My mind is weird

Totally feel that. Constant stress and anxiety manifesting in mine

If you have used Matlab, Or R, there is a huge range of data science that only really requires an undergrad in math. Hospitals that run their own Clinical Trials usually have a consistent need.

Really you’re eligible for anything statistics related, and there is a lot out there. Some job titles to look for:

1. Data Scientist
2. Statistical Analyst
3. Statistical Programmer
4. Signal Analyst (this is usually government related)
5. Data curator

The math is describing reality - but that’s why I highlighted that the math predicted it long before there was experimental evidence.

From what we know about the quantum realm (my physics professor liked using that description, as if it’s a whole different existence), it appears that it’s actually the opposite: reality is obeying the math. Consider how wild that is - particle interactions are doing what they do because of how mathematics works. Something that we humans came up with to describe observations.

So the way I “understood” the spin-statistics theorem is that it’s basically this:

A given particle with a given intrinsic spin has a direct relationship to a collection of the same particles as a consequence of quantum math. Yeah. Just “it’s related.”

Proving that math is really freaking difficult and you need to use relativistic quantum field theory. I think it was Richard Feynman who said “We apologize for the fact that we cannot give you an elementary explanation.”

Actually when I graduated there was another professor (can’t remember his name) who was discussing his frustration with how they still can’t explain it without all of QFT steps.

Basically, this is where the shared attitude of “the more you know about quantum physics, the more confusing it becomes.”

It’s a lot more complicated than that even.

Pauli Exclusion Principal is that two or more identical particles of half integer spin cannot occupy the same quantum state. So two electrons in an orbital must be made of a +1/2 and -1/2 spin. This is evidenced by observation, but the prediction was made long before that.

This is because the total wave function for fermions is antisymmetric (bosons, like the photon, are symmetric). It’s sort of hard to describe how this works without paper and pen, but essentially there is different formula of solving a wave function. A symmetric wave function is a sum, and an antisymmetric wave function is a difference. The issue arises when you have two identical particles - symmetric functions can be any state as it results in a solution >0. If you have an assymetric function of two identical particles, the result is 0, which isn’t a valid state.

The very uncomfortable part of physics is here: when we ask “why” the answer based on the math and the observation is quite literally “because that is the way math works.” It’s fundamental - just like x * 0 = 0.

That works too. It just needs to get caught in a single prop for it to go down

You know, there’s no reason we can’t have anti-drone fireworks.

They don’t really even need dangerous amounts of explosives, they just need a strong net to get caught in a prop.

Drones are pretty damn slow if you compare it to a rocket.

“must do now” orders are by default responded to with “oh yeah, on who’s authority?”

So I feel that.

Dude that’s awesome thanks!
