  It still works like this if you use LaTeX :)

  The only complaints I’ve ever heard about 60fps are from gamers who prefer higher refresh rates. Does anyone advocate for framerates to be lower than 60??

  Car? No way.

  Seems fun, but is this case really gonna sit somewhere you actually see it? That seems awfully noisy when you add a few hard drives.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indoor lettuce growing in 3D printed pots⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll have to check lettuce prices next time I’m at the grocery store, but there’s no way I’m paying $5 for a head of lettuce. And for reference, those 60W running 24/7 would be close to 12€ in electricity per month for me. Growing with artificial light seems like something worth doing for e.g. super spicy chilis or cannabis (if you’re into either), but I never would’ve thought of lettuce.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Make it make sense ⁩ ⁨⁨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 ⁨Indoor lettuce growing in 3D printed pots⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not to hate on your hobby, but why would you grow lettuce using artificial light? Doesn’t seem very economical given that lettuce is typically not very expensive

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Make it make sense ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

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

  He’s not being pedantic, he’s just obviously not familiar with the vocabulary used in chemistry (although he pretends to be).

  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

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨when ur higher than sagan⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  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

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YAYAYA CONGRATS!!!!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  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

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Turn linux server into a router?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A router is not a network switch is not a wireless access point. Using the machine as a router works with one ethernet port.

  I would still not recommend this approach, as your network will be unusable when this machine goes down.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big O vs Hardware: Better Complexity ≠ Better Performance⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  TL;DR: Big-O notation describes asymptotic behavior

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gotta go fox taming⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  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.
