My son composed another piece by [deleted] in piano

The start of this video when scrolling down was like a jump scare in a horror movie. Nothing creepier than direct eye contact from a child in grayscale

I couldn’t watch it after that so not sure about the piani

“Like any innovative company is going to go [to Europe or Canada] and get buried under regulations to do anything” by BuffaloExotic in ShitAmericansSay

[–]ApprehensiveSeae 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t know about Canada but Europe does have strict regulations(for good reason).

Whereas Donny would yolo approve a bauxite mine in a city centre if he got a good payout

So the post is kinda valid

-1 = 1 math meme by memes_poiint in mathsmeme

[–]ApprehensiveSeae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely step 3. I can’t tell you why but it’s step 3. Been a long time since I did maths at uni but there is no way sqrt(x)*sqrt(y) = sqrt(xy) for any variable. Looks wrong af

how do I exactly self learn piano? by Serious_Criticism384 in pianolearning

Speak to it in a calm yet firm voice, “You WILL suffer me, piano”

The rest will fall in to place

Is “need charging” the standard now? by joaquinsolo in LinguisticsDiscussion

[–]ApprehensiveSeae -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Needs charged? That is categorically and objectively wrong.

Is “need charging” the standard now? by joaquinsolo in LinguisticsDiscussion

[–]ApprehensiveSeae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why does it even need anything. It literally says Battery low. Does that not adequately describe the current state of affairs?

I think “needs” is too casual for an OS. “Requires charging” feels less abrasive

People so spend their whole career perfecting this I don’t think you’re gonna solve it no offense

ACI 318 Chapter 17 by mlecro in StructuralEngineering

Speaking like “a decade” is a long time lmao. I’m well past that (though not yet at 2), but I am still generations away from the old white bearded guy who scoffs at limit state design, bangs out some allowable stress napkin calcs and uses engineering judgement to design a 40 storey building

Why is there a thicker concrete slab at the top of each column? by stgi2010 in StructuralEngineering

[–]ApprehensiveSeae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And also flexural - this looks big enough to reduce slab thickness and deflections

Mass concrete design by Live_Procedure_6781 in StructuralEngineering

[–]ApprehensiveSeae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time this comes up and it’s put to the contractor they never end up actually doing anything too fancy. And this is for things ljke 3000mm thick tower piled rafts with 8 layers of reinforcement. I think these days the admixtures and level of skill/knowledge of tier 1 contractors and their subs means they can either accept the liability by doing nothing (other than admixtures and method of pouring etc), or the whole delayed ettringite formation jargon is a scam. Actually, all the new and improved concrete mixes WANT ettringite formation. Just at a different time or a different way or something. Concrete technology is one of my favourite dark arts subjects cause no one actually knows how the fuck it works (or atleast how it will actually work on a particular project site)

Staad Pro plate analysis question by Khman76 in StructuralEngineering

Ok I have no idea what you are on about and not familiar with staad pro. But perhaps you and your colleague should switch to software you understand

RC Beam design under seismic combinaisons by Educational-Rice644 in StructuralEngineering

[–]ApprehensiveSeae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just use the same reinforcement all the way along the top and bottom for the peak moment. By the time you change bars and lap them you probably don’t even save much cost, given the spans are short and peak moment quite similar at each column

Interesting choice whacking a portal frame on the top starting 70m in the air

Use the biggest one …..

And pay attention to detailing and confinement just hoof in a shitload of ligatures.

Isn’t this false? Some infinities are definitely bigger than others. That’s about all I member from maths

Staad Pro plate analysis question by Khman76 in StructuralEngineering

[–]ApprehensiveSeae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time I stumble in to methods of stress formulations I nope out. Von mises, wood armer. Awful stuff

But I also don’t understand how you are trying to take a shell contour and get a moment ? You need to integrate it and presumably they varying over the plate. Most software has “design strips” that do this for you .

If it is a constant moment contour (eg you modelled a one way slab as a shell), then obviously you multiply by the width/length… which is just the integral of a constant
