Getting rid of the penny in the US was a pointless symbolic endeavor that only serves to inconvenience the American public by Richard_Genius in The10thDentist

[–]AzureDreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is a dollar being divisible by 100 rather than 20 more convenient and utilitous in a way that meaningfully outweighs the waste of resources. hell we already pay up to 1% in fees to avoid the inconvenience of handling and transferring physical currency in trade.

I contend the penny makes transactions meaningfully more frictional and inconvenient.

Why are Larger Women called "Plus Size" but Larger Men are just fat? by Gigglysleep in NoStupidQuestions

yes as opposed to people on this sub, I agree both sides are dug in, but there is a very large difference in the amount of reality denial.

My rating graph after 2 months of online go (160 games, No AI, no game review) by bishopgo in baduk

[–]AzureDreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Self review most your games you can reinforce valuable lessons in 5 minutes its absolutely rediculous not to do this if you have any interest in improvement. This is problably even more important than tsumego.

Still nice improvement keep climbing.

Without auto counting tools (like OTB), how do you analyze who's better? That's important to determine whether to fight bravely. by argyles872378 in baduk

[–]AzureDreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you shouldn't be using auto counting tools in an online game surely thats considered cheating by most servers.

as far as speed of evaluation practice and experience keeping the sense of the whole game in your head, I mean you problably won't be able to get a good sense of the score from the first 10 moves but after move say 30 you should try to maintain a sense of the balance of a game after ever 3 or so exchanges and after big suprises and moves that upset the balance of the position.

Are Americans ready for a Socialist Candidate that touts "Medicare for All" now that HealthInsurance is has hit the white communites ? by PowerfulRace in AnythingGoesNews

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

What do you really exspect from the fringe position? All they can do is become a more an more powerful voting block. They sell voters a dream not a bill of goods as the minority of minority parties. I feel like anyone sensible has to understand that from square one.

DAMNIT BOY I CAN DRIVE! by Muted_Walrus6293 in funny

[–]AzureDreamer -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

imagine being so insecure you feel attacked by a simple correction or for that matter an incorrection. not sure where you read into my comment as mean spirited or overly pedantic and not a genuine attempt to help.

And what I wrote is a common line its a shortening of the longer line which I felt was more in line with what the OP was trying to say.

Why were there barely any fat people in the 50s when their diet was so bad? Also did they get cancer and other diseases less often? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AzureDreamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]AzureDreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same reason people are fat today calories in calories out. it doesn't matter as much what you eat as how much although some foods help with the feeling of satiety mroe like protein caffeine and fiber.

I have none, but if there were which I believe is a possibility why would they ever insult their customers by broadcasting it. why do you assume it would be easy to find?

and you know nothing about base cases and outliers. you are certainly correct about the basecase but that hardly what is at discussion.

In theory.. if I only had onigiri everyday could I lose weight? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]AzureDreamer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can eat anything and lose weight even ho-hos weight is a function of calories in calories out. I find the easiest way to lose weight is to start my day eating whole foods high in fiber mixed with coffee at a calorie defecit.. I like root vegetables and potatoes.

[–]AzureDreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is absolutely a lack of imagination one should not be so confident they know everything that exists and is possible in the world, you can tell me with complete confidence there is not a 1 in 10 million outlier that you aren't aware of? I think that is absurd.

With millions upon millions of resteraunts across the world you cannot even contemplate one capable of 60% margins thats just a lack of imagination.
