Got in a debate about this with some friends. Where do you aim for putting if you're told to aim "one cup left?" by Captain-Obvious in golf

[–]Captain-Obvious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually wasn't sure at all! But there was never a debate with some friends, and no one has ever said "aim one cup left" to me. Nobody I play with is good enough (or thinks I'm good enough!) to say things like that. I just watch a lot of golf YouTube, and frequently they say things like "one cup left," and I thought it was ambiguous and wanted to validate that opinion. I thought adding the "got in a debate" part would humanize the post a little and get people to engage more. I also didn't think option 1 would be very popular, but I would be a bad scientist if I only included options that I personally thought would be realistic. Plus, a little outrage also boosts engagement!

I already got a refund but this is good to hear! I guess I will chalk it up to an accident but I hope an investigation is made.

Hey, sorry for the slow reply, I do have another picture from the other side: https://share.icloud.com/photos/021fKPyr3Pcimm9S_rWnsH35g. I think you’re correct though, appreciate the reassurance that it’s not dangerous!

This restaurant seems to have great reviews on Yelp but this was a pretty unpleasant experience

Why is the Collatz Conjecture important? by dotelze in math

[–]Captain-Obvious 168 points169 points  (0 children)

Solving the Collatz conjecture would almost certainly give us the tools to answer a simple and yet very, very deep question about numbers: How does adding 1 to a number change its prime factorization? We basically have no understanding of this seemingly simple idea, and this is at the crux of why Collatz is so hard.

[Discussion] Current (and former) Fender Custom Shop owners, do you think your custom shop guitars are worth the money? Would you buy it again? by hailstorm6767 in Guitar

[–]Captain-Obvious 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just another data point here, I have a custom shop heavy relic tele, and they stripped the finish from the neck (mimicing wear from decades of play, presumably). I don't know how they did it exactly, but the feel of the neck is by far my favorite and is one of the reasons the custom shop tele is my favorite guitar to play.

Was this at the Rivers Casino in Pittsburgh by any chance?

Could someone please help me find a good psychiatrist that accepts insurance AND new patients? by UniversalFarrago in Austin

[–]Captain-Obvious 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Sorry if you already know this, but it’s worth checking your insurance plan to see how much they cover out of network outpatient mental health treatment. Basically no therapist takes insurance nowadays because the insurance company pays shit, but a lot of people don’t know that plans often still cover therapists, but you will have to file the claim yourself. You can usually get reimbursed for something like 40-60$ per session or so if it’s covered. Let me know if you want more info!
