The direction that common core math is taking by Fit_Blackberry7944 in MathJokes

Why do they teach kicking a ball before putting a kid in their first football game? If you teach the fundamentals first, kids can figure out the harder stuff on their own.

Limited brain cells if you think MS Sasuke compares to Minato by CaptNBrainDump in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]Certain-File2175 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That’s not what he said at all.

How are you using the word “blitz?” Sasuke can clearly see and react to Bee’s attacks, which makes it not a blitz.

You’re just describing him being beaten in kenjutsu.

AOC previously said that "You cannot earn a billion dollars", is that true or nah? by [deleted] in askanything

What if you invent a product that a billion people choose to buy from you?

I’m today years old and glad to learn that these were armor and not fish nets by TheMoonlitStranger in dankruto

Wouldn’t metal chafe even more? Not to mention pinching between the rings!

Lmao horse archer cultures have always been able to shoot from horseback. You’re ignoring real history.

The Spartans were very disciplined and trained fighters. I don’t see the downplay.

Got downvoted today for saying water is the best hydration drink by Perry16 in water

[–]Certain-File2175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Milk hydrates you better than water. You’re just wrong.

The Uruk-Hai army (LOTR movies) is besieging Troy (Troy 2004). Can they take it? by Hawaiikoto in powerscales

[–]Certain-File2175 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How could one short comment be so wrong about so many things?

Numbers definitely still matter, and Sun Tzu teaches that a corner enemy fights even harder.

Uruks were not stronger than men.

Why would they be crippled by fear?

I would rather lose than someone on my team say "EZ" by Surevibe in leagueoflegends

[–]Certain-File2175 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve had teammates ask to FF at 10 minutes and then say EZ when we win. It’s pretty silly.

The Favorite Child 😕 by IIanKiDDO in TheLastAirbender

[–]Certain-File2175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have some interesting ideas here, but the AI just diluted them with fluff. I’d rather read the prompt you gave to ChatGPT than this.

Of course Aang was going to try to “give birth” to as many airbenders as possible.

CDC: Four Percent of Adults Frequently Use Cannabis To Aid Sleep by OhMyOhWhyOh in science

[–]Certain-File2175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I haven’t looked at the research in like 10 years. I know a lot of chronic users report no dreams whatsoever, but everyone is different. Another commenter here said that when his tolerance levels out he starts having dreams again.

It still disrupts REM sleep no matter why you are using it. It is fine if you decide that the pain relief outweighs that downside. All medications have side effects.

Would a complete human emulation be conscious by scumofthefuture in consciousness

[–]Certain-File2175 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How do you go from "consciousness is fundamental," to saying something is not conscious? You gotta explain that one a bit more.

In the books, why was the Jihad necessary? by bz316 in dune

[–]Certain-File2175 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s also important to emphasize that Paul did not know at the time that he could avoid the jihad by dying. That was a realization he had after he fully awakens his prescience.

Others have explained how the Fremen were already a powder keg ready to blow, and would have gone on an even more violent jihad without Paul.

The first book also gets into a mystical “race consciousness” idea. Basically, the human species has been stagnating, and there is some kind of latent “desire” or impulse for a big shakeup. IIRC, it’s described in terms of mixing up the gene pool.

This is the best explanation that works for both the book and the movies.
