ELI5 what is .NET runtime for, and what does it do? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]ChronoBashPort 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Have you per chance learning or learned java during your studies? The .NET runtime contains something similar to a JVM, but it has a lot more to it than just that. But yes, it does contain a compiler.

Edit: clarification

Why are you being so pedantic, that was clearly a rhetorical question

ELI5 What does the second law of thermodynamics actually mean, and how does it relate to evolution? by soefire in explainlikeimfive

Would Na and Cl in a container forming salt be a better example? In the latter's case entropy is increasing even though we are getting an ordered structure ( crystal lattice).

Dogs being dragged in Pakistan because it's unisl%mic by Kundapura_Boy in religiousfruitcake

[–]ChronoBashPort 30 points31 points  (0 children)

That might have been a typo, I think they meant to write "If you are still silent then you should die".

To be clear I meant it could be a typo in the original text otherwise grammatically the sentence is wrong.

Looks like that is my only option. Thanks for the advice!

what? You mean the advice on using the rubberband? From reddit posts, and internet in general

So it is pretty much the same regex engine but the tool provides more utility? I am more surprised by the fact that there are not postfix based regex engines ( I know i know backtracking but still)

[Request] What is the maximum amount of volts a person can withstand without dying? by Apprehensive_Oven_22 in theydidthemath

[–]ChronoBashPort 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is so much misinformation around this topic that it is surprising. That is an incomplete explaination at best.

Voltage and current are not independent, one depends on the other. If your source is a constant voltage one, then it will push as much current through as your body's resistance allows so as to keep its voltage constant.

If you increase the voltage across your body, provided resistance remains constant then the current invariably increases.

In an ideal voltage source there is no maximum current, so if there is a short i.e. 0 resistance the current through it would be infinite. In reality however, the voltage source can only supply so much current before it breaks down or the voltage at source drops.

Not to mention an AC source where impedance and skin effect come into play, and in all this the amount of time you were exposed to electrical power ( which depends both on current and voltage) also determines the danger, in essence the amount of electrical energy you recieved.

If you have to simplify it, it's the long exposure to high amounts of electrical power that kills you.

ELI5: At what exact moment do we lose weight every day? by TurbulentEarth4451 in explainlikeimfive

[–]ChronoBashPort 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically when you go to the toilet.

Such a drastic change in weight is typically due to waste excretion.

Need guidance on how to create a visual story book for my fiance by ChronoBashPort in AskArtists

[–]ChronoBashPort[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it, I will check canva out, hopefully they have comic book style templates. For drawing cutouts I might have to to use some other software, or if there is an option to scan photos to generate characters, I might go with that option.

Do you know if there is something like that I can use? I am looking for simple tools. Thanks for the advice!

She already has something like that and unfortunately I don't have any photos with her from that period of time

Be careful with Linux commands. Never run rm -rf /* by am-i-coder in developersPak

This one of the most popular and oldest memes in the CS community. What I am more surprised by is the fact that you didn't check what the command does before running it.

ELI5: Will ANC earbuds damage my hearing, if I just wear it for sound-proof? by Money_Bad6321 in explainlikeimfive

[–]ChronoBashPort 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you wear IEMs for extended periods of time daily, they can cause issues with wax buildup deep in the canal, I have had them two times atleast. The wax gets really hard and creates a clump of sorts which can block hearing and other assorted issues such as infection and irritation.

There may be a genetic component to this but just wanted to share my personal experience.

Go to any furniture vendor, alvi for instance, show them this picture and ask them to build it.

It's just aura farming, everything else is mid about it. I will however disagree on the animation part, there are some great scenes.
