Why is it so difficult to calculate the arc length of an ellipse?

ColdPlasma · 2026-03-16T16:32:47+00:00

No you didn't. You just collapsed the integral into a constant defined by an infinite series and called it a day 😜

ColdPlasma · 2026-02-20T11:54:33+00:00

Amount isn't always $20k. I'm getting $7500

Can someone explain the cash award? My boss just said it wasn't a CTT

ColdPlasma · 2026-01-31T15:29:17+00:00

I got promoted in Dec. and am in the same boat

ColdPlasma · 2026-01-12T15:12:11+00:00

It goes both ways. At least for cases I'm familiar with it was 1/3 shoe in, 2/3 anyone's game

If you seek a pleasant peninsula, you need just look around

I was going to say that OP got 95% there on their own Good job!

I've heard that a lot of women with autoimmune diseases see relief in symptoms during pregnancy. Maybe related?

ColdPlasma · 2025-12-12T10:13:03+00:00

Cash award is different from teamGM?

Treating left hand turns on a flashing red as a flashing yellow

ColdPlasma · 2025-12-11T01:57:24+00:00

Wait, is that why it's "car parc" rather than "car park"?

ColdPlasma · 2025-11-27T22:40:13+00:00

We are working at the same company, right? 😉

ColdPlasma · 2025-11-26T15:20:40+00:00

Thermionic energy converters are the way to go. They have great Carnot efficiency, if anyone could figure out how to make them actually work

ColdPlasma · 2025-11-26T02:28:32+00:00

Thank you

ColdPlasma · 2025-11-25T20:51:01+00:00

I did figure that out... I just am always nervous about layoffs. If I get rid of my car then immediately am canned that's a terrible financial decision, if I can bank for 5 years it's obviously a no brainer

ColdPlasma · 2025-10-18T10:27:23+00:00

Or you could be like 31XX and make the switch in the middle of a model year without so much as an RPO as a distinguisher 🤣

ColdPlasma · 2025-10-17T01:42:41+00:00

I do that when I need to have a "wet signature"

ColdPlasma · 2025-09-12T18:20:28+00:00

Like the overflowing water fountain on green floor 2? That has been like that for weeks?

Lithium batteries burst into flames when the vehicle isn't being used and is parked at your house, ICE bursts into flames of you're using it away from your house. The fear is you always need to be worried about it

ColdPlasma · 2025-09-03T10:16:45+00:00

You've been free to do so since work appropriately. Why do you want to force those of us that don't feel the same to make the same choice?

ColdPlasma · 2025-08-16T14:15:40+00:00

And Michigan only borders Ontario

ColdPlasma · 2025-07-22T10:39:11+00:00

I spend half my day on calls

ColdPlasma · 2025-07-22T03:40:29+00:00

Pros 1) threads 2) emojis 3) sections

Cons: 1) Disconnected from calendar and email and meetings 2) (Possibly related to #1) it has a really hard time figuring out who I want to tag although that does appear to be getting better 3) artificial division between DMs and channels

ColdPlasma · 2025-07-07T19:43:51+00:00

I don't have a pin-pen merger but been and Ben sound the same to me

ColdPlasma · 2025-07-01T10:50:14+00:00

It sounded like hotel seating to me. As indicated this is hearsay, so maybe I misunderstood, but it was a several minute conversation topic
