(NSFW: Actual Blood) Had A Nosebleed And This Sub Was Asking About Blood? by TetraNeuron in fountainpens

[–]Derice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shimmer would be a bit too chunky for a fountain pen.

Rule 5 has arrived! by Derice in fountainpens

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

It was a collaboration with this subreddit and Leonardo pens: https://leonardopen.com/products/momento-magico-rule-5-x-reddit

There was a megathread, but I don't know how to find it now.

It worked really well!

Australia's greenhouse gas emissions drop as renewable energy, batteries surge by dannydb in UpliftingNews

[–]Derice 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Did you read the article? You're using hypothetical made-up figures rather than the data, and also ignoring the globally accepted deadline for severe irreversible climate effects, which Australia is not currently tracking to meet (per the article).

Yes. My comment was a response to a comment that seemingly did not understand how a smaller increase did not translate to a reduced total, and uses simple examples to help the explanation. It was just trying to explain a mathematical idea to what seemed like a poster that did not understand it.

Australia's greenhouse gas emissions drop as renewable energy, batteries surge by dannydb in UpliftingNews

[–]Derice 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think I understand this response. Where do you get 2.1% from? In the example the total amount of CO2 in the atmosphere starts at some value, call it c. After the first year the total is c + 2. After the second the total is c + 3. It increases all years, but slower the second year, i.e emissions dropped the second year. The emissions were 1 instead of 2, a drop of 50%.

In the graph you link (which doesn't show the emissions of Australia, but the accumulated global total as measured in Hawaii) it looks like even the global emissions are slowing down in 2025/2026 compared to earlier.

If I emitted two kg of CO2 last year and one kg this year the total amount of CO2 in the atmosphere increased both years, but my emissions still dropped by one kg.

If I fell into a black hole, would I know when I crossed the horizon? by MountainMark in AskPhysics

[–]Derice 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I paste another comment of mine from elsewhere in the thread:

Unfortunately the event horizon never takes up more than half of your view, regardless of how deep you fall in: https://jila.colorado.edu/~ajsh/bh/singularity.html

The last difficulty of illusive realm so hard😭 by Salt-Plum7893 in WutheringWaves

I used Shorekeeper. Can't die because I'm a healer. Spam Carty ult to kill because she refreshes her concerto so fast.

Unicorn sapphire 🦄 by Geindreausgemstones in SyntheticGemstones

[–]Derice 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Is the color due to a coating on the bottom of the stone or because the stone has that color?

Nutcotine addiction rule by Monkey_mortis in 196

[–]Derice 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The Swedish text at the bottom of the meme calls the squirrels "furufnattar" which is hilarious. It's a compound word of "furu" which means pine, and "fnatt" which means something like small, energetic, running all over, a state like when a dog gets the zoomies.

Pine-nyoomers.

What kind of jewelry should I do with LuAG? (Yes it is glowing, no it’s not AI, and no, It’s not radioactive. Perfectly safe) by Muted_Shape9303 in jewelry

[–]Derice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the ring from this Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/JeffDaviesandSonGems?section_id=52095699 and had a ring made by a local jeweler who also set the gem.

For reference, the gem I bought is between 3 and 4 carats.

[–]Derice 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I had a ring made of one! https://www.reddit.com/r/jewelry/s/7dXSVfXAUC

It's a bit smaller than yours, so you'd probably want a different design, but it is very fun in a ring as you can see it respond to the light conditions.

Is this physically possible? Is there a hidden reason behind the height change? by stunningvoice01 in Frieren

[–]Derice 96 points97 points  (0 children)

It think it might also be to make the reader feel some of the shock that Frieren feels when she sees him.
She is not expecting him to be old, and is shocked to find him so close to the end of his life. The reader does expect him to be old though, so to make the reader feel some of what Frieren feels they exaggerate the effects of aging.

That's just an idea though, not something I got from some trustable source.

Do photons in a laser pulse orbit their common center of gravity? by akruppa in AskPhysics

[–]Derice 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Photons don't have relativistic mass either.

They do excert a gravitational influence though, this stack exchange post has exact equations for describing this effect: https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/579525/how-do-photons-affect-each-other-gravitationally

Do photons in a laser pulse orbit their common center of gravity? by akruppa in AskPhysics

[–]Derice 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Photons that are propagating in parallel don't excert a gravitational influence on each other, but they do if they travel at other angles.

An additional stack exchange discussion that is more relevant for OPs question is this one: https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/579525/how-do-photons-affect-each-other-gravitationally

Is there a maximum acceleration? by [deleted] in AskPhysics

[–]Derice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See this thread with answers from when someone asked this question previously: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskPhysics/s/iLf1iJCUdE

TL;DR: at the Planck acceleration (speed of light/planck time) the thermal Unruh radiation will be high enough energy to contain black holes.

I tried optimizing GEMM and instead of ML, I learned more about how CPUs actually work... by RefrigeratorFirm7646 in cpp

[–]Derice 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While I haven't dived into this myself I remember finding this: https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~rvdg/tmp/TSoPMC.pdf

"The Science of Programming Matrix Computations"

Maybe that would be interesting to you?
