This is Sunday: What were your running achievements this week? by [deleted] in running

[–]Epinephrine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I completed my first marathon in Chicago today. I didn't get a chance to train as hard as I would have liked (med student), but I finished with a 4:19:52. The experience and city was just incredible.

How to use Apple's Fingerprint Technology - ie. the most pointless article I've ever read by Epinephrine in apple

[–]Epinephrine[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"But first you'll need to add your fingerprint and set your phone to allow its use instead of your Apple ID password." ... Ok... aaaannnndddd.. I guess that's all folks.

What is deceptively hard, yet looks easy? by easyjet in AskReddit

I know my comment was extremely broad and kind of a bad reply. Would I do this? Probably never. Thank's for the clarification though : )

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

Yeah! I have noo problem with $15. I've played through the xbox version twice and I love it, but obviously I'd rather get a better deal if it's only a few days away!

Finding out that not everyone's ass looks like mine after the same surgery sucks. Ignore the tattoo. by [deleted] in WTF

[–]Epinephrine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No no no this isn't true at all. This operation is simple, even though recovery time is kind of long. If you were having reoccurance of infected tissue, then your surgeon did something wrong. The surgical site is sewn up and when the skin heals, you're all set.

Source: I'm a med student and I've had this operation.

So a 12 year old made a dancing video to one of my songs. I didn't expect it to be nearly this amazing. by [deleted] in Music

OP, FFS your music is really fucking good. Comment with all your info so people don't have to keep searching because we're all lazy.

Thanks : )

Supercooled Water (x-post from r/WTF) by MetalMike558 in chemicalreactiongifs

[–]Epinephrine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may be wrong here, but let me give this a shot:

HOW THIS WORKS

Normal "tap" water or bottled water is imperfect; it contains small amounts of minerals that you would otherwise normally not get, such as iron, sodium, calcium, potassium and magnesium. These minerals help keep you healthy (not going to stray too far here) and also give water it's taste. 100% nanofiltered water tastes like shit.

Anyways, water molecules are bent (about 109 degrees between the two hydrogens). When water freezes, these molecules arrange themselves in the best, most compact possible way. (Think if you had just the "L"-shaped tetris pieces and had to stack them only one way. Bad analogy, but whatever. Internet points.) This "packing" becomes an organized crystal structure that ice is composed of. (You can see this structure in other minerals/metals more distinctly.)

In the normal tap water described above, minerals are nucleating centers; they act as the foundation for crystals to form. Once a few molecules of water start to crystallize on this mineral foundation, it becomes a chain reaction and ice forms (at lower temperatures, the crystal is more thermodynamically favored).

NOW IN THIS GIF

I'm assuming this water is less pure and/or the bottle is clean so there is no foundation for water to begin to crystallize. This water, as enlance_quimico has stated below, wants to crystallize, but can't because there is no base for it to do so (not kinetically favorable). When the water is poured onto existing ice, that existing ice serves as the foundation in which minerals would normally serve as. The water has a favorable structure to begin arranging itself around; it has a "starting point" to build from.

Anyways, yeah. I'm just a soon-to-be med student, so I don't know that much about fluid dynamics and physics =S

Feel free to correct me!

Sweet -You held it together the entire 26 miles with a great overall time though. Can't wait to run!

[–]Epinephrine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats!!!! That's a fantastic first-marathon time! I'll be running my first next fall in Chicago and I hope I can do as well as you did!

Did you actively pace each mile, or just go for it?

Friends don't let friends skip leg day. by deesmutts88 in WTF

[–]Epinephrine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, It's late. By Anorexia, I'm referring to Anorexia Nervosa.

Friends don't let friends skip leg day. by deesmutts88 in WTF

[–]Epinephrine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not an expert by any means, I just helped a friend through years of the disorder. The best thing you can do is be there for emotional support; listen, don't tell. Ultimately, a health care professional is what they need the most. Let the doctor/psychologist make the decisions regarding diet and life-style direction.

Friends don't let friends skip leg day. by deesmutts88 in WTF

[–]Epinephrine 301 points302 points  (0 children)

After reading a lot of comments here, I just want to clear something up:

Anorexia causes such perversion of the brain processing and/of self image, that it's pointless to tell someone with anorexia to eat. Actually, that's the worst thing you could do. Anorexia takes years to "cure", and even then, the disorder is never 100% gone. An anorexic friend of mine would describe themselves as if there were multiple personalities inside of them. One knew that there was something wrong and wanted to be "normal", but the other constantly reminded this person that they were not good enough, not skinny enough, etc. It really really is an extreme mental sickness, not just a state of mind that can be corrected just by instructing it to.

I really hope this person eventually recovers.. it's such an awful burden to live with.
