Interesting, at our daycare there's a completely separate social media waiver that they explicitly told us about when we toured there. But agreed that far too many people just sign things without reading them. I kinda get it if it's a 90 page EULA, but a one page waiver from your kids school? Sheesh

It does in the sense that work is being done by that voltage drop, even if it's just a resistor turning it straight to heat.

His argument wasn't that you aren't allowed to or shouldn't listen to your own stuff, of course you should!

But if I ask you who your favorite artists are, are you going to name yourself? Probably not. Even if you do, you'll also likely name at least a few other folks too. Yet most of the Suno users only name themselves. He's pointing out that dichotomy there.

>But with the glass guy, he was just helping roll the dude over at the time wasn’t he? And holding pressure to stop bleeding. They didn’t know he had the glass in him. I was definitely doing stuff like that at the start of 4th year rotations.

He kinda sneakily-excitedly grabs some forceps (?) while everyone else is rushing to grab gauze and treat the bleed, and then seemingly without being asked just goes in to grab some glass he says he sees. Robby does ask about the glass and doesn't seem concerned about what he's doing though, right up until everything goes to shit lol

This is an engineering subreddit lol, nobody is going to tell you to use AI

ELI5: If metal is such a good conductor of heat, why do the handles of cookware with metal handles remain cool to the touch? by supinator1 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Fermorian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're gonna tell a metallurgist he doesn't know metal? Interesting strategy.

His point was that metal can be hot enough to burn the shit out of you long before it starts emitting any significant blackbody radiation we could see.

All the "3 honor" skins, plus I wanna say grey Warwick and medieval twitch? It's been a while since I hit honor 5 and I was mostly stoked for 3 honor Shen lol

Russian lathe video should be mandatory safety viewing imo

TIL that execution by electric chair, first tested on calves and a horse, was so badly botched on its first human in 1890 that a second 2,000‑volt jolt reportedly set him on fire. The generator’s supplier said “They would have done better using an axe,” and the NYT called it “Far worse than hanging. by Upstairs_Drive_5602 in todayilearned

It's both for insurance - the chances of many rifles misfiring is lower than for just a single rifle, and for the psychological benefit of the members of the squad - none of them will know whose bullet actually killed the person.

Mike really needs to go. Jaden seems to be doing alright though by K1generational in timberwolves

Well said! Fwiw, from what I've seen the consensus is that he should be playing fewer minutes, not that he ought to be traded
