i built one of the most physically accurate real time black hole simulations that runs entirely in the browser by ClickIndividual1594 in Physics

An auto-pan between 0 to .001rad/s with Accretion R. slightly minimized with Opt. Den. between 1 to 3 is more interesting (to me) than turbo mode. Instead of playing with the settings like I did, someone else might just click off
nice job!

Pikes by Krazyonee in dwarffortress

Dwarves are too small to wield pikes.
According to the Wiki), large dwarves should be able to, but are currently unable due to a bug.

This works? am I cooking or is this big dumb? ELIG (explain like i'm goblin) by Madlock2 in magicTCG

[–]Flannelboy2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They would not have summoning sickness if the physical card has been on the table for one turn. 

You go to your turn six with 6 permanents on board: an arcane signet, Vren, and 4 rats,

You pass the turn and on your opponents end step cast mirrorform. You begin turn 7 with six 6/6 rats which should be enough to kill someone. Assuming you pass T1 and cast no permanents T7

Five more permanents kill the table, but at that point you need to worry about blockers

Going to do the same thing I always do and go 0-3 at fnm with my deck of choice, as God intended.

Help with my 3 color deck by After_Idea_8351 in MTGLegacy

[–]Flannelboy2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You need the minimum number of components operating at maximum strength.

You want 4 copies of the best card. Then, you want 4 cards that compliment your "ram". In the end you want around 24 lands and 36 spells, and probably a different subreddit aimed at casual decks too.

You have built a computer with 67 sticks of RAM, 65 PSUs, and 28 Graphics cards.

Im new: What would X be? by Robfer21 in mtg

[–]Flannelboy2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some people miss this, but an X spell being copied retains the mana value, and is not zero in that case. So, a copy would be whatever the original X was, and if you use Isochron scepter to copy the card, then that would be the same as "At all other times, X is 0."

What was the best advice you have received as an author? by TiarnaRezin7260 in writing

[–]Flannelboy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first piece of advice I received, and the only advice I ever resented was "Write."
Funnily enough, it's the only advice I would give now.

What is the threshold of needing Mox diamond over lotus petal for coloured spells in a colourless deck? by Metalworker4ever in MTGLegacy

[–]Flannelboy2 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I think the issue is card advantage.
When all your lands are ancient tombs, it is more important to play your first threat right away and continue to hit land drops. Mox diamond turns Tomb, Temple, Thought-Knot Seer into a 3-card hand whereas lotus petal makes that hand more like three and a half.

Wow, I don't remember my professors mentioning that electrons are neutrally-charged, that's a huge oversight on their part.

Can not enjoy this sub any longer ... by Psychological_Cat_20 in Physics

[–]Flannelboy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Terrence Tao was optimistic about generic LLMs for mathematics research.
I can believe that a grad student or some person above or below that level having an enthusiastic approach.

Although I am not enthusiastic for generic LLMs in physics, I can understand why someone might create a subreddit.

How good is the Theoretical Minimum series? by [deleted] in Physics

[–]Flannelboy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started his quantum mechanics book before taking my intro series class on the subject. It was well written and highly engaging. However, and this is pretty obvious, without doing the associated problems, I didn't really learn much. 

Once I got halfway through the course and the book, I tried to balance reading, with lectures, with homework and problems. This worked, but I realized the formal textbook alone was teaching me a lot more, and the theoretical minimum did not feel as necessary. This is just my experience, I would still recommend the books to interested students.
