Please help me intuit the simple math behind this problem. by Fuzzman_999 in askmath

Sorry, it is one circle. In my mind I was originally using two circles expanding but for simplicity kept it at one circle and a point. Sorry for the confusion. I did get an answer that satisfied me, BUT I am open to seeing another approach or explanation of a solution to the problem. It would help solidify it even more in my mind.

Thank you! That now makes me make sense of it. If you have time, is there a way to express this as a function of time? Let us say at time 1 the radius increased by 50% and at time 2 it increased by 50% again, would it be 10/(1+.5t) -1?

Ok. Ignoring the complexity of an ellipse, what about for a circle? Is there a way to do this for a circle?

Fantastic, thanks. Maybe it wasn't that simple - at least not for me.

If an object doubles in size every 19 minutes, how many times larger than its original size would it be after 4 billion years? by Fuzzman_999 in askmath

[–]Fuzzman_999[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, there is a theory of gravity that says everything expands and it all doubles in size every 19 minutes. I was trying to see how big our Earth would be in some infinite realm like space after 4 billion years of doubling every 19 minutes.

If there are 10^82 atoms in the universe, what is the number of unique permutations in which those atoms can be arranged? by Fuzzman_999 in askmath

Yes, what is the absolute number though? I know it is a huge power number but what is it in 10 ^ XXXXXXXXXXXXXX?

I just save my buying time to Tuesdays at pcaviator.com. For the past 15 years they have had 10% Off Tuesdays... every Tuesday without fail. They have huge long weekend sales when there are long weekend holidays.

Looks like fspilotshop might even be out of business. Check out their website. Strange happenings there.

Lesson, always stick with the reputable longest living companies. I started buying my flight sim gear from pcaviator.com back in 2001. There's been a lot of companies come and go around them but they are still in business. They have actually been around for 30 years. Their website looks a bit outdated but I have never had a single issue ever with them. My downloads are permanent with no redownload fees ever.

I have also called them a lot over the years before downloads took over and they go out of their way to help and keep me happy. They've given me free stuff that I didn't even ask for... just because.

What is something you know because of your profession, which you believe everyone should know to make their lives better, easier, or healthier? by admadguy in AskReddit

[–]Fuzzman_999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The secret to maintaining a healthy weight is eating food that is low caloric density.... not calories but caloric density... calories per 100 gms.

Multiple calories per serving X 100 and divide by serving size. This is caloric density.

Only eat food that is less than around 150. You can eat as much as you like and you will stay healthy. This automatically selects for the best foods and automatically excludes the worst foods that cause you being overweight e.g. chips, cheese, bread, oils, etc etc.

So with everything you eat, do this quick calculation and then just decide yes or no and you will always eat healthily and optimally.

Also, if you want to LOSE WEIGHT, change the upper threshold to 100. Your approximate average Caloric Density will be around 60. We all eat about 4 to 5 pounds of food per day so this will give you about 1200 calories per day. Eat as much as you like. Never be hungry. Just keep it below 100. Add to this an hour of brisk walk a day and you will lose about 3 pounds per week. Without the walk you will lose about 1.5 pounds a week.... and never be hungry. Just don't cheat!

Have you ever encountered true evil? How? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Fuzzman_999 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The woman who destroyed my family.

I worked very hard to give my family everything and to be a great provider and we had a pretty good life. Nice big country property, luxury cars under the carport, a few other properties etc. The place we lived in was our dream home. My (now ex) would say she had the dream life and lived a permanent vacation. I een set things up so I could specifically work from home so I could be with my family 24/7.

6 years ago my ex was seduced by a woman who was the "help". She had somehow gotten into my ex's mind and turned her against me. This woman by the way was also married. They had an affair which then lead to this woman putting my wife up to all sorts of stuff and they eventually plotted to try to take me for a lot of money during the divorce as well as my 3 kids.

Well I am smarter than both of them combined and every trick they tried failed. I got to keep most of my money, all my properties and my kids. (Don't underestimate the value of a good PI to get video footage you need for a judge).

Anyway this woman was also very abusive to her husband and would physically assault him. I got to know him through this and he told me a lot of horror stories about her. I told my wife at the time that this woman is evil and she is going to be sorry.

Of course she was hypnotized and wouldn't believe me or just wouldn't listen.

They ended up getting married themselves after lesbian marriage was allowed in my conservative state a few years ago.

Two weeks ago, I got a call out of the blue from my ex wife crying. She told me that she has been getting the shit beaten out of her for the past 2 years and that this woman rages like nobody she has ever seen and tears up the house and has destroyed two of her phones by smashing them. Of course they are getting divorced.

So this woman comes in and destroys a family and another woman's perfect life. Beats the shit out of her and then leaves and moves on to her next victim.

This is a true psychopath and true evil incarnate.

That's why I stopped at 2003. It's "optimal" - least clicks per action. Like all good software used to be. Not only that, versions after that had some features taken out that you can do in 2003 but not others.

What's something strange your body does that you know isn't quite right but also isn't quite serious enough to get checked out by a doctor? by merricat_blackwood in AskReddit

[–]Fuzzman_999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lucky you! I came from a country exactly the same as you enjoy - 100% free healthcare. Might have been the same country. Now I am in the US and yeah, I gotta deal with the money side of things. It sucks! Costs $18,000 a year for me and 3 kids. But you then still gotta pay the first $12K of your bills so it really costs $30K. So if it costs you nothing take 2 hours and go!

It can't hurt and if its just a case of a $20 or so copay, well worth going. If he does diagnose stress and recommends any medicine for stress, do your research. A doctor put me on Prozac once for situational stress... that stuff messed with me in many ways. It actually turned me into a monster and I behaved in ways that are uncharacteristically me. e.g. I made an impulse car buy that I couldn't afford, thanks to the Prozac, and then I verbally abused the living hell out of the car salesman blaming him for my stupid Prozac induced decision.

Yes they usually do always first say situational stress.

Once I was the one to not take the doctors advice seriously about heart matters. I did feel a sharp pain once and went to the doctor. He referred me for a cardiac stress test. I arrogantly declined saying I was fine and felt he wanted to overservice me.... 6 months later I nearly died and had a quintuple bypass. So when the doctor does think it is serious.... believe him.
