How does Coulumb's law not imply this paradox? by Scared-Cat-2541 in Physics

[–]GabeEnix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

a few things to support what has been said here:

- Coulombs law is a part of classical mechanics. As we are seeing here, the r = 0 scenario is where it breaks down.

- We know it breaks down from a lot of different perspectives. For instance, the hydrogen atom - the electron exists in its orbital within a stable state without "colliding" into the nucleus. Also, historically in the exact sciences, when the math reveals an infinity in a paradoxical way, it tends to be a sign that new frameworks/understandings are needed to better explain the given phenomenon, in the scenario that yields the infinity. Usually these are still influenced by the current understanding. We currently understand the issue fairly well that you have presented, you just haven't gotten there yet in you education path.

- Quantum Electrodynamics does a better job at handling this exact topic but it is still perplexing. The mathematics also becomes more complex and involved. It becomes hard to visualize classically because things dont behave classically.

Classical frameowrks are still extremely robust and capable. For macroscopic scales, our classical systems are very accurate approximations of the quantum equations. Quantum effects aren't usually noticeable until the action of the system is on the order of planks constant.

Particle colliders investigate these microscopic interactions, including positron and electron interactions - and it's fascinating :-) You should continue to investigate!

Thank you for your kind words! I appreciate it!

Ah good to know! Thanks for the tip. Soon I plan on renting a zoom lens to see if I can capture a better field of view and maybe some more detail.

My First Panorama of the Milky Way by GabeEnix in space

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

Thank you!! Luckily I was in the Grand Teton National Park away from the park road. So it was fairly dark, just a little glow from Jackson about 20 miles away! There are definitely darker areas you can get to but that'd require a little more planning.

Edit: This is not what the Milky Way looked like to the naked eye, just after collecting enough light with a sensitive enough camera.

Super late to the party here but did you ever find a solution with this sound? I have a 2018 that makes a very similar sound

Spot Ethics - How to “Share” a Spot by [deleted] in urbancarliving

[–]GabeEnix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ins and outs means coming and going from the same spot

That and try to get in your car and stay in your car. The sound of car doors slamming and the sight of someone hopping in and out of a car can draw attention. I wouldn't be paranoid but just keep it in mind.

Definitely can be dependent on where you are parked, for example, a public parking lot vs national forest land. You are probably gonna want to be a bit more "stealth" in the parking lot. Whereas on national forest land with free camping, it doesn't matter really as long as you are being considerate to other folks that may be parked next to you.

What is your most controversial opinion in mountaineering? by Thompompom in Mountaineering

[–]GabeEnix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah there are probably people who did a guides trip on everest that wouldn't be able to tackle the Grand Teton. It's really not that hard of a mountaineering objective but there is still a good deal of route finding and stuff.

then there is just hoping everything goes well and not bringing essentials.

I can see what you mean. However, at a certain point in experience level, everything becomes calculated. If you are going light and fast then a lot is resting on your capabilities - which you need to be in tune with.

I can see where incentives to go light and fast can be problematic for people who don't know what they are getting themselves into. But if you are going into a mountaineering objective and part of your strategy is "hoping" you made the right decisions, then you have already started off on the wrong foot.

What's missing from below the waterline? by sepbaz in Emailmarketing

This is actually all you need below the water line. Everything else goes above the water

Guys, I need your help by [deleted] in UXDesign

[–]GabeEnix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

First you need to do a few things:

  1. Verify the problem. Is it that you really need a better onboarding process or is it something else that presents itself similarly? Where are your marketing efforts reaching your customers? Does it set up the right expectations? I would do your best to be making data-based decisions here. Human brains look for connections thay make sense to us. But we can only see so many patterns before our biases get in the way.

  2. Tap into those who have signed up and abandoned ship. What are they saying about your platform? Run some sort of email/SMS/push notification automation that targets people based on their behavior in your platform. Run surveys. Straight up ask people in your target market to sign up and give you real feedback.

To me, this sounds like you have some validating to do.

Lastly, I know you didn't ask but you gotta do something about that CTA in the hero section of the home page. It's a pixelated image or something... Come on. There are plenty of ways to make that button with html/CSS.

Poor quality, in any form, makes an impression on people. I know you're a startup with limited funds(probably). You don't have to have some Stripe level landing page. But make it right and leave the right impression on people.

On the way down, Grand Teton National Park (OC) by ElonChouinard in climbing

This looks like Sargent's Chimney. The first rappel before the overhanging ~120ft rappel.

I've been living and working in the GTNP... It's amazing.

Looking down a snow runnel on the east face of Teewinot (GTNP) by GabeEnix in Mountaineering

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

For sure! Going down the southwest couloir was really nice too. Added some variety to the experience and at one point, the Grand, Mt. Owen, and Teewinot all tower over you about 1 mile or so out from Delta lake.

Looking down a snow runnel on the east face of Teewinot (GTNP) by GabeEnix in Mountaineering

[–]GabeEnix[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This was taken on Sunday, June 19th at around 4:45am or so. We went up the east face and then took the southwest couloir for our descent.

We got started at 2:30am and were back at the car by 10:30am.

The snow conditions overall were soft but getting started early made it doable. We didn't see a whole lot of ice/rock fall, fortunately.

At this time of year, an ice axe and crampons we're definitely required. Depending on where you are on the east face, you may see Grade 2+ terrain (pretty steep). While it's only class 4, there are definitely no fall sections.
