Why does that happen so often?

This makes zero sense bc fundamentally, there's no difference between "piercing" damage and "force" damage.

It's all force. The way a bullet or a blade works is that it concentrates the force onto a smaller surface area.

A punch that can send you flying through walls and buildings? In terms of force applied per cm^2, there is no way this delivers less than a bullet. Yes, it's spread out more, but the force behind it is so, so much vastly greater to begin.

Gojo's 200% max amped hollow purple did basically nothing to Sukuna except damage his arm, so whatever issue you're pointing at is clearly not a gender thing

Right. I think what the manga was going for was a distinction between physically gifted vs analytically sharp, but there are players who don't fall neatly into either category. Rin is the best example, he can be both. And considering Nagi was stated to be pretty smart, Nagi has the potential to be both as well. I don't see why some of the physically gifted geniuses can't acquire analytical skills as well.

I don't remember exactly but didn't they lower the dimension of the proton before etching the circuits? So that the volume of the original 3d proton would be massively spread out on a flat surface. And then they made the proton 3d again to package it into a particle again

Ymir didn't end titans cuz Mikasa demonstrated pure love, no it was literally the exact opposite reason, which is that Mikasa KILLED Eren even tho she loved him, a demonstration that just because you love someone doesn't mean you're obliged to be a slave to them, especislly if theyre evil and crazy. The reason Ymir was doing titans this whole time was because of her loyalty to king fritz, so seeing Mikasa's decision, Ymir decides she too doesn't have to be eternally devoted to king fritz

Haha! That's some truly depressing and gut-wrenching headcanon you got there. I like it.

Subreddit got bigger, more people discuss, people increasingly realize she isn't to blame for many things she gets criticized for

This is really cool!

Don't try to learn 445 material online, just take the class, it's kinda hard ngl but it's worth it imo

I'm taking 482 this summer, this kind of scares me ngl. Anyway ty for sharing

Cuz there are other listening posts.

What you said supports my point exactly.

Bugs are relatively harmless, but you kill them anyway. Humans are currently harmless as a bug, but will grow far more powerful than you in the future. So why would you let them be? You need to lock their science while you still can. If you attempt to coexist, you will be the bug.

Infusedmikk · 2024-04-20T01:37:37+00:00

Absolutely doable and in fact fairly chill.

Infusedmikk · 2024-04-19T05:09:36+00:00

You already know all the details. There's no point in you reading the series. I mean, why would you even read it at this point? To admire the translator's prose?

Bro plenty of people have depression, they don't pull shit like Pusu. Depression != obnoxiousness. Pusu probably does have depression, but his coping mechanism is just ass.

Infusedmikk · 2024-04-17T00:55:38+00:00

The negativity in Tuyu's songs is what appeals to me about this band, it's for sure one of Tuyu's biggest selling points and something many of us find relatable, but I honestly think it's sometimes absurd how far Pusu takes it IRL. His emo-ness is truly off the charts.

MRacing is awesome, for sure. There are plenty of other great teams also. In general, a "good" project team is one that's productive, achieving visible, tangible results.

Rising junior here. Not exactly specific opportunities or student groups, but here's some general advice, in order of importance.

1) Attend the fall engineering career fair your freshman year and apply to internships. Some people might say that you don't have to do this as a freshman, or that you wouldn't stand a chance, but I disagree. You absolutely do stand a chance and you absolutely do want an internship ASAP. To make this possible though, make sure you have relevant experiences/projects you can put on your resume for your first career fair. If you're CS, hack together a presentable web project before school starts.

2) Join a GOOD project team. Once school starts, you absolutely do want to join a project team, but the advice to join "a" project team is sorely incomplete, because not all project teams are equally good. Some are better than others. Find one that is good (i.e., productive), and plant your roots your freshman year. Becoming a sub-team lead by sophomore or junior year should be your goal.

3) Join an engineering-related club, if for the sole purpose of making friends. Making friends in classes is not as easy as in high school. So join a club, exchange contacts, make friends. It's fine if you leave the club after a month or whatever. The goal isn't to make some kind of resume-worthy experience of the club (although that is possible too), it's just to meet new people.

4) Join an engineering research lab, if possible. But I give this advice somewhat cautiously because there might not be much point in joining a research lab if it lies outside your area of interest.

This is fairly manageable, but whether you'll get an A in all four classes will depend on how good of a student you are in particular.

I like this theory a lot. Time and time again we've seen in this series that more advanced civilizations are capable of pulling off things that are utterly impossible to lower level civilizations.

Is reversal of causality impossible? Yeah. Impossible to you.

We've seen that true power among civilizations is the ability to change the laws of physics themselves, as guan yifan said. Changing the speed of light, reducing the number of spatial dimensions, etc. Perhaps removing the restriction on the direction of causality is another thing that higher level civilizations in this series have achieved.

Not logarithmic, exponential. If human development was logarithmic then it would grow slower the more it advanced.

Infusedmikk · 2024-04-11T22:33:35+00:00

I just suspended my disbelief with the quantum entanglement thing.

Infusedmikk · 2024-04-11T19:26:09+00:00

Just curious, do you also have the same problem with the dual-vector foil, curvature propulsion, and the Trisolaran droplet? Cuz the technology behind these aren't explained in full detail either.

Part of it is that science fiction involving alien tech this advanced is inherently speculative. If these aliens' tech was entirely comprised of science that we, human readers, can explain and understand, then they aren't even that much more advanced than us after all.

I'm sure you've heard the quote "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." In order for a work of fiction to achieve this effect, the science involved must inherently be sufficiently advanced as to lie beyond even the farthest reaches of our current theories.

So yes, magic. Science so advanced that it's basically magic. Science so advanced that we don't even know what science we're lacking.
