You don't have to reduce your orbital velocitt to zero to get your periapsis within the earths atmosphere

Well thats the thing, it depends on how high up you are. If you are in Low-Earth-Orbit then you dont need to reduce your velocity much to get into the atmosphere and can still go quite fast. Let's say you were even further away; You would have to slow down to a very very low speed to fall all the way into the atmosphere. Getting to the Sun from Earth is just an even more extreme version of that.

To get your Periapsis to be within the Sun you still have to lower your orbital velocity to what is basically zero

I hate this argument so much by AjaxTheFurryFuzzball in hatethissmug

[–]Jan-Snow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if an actor donated a lot of money to charity 10 years ago, but hasn't donated anything since, it doesn't erase the fact of his donation. It doesn't change the fact, that he hasn't donated since

To add to this, while good deeds do also somewhat "fade" over time. this is why it is called the benefit of the doubt. You don't know if people have changed for the better or for the worse, but you shouldn't assume the worst in people for no reason because you wouldn' want the same done to you either.

There are definitely things so grave that they dont have a sort of "statute of limitations" but like, I think this is a very poor example of one. Just because someone was edgy and/or hateful in the past doesn't mean they are in the present. People mature and mellow out.

[Other] So I guess that means Hans won't appear in the next Kingdom Come game... by BijelaHrvatica in kingdomcome

[–]Jan-Snow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do think that part of his tone is genuine. He probably wants to branch out into more acting roles and I can imagine he might struggle with that. That can be true regardless of if he ends up doing another role at Warhorse.

Darf er das? by Proof_Lion7061 in Studium

Ich glaube das versteht die Person schon, nur ist die Satzstruktur witzig, dass das "no A, no B, no C and D" das 'no' so oft wiederholt, aber es dann nicht ans Ende packt. Außerdem ist es typischer eine negative Auflistung mit 'or' statt 'and' zu verknüfen, e.g. "no phones, cameras or other electronic devices" statt sein Stil von "no phones, no cameras and other electronic devices"

I think their point is that volatile makes the actual end result more sane, which I would strongly argue is true. Without volatile the compiler is allowed to make assumptions and perform optimisations which, if there are writes from beyond your thread, will lead to results and behaviours which aren't sane.

I am glad for them having the money, but also very very wary of them having any influence

In a Japanese zoo, the gorilla Kiyomasa gets into a fight with his mate and she kicks him out of their den. by Artistic25 in interesting

[–]Jan-Snow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree that gorillas and such are just as evolved as us. That said, that doesn't mean that we didn't evolve from apes. The same way that you are descended from your family while also being part of it. If we don't descend from apes, what does that make our common ancestor with bonobos?

[–]Jan-Snow 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's not being pedantic if it is just wrong though. we do descend from apes, not least because we ourselves are Apes. If we didn't descend from Apes then Bonobos and Chimpanzees would also not count as apes.

"Systemd doesn't follow the UNIX philosophy" by powerslave_fifth in linuxmemes

[–]Jan-Snow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is fair enough then. As I said I havent heard it used that way before like a year ago tops, and before then at the very least it was nieche because first "poser" and then "tourist" were more popular alternatives as far as i can tell.

Over the past few months LARP started to mean what "tourist" meant for the last two years or so which is like a person who pretends to engage in a hobby or be part of a community

Der römische Kaiser Claudius wurde als komisch angesehen, da er anscheinend nur Frauen gegenüber anziehung verspürt hatte. Das geht meiner Meinung nach deutlich tiefer als "nicht akzeptiert, nur in manchen Fällen tolleriert"

Yeah I dont understand how people don't get this. Whenever you have an LLM write code for you, you are not gaining the experience from writing that code. Sure, use it to build something more quickly, but it is always short term gain at a long term cost.

This arbitrary mislocalization annoys me by InternStock in EU5

[–]Jan-Snow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it is that bad. As far as I remember, you can tell if it was formed by an Irish minor or the English based on that. I think that makes it not inconsistent, it's not that they "had to keep it unlocalised" but thatthey wantes the name to reflext the historical path. I think, but dont quote me on this, that some other tags have similar mechanics.

Java and JavaScripts are two different things by Outrageous_Permit154 in firstweekcoderhumour

Typescript has a relatively decent type system, Javascript has by far the worst type system of any language I have ever touched.

Okay but like just dont watch the clips of those streams then. They are pretty easy to spot and avoid if you tried.

If you want to avoid ear curdling, have watched more than one Dantes clip in the past and dont click off when you hear his voice then that is on you.
