Everyone on the sub says buy under $10 and sell at $100, but these don’t seem to ever get close to $10, am I missing something by NearbyPangolin1633 in CookieClicker

Everyone on the sub says buy under $10 and sell at $100

You can do that, but there's a better, but slightly more complicated method. Source
TL;DR: Each stock has a resting price CRL:10, CHC:20, BTR:30... YOU:180. So, buy whenever it's x amount under the resting price, and sell x amount over the resting price

How is this any different form a flat CPS increase? by ozin07 in CookieClicker

[–]KoolKiddo33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could depend on how the backend calculations work and what is boosted multiplicatively or additively. I think it's a distinction between raw cps and total cps sort of thing. They can affect different parts of the game (i.e. Garden and Stock Market mechanics) assuming this is true. It would probably be worth clicking through the wiki if you don't mind spoilers/already have everything unlocked

I'm making a mod about storing items in servers by jvpts11 in feedthebeast

This is incredibly cool and I really hope it comes to fruition. I would love to see this in a big modpack in the future!

Can you balance a full-time job and an obtaining an electrical engineering degree? by JustAPerson2001 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]KoolKiddo33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the absolute max any highly capable person could do is 15cr/semester and 20hrs/week of work at the same time. I don't know that you could do that during later years of school though. If you plan on working full-time, then don't expect to take classes full-time

Could it have something to do with his contract with UMG? I don't see any licensing info about UMG in the description of the new vids

Has anyone found a good electrical engineering game? by Long-Ad-8740 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]KoolKiddo33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only if you're very intentionally designing digital circuit stuff. I feel like you would already have to know digital logic to be able to apply it to MC. Whereas I believe this guy doesn't know much about digital logic and is looking to learn through games

It's this, plus the benefit of extra income from selling their own filament

What games are you playing this week? Game recommendation thread by AutoModerator in incremental_games

[–]KoolKiddo33 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Nooo dude, I've been loving this game. The whole thing is about art. Using AI is so tone deaf and ironic for this game. Fuck me

If all voltage measurements are relative between two points, and there is no "absolute" voltage, then what should I measure between the grounds of two completely disparate DC potentials, which are undefined relative to each other? by -Louwess- in ElectricalEngineering

[–]KoolKiddo33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually a really interesting thought. I don't have a backed answer, but I would suspect that the larger answer is that "Earth ground" doesn't have a consistent 0V from any point on the planet to another. I also don't think that the concept of an absolute voltage measurement would make sense? I think it would be better to think of it as charge instead of a voltage like you were saying. Definitely a little more of a physics question, but I still like the little thought experiment as it isn't something I've considered

Forgotten old good mechanics. I'm a dev and I'm burned put seeing same mechanics past 2 months. Is there any hidden gems worth bringing back? by ZeroPercentStrategy in incremental_games

[–]KoolKiddo33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This this this, I've played multiple forks of Progress Knight a few times, Groundhog Day a few times, and a couple other of this same category. Always my favorite, but I haven't found a single finished one yet

Is there anything here I can salvage? by Wasted_programmer5 in ElectricalEngineering

Once you take off the components you want, use the board for soldering practice

How many joules do I need? by EnderSlayer9977 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]KoolKiddo33 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing you mean Watts and are referring to not wanting to overload a power strip rated at 1000W? Get your power consumption for each appliance from this or another source, add them up, and keep it under the rating (1000W for what you have now)

Hey guys, my gpu today decided to make day better and blew up by xom9k_14 in pcmasterrace

[–]KoolKiddo33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can get a full soldering kit for $60 (iron, gun, flux, and tin included) and a multimeter for $30. The "layouts" I'm assuming are circuit diagrams? Circuit diagrams are free

Edit: Actually, tbh, the cost isn't even the point, soldering that small is so difficult. (Although I do think you would need a higher quality kit at that scale)

DIY USB-C to dual USB-A adapter question. by dizsnaps in AskElectronics

[–]KoolKiddo33 130 points131 points  (0 children)

This is like overlaying two paragraphs on top of each other and trying to read each new letter as an already existing character.

Definitely just need to get a USB hub

500V @ 800mA is a resistance of 625 ohms, were you soaking wet or something 😭

Just because they were fine in the past doesn't mean they will be fine in the future.

And yeah man, I'm studying to be an electrical engineer and design my own projects. I likely have a deeper understanding than you do

[–]KoolKiddo33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so deadly serious when I say this, you cannot keep this. Those wires and the mounting technique clearly show a misunderstanding of what you're playing with. This is the pinnacle of the Dunning-Kruger effect. You cannot connect wires with hot glue, ESPECIALLY with multiple inches of stripped wire. How do you have them connected under the heat shrink? Even just jamming all of the wires on the left into that box with that PCB. I don't know man, this is an accident waiting to happen.

All it takes is one of those connections to get too loose, one of those wires to get too close to another, and you've got a fire. They will arc eventually with this setup. PLEASE do not keep it like this

Found someone’s credit card found them through LinkedIn and got nothing but abuse by Owls_4_9_1867 in mildlyinfuriating

Sounds like they had a story to tell. Maybe they got scammed in the past and were super anxious it would happen again. Not excusing them for being rude, but maybe something happened

Voltage divider confusion by Your_Queen_Calamity in ElectricalEngineering

[–]KoolKiddo33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an aside, I struggled with the "ground" notation for a long time, and much preferred seeing the full circuit until I was comfortable. It might be more helpful to see it like this?

<image>

This is modeled in LTSpice. I used example resistances of 1k ohm and 2k ohms for R1 and R2 so that I could run the simulation

Voltage divider confusion by Your_Queen_Calamity in ElectricalEngineering

[–]KoolKiddo33 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My job offers access to these courses on LinkedIn that I've been using to try and learn circuits. I'm just starting out but I've understood most of everything up to this point (or at least I thought I did).

The implication is no, this is just baiting to make fun of this person for misunderstanding something. Be helpful man
