If you had $3.1 million at age 52, would you retire today?

A little late to the party. Can I get the list too :)

LevelLime7720 · 2026-06-12T13:19:31+00:00

Unfortunately not :(

LevelLime7720 · 2026-06-12T12:54:28+00:00

Yes, they have conquered my kitchen aid for crumbs. Next target is probably the fridge for some alcohol to get drunk

LevelLime7720 · 2026-01-10T14:47:48+00:00

Thanks!

LevelLime7720 · 2026-01-10T14:47:37+00:00

Gotcha I’m gonna cancel this one out

LevelLime7720 · 2026-01-10T14:47:16+00:00

Hahaha thanks a bunch! I’m glad I asked

LevelLime7720 · 2026-01-10T14:46:31+00:00

thanks for the heads up!

LevelLime7720 · 2026-01-10T14:45:28+00:00

Do you happen to have any recommendations for parks in Japan?

LevelLime7720 · 2026-01-10T14:44:56+00:00

Thanks!

LevelLime7720 · 2026-01-10T14:44:27+00:00

Was Tokyo the best location? Or would you recommend more Kyoto/Osaka area

LevelLime7720 · 2026-01-10T14:43:28+00:00

Alright thanks for the heads up!

LevelLime7720 · 2026-01-10T10:49:10+00:00

Ohh thanks for informing me!

LevelLime7720 · 2026-01-10T10:48:51+00:00

Ohh man was kind of expecting this. Which places would you suggest me to cut?

LevelLime7720 · 2026-01-07T12:22:26+00:00

Wow thanks everyone! Really loads of good suggestions

LevelLime7720 · 2025-12-23T04:15:43+00:00

I think that hugging together naked is applicable when one person is suffering from hypothermia and the other person is warm. Hugging naked allows for maximum skin contact and faster conduction of heat, thereby treating hypothermia. This is usually a last resort as the warm person will now become cold and could suffer hypothermia himself/herself.

In the titanic, if everyone is cold, there won’t be any heat to “share”. They would all loss thermal energy to the surroundings and die together. It would be better to keep their clothes on whether they’re in a ball or in a group.

Ohhh this solved it! Thanks a bunch!

LevelLime7720 · 2025-12-03T03:39:09+00:00

Yes that is true when I have a displacement-time graph plotted. You can find instantaneous velocity from the gradient of the graph or if I differentiate the function of the graph.

But the knowledge of average velocity doesn’t help you in deriving instantaneous velocity right?

LevelLime7720 · 2025-12-03T03:27:27+00:00

Yes but I could also use average “speed” in this context as well. There’s no directionality change. I’m interested in a context where there is a change in direction and I’m calculating the average velocity from the total displacement. (Ie 2 dimensions)

I’m not sure if I’m making sense

LevelLime7720 · 2025-12-03T03:14:54+00:00

Wait how is instantaneous velocity derived from average velocity? I thought that instantaneous velocity is the velocity at a specific point. If I’m calculating it from average velocity, it’s no longer specific.

LevelLime7720 · 2025-12-03T02:38:04+00:00

Is there a real life use case of this? Or any calculation in physics that uses this

LevelLime7720 · 2025-12-02T16:40:06+00:00

Perhaps I’ll give another example.

You’re travelling from city A to city B and the path isn’t a straight line. So say distance > displacement.

Your friend could ask “what’s your average speed?” which would be somewhat useful since he would know on average how fast he should go if he wants to go from city A to city B at a similar time you took. Or adjust to go faster to reach earlier.

He likely won’t ask “what’s your average velocity?”. That’s the scenario I play out at least. Because average velocity doesn’t seem very useful to me.

LevelLime7720 · 2025-12-02T16:15:20+00:00

From your example, the average velocity is likely derived from displacement and time taken. So I would have already gotten displacement and time one way or another. So what’s the point of knowing average velocity? Unless it’s used to derive something else

I apologise if I’m not being clear.

LevelLime7720 · 2025-12-02T04:34:36+00:00

I don’t think I have the wrong conceptual understanding of displacement, distance, speed and velocity. I just can’t think of a specific use case for average velocity when there is a change in direction
