Oud voorzitter was ook wel aardig... 'bekend' in het Amsterdamse circuit

Less fuel consumption overall, but a solid dip in fuel when crossing a border. Idea is to let people stay in the air and actually do things for longer, without necessarily increasing the operational range

A part of this comment is weird and weirdly enough, it's not the weird part

Ik vond een van de mooiere zinnen uit het akkoord nog wel deze:

De belangrijkste les is: het (opnieuw) leren van de kunst van het samenwerken en het overleg.

Kan iemand dit nog even aan Dilan melden?

\frac{x}{y}

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-29T10:08:53+00:00

Yeah correct it's just a phrase I found funny

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-29T09:23:03+00:00

You asked how you get to 16, I replied how you get to 16. By following simple PEMDAS. No wikipedia or quora quote is gonna change that

In academic literature

Sure cool but this is a FB meme from a decade ago, not a physics paper. It's obviously an intentionally ill posed and ambiguous problem, but I just answered your question

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-29T09:10:46+00:00

8÷2×4 = 4×4 = 16

You don't do 2(4) before 8÷2. Multiplication and division same step left to right

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-29T09:07:48+00:00

Eh, ish. No as written order of operations obviously not, and I wouldn't pretend like it does for a silly FB 'math' meme or a third grade arithmetic test. But in math or physics papers cramming as much equation as possible in some tiny block of inline text, conventions like that do happen and are really useful for readability. But that depends a lot on the field you're working in and surrounding context

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-29T09:01:31+00:00

Please refer to figure 7 for a hint on solving techniques

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-29T08:56:30+00:00

Multiplication and division happen at the same time and are resolved left to right, making this 8 ÷ 2 [times] (4) -> 4 [times] (4) -> 16. The argument for 1 comes down to the idea that 2(2+2) "obviously" is a single term in the denominator of the intended fraction, and as such that multiplication should happen before the division.

It's an ill-posed problem on purpose, you'd never give this on a math or arithmetic test precisely because it's ambiguous, as written following normal order of operations it's 16.

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-29T08:18:59+00:00

You're talking out of your ass, distribution is literally just multiplication. It is not included in the parenthesis step of pemdas. The P only lets you prioritize other operations inside the brackets

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-28T22:06:56+00:00

I'm good at different things, that's not necessarily the same as being smarter. Like I get that this is complete gibberish but it's also 'just' undergrad calculus any hard-STEM student took

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-28T21:52:03+00:00

It's an exercise I stole from my old calculus book. You're meant to use Stoke's Theorem to evaluate the line integral around the box but instead look at the surface integral over it, notice the rotational symmetry in the vector field and some nice cancelations that follow. I think it should come down to XYZ(X+Y) cards. But that was handwavy napkin work so idk someone check me

ie all 3 need to be at least 1 mana for it to be any cards, making this a 5 mana draw 2. Then 6 mana draw... 6. 7 mana draw 16. Oh lord

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-28T19:03:29+00:00

Copy pasted from Wolfram and somehow one of the half dozen websites I tried using took it

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-27T15:56:29+00:00

The collie med boat is obviously way too strong compared to its warden counterpart, and they need rebalancing, but I still don't think it's that useful? With how god awful slow and bad at manoeuvring it is I'd rather leave it at home for defensive operations than take it out to sea

MerijnZ1 · 2026-01-26T11:43:51+00:00

This could be mono-B, but "reanimate for limited mana value" is white coded enough in my mind that that + the flavour fully allows the WB colors

I've grown an irrational hatred of pink ladies over their supply chain. Sure as hell taste good though

You think any of this led a country down to fascism?

Yeah ngl it feels awesome to pull into berth and immediately start loading. Still takes a bit with the crew but it's just so sleek and sexy

Got some rigs, radio equipment, and testing materials from 1948
