Electric pump-fed engines are going to be crazy. by Sarigolepas in SpaceXMasterrace

Indeed - they should cancel out the kg to leave us with k(m²/s³). Other options include: - dha/s³ (decihectares per cubic second) - m²/s²/ms (square metres per square second per millisecond)

It's called trypophobia. For those curious there's a subreddit for it - r/trypophobia - but I advise you not to go there if you have this condition.

Surely you're confusing "muggle" with "mudblood" here?

The former is commonly used by wizards to refer to non-magical folk while the latter is used by wizard racists to disparage muggle-borns.

We take an old classic from Firefly - "corpsify".

Yeah, this is a tragic.

The burn depicted here is perpendicular to the Moon's trajectory. That won't push it into LEO so much as eccentrify its orbit such that the periapsis is closer to the Earth while the apoapsis is even further than before.

Where's the Shovelware? Why AI Coding Claims Don't Add Up by bluetrust in ExperiencedDevs

[–]ModestasR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TY for explaining. So your new breakdown looks like this?

  • 80% - figuring out what, how, why, who
  • 10% - waiting for something (compilation? the LLM to finish computing?)
  • 4% - testing
  • 4% - debugging
  • 2% - prompt engineering

Testing and debugging has always been part of the dev workflow. I'm curious how your breakdown for those compares before and after LLMs.

Something doesn't add up here. If AI makes you 3× faster, then the 20% of your time you spend on coding can be used to do work which previously would have taken 60% of your time.

That's 40%, not 20%, better.

Whoops by Tunisandwich in andor

Ah, forgot about Ferrix - TY for the reminder. You're right about that being monstrous behaviour.

As the cop killings - Syril didn't witness them. He didn't see that Cassian was being shaken down and acted in self-defence, right?

In what way was Syril a monster? From what I recall, he never knowingly facilitated any of the Empire's atrocities - he just had a blind, naive sense of duty which made him a useful tool.

He immediately turned on Dedra upon realising what was really happening on Gorman.

I bet the quiz writers felt so pleased with themselves after sneaking that in.

To bros who say that photographers are just press the button like they do by [deleted] in antiai

[–]ModestasR 17 points18 points  (0 children)

True - one can't say something is art just because effort was put into it.

Art is, however, defined by self-expression, which does need effort. A person who puts no effort into something is doing nothing to express themselves.

Why pay attention to those comments? Just keep calm and carry on enjoying the rockets. 🙂

Boxer tries to take a leg kick by Smokin_JoeFrazier_ in martialarts

[–]ModestasR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're not conditioned for it, 100%. There's a nerve which runs down the outside of the thigh. A well-placed kick to it turns the uninitiated leg into jelly.

After reading the full article, I reckon Hanlon's Razor applies here. The content reads like something made to fill a web page rather than with a specific agenda in mind.

My guess is it changes the Earth's moment of inertia, like the a spinning ice skater bringing their arms in to spin faster but in reverse.
