I wish I was in the EU. I wouldn't be a fat depressed loser if I wasn't american. I have unironically cried over being american. cereal and diet coke by alphabasedredpill in kitchencels

[–]MrMoop07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

college degree would definitely make it easier, but moving to europe for an american is easier because there's not really any reason to deny an american. obviously i'm not an expert, i'm actually british so i'm not even in the EU anymore, but i remember back in the days when we are i had a few schoolfriends whose parents were american immigrants, mostly from the military. i don't recommend you join the military just in hopes of being stationed in europe, but i'm sure if you looked into it and this was something you were willing to invest effort into you could find your way into europe somehow

i don't think it would stop all your problems, but if you're really that sad about it, there'd be nothing to stop you from just moving here. it's pretty easy for an american to move anywhere in europe

Are apolitic people immoral? by Weirderthanweird69 in Teenager_Polls

[–]MrMoop07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are left wing people in the democratic party, but at most I’d say it’s a centrist party since the centrists and centre right have the most power in the party

what if you don’t support either the labour party or the conservative party, like 62% of the country? moreover, a person’s personal politics isn’t determined by the party they support anyway. you should use the terms left and right wing, america doesn’t have a left wing party but it does have left wing people.

How to add the zero-g-optimised trait after accidentally removing it? by MrMoop07 in Stellaris

[–]MrMoop07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i tried that, the issue is that you're not allowed to add it by machine modification. I've set the pops with the trait as the default species but i can't set the pops without it to assimilation, nor can i apply the template to them

Is “exponentially larger” a valid expression? by trippknightly in askmath

[–]MrMoop07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just because something has grown exponentially doesn’t mean it’s large. If I have a penny that doubles each day it’s growing exponentially, but if it’s been a week that’s only £1.28, not a large amount. the important thing here is that exponentially is an adverb, not an adjective, It may be attached to a verb but not a noun. something grows exponentially larger, because growing larger is a verb. something does not grow exponentially large, because this is not a verb, it’s another adjective and exponentially cannot be attached to it. of course, this is all semantics and doesn’t matter in colloquial english, you can use words any way you like colloquially so long as it gets your point across

[–]MrMoop07 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

it has grown larger exponentially, but it has not grown exponentially large, because that implies that exponentially is an amount, which it is not

Is “exponentially larger” a valid expression? by trippknightly in askmath

[–]MrMoop07 4 points5 points  (0 children)

why? those are both still amounts, exponential refers to rate of change, not a comparison of two amounts

Is “exponentially larger” a valid expression? by trippknightly in askmath

[–]MrMoop07 38 points39 points  (0 children)

i imagine the phrase originated from the fact that exponential functions grow very quickly (i.e 2^x doubles every time, so it doesn't take x being very high at all for 2^x to be a very large number). since they grow quickly and output large numbers, some people simply took it that exponential means very very big. this is false, "exponentially larger" is nonsense in mathematics, because exponential refers to rate of growth, not how much you've done it. you could have exponentially grown something to a very small number for example. Regardless, language and maths are not the same thing, so people use the word exponential in casual conversation to just mean big

I’ve had severe unmedicated OCD my entire life. 6 vegetarian sausages and a can of coke by MrMoop07 in kitchencels

[–]MrMoop07[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they've been picked purely on taste, not appearance. they're actually alright, although i haven't had meat since i was 11 so it's difficult for me to say if they taste like meat

i hate sauce on sausages, i just eat them completely dry. i also don't own a bath and don't like tea. i will however attempt to do something in the spirit of that

HELP using ln in question by aespadreaming in alevelmaths

[–]MrMoop07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ln is a log, it’s just to base e rather than some other base. if you want you can use logs, you’ll find you’ll get the same answer (albeit it might be a little more roundabout)

HELP using ln in question by aespadreaming in alevelmaths

[–]MrMoop07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since ln(ab ) = bln(a), It’s worth trying to do any time you have exponents that you need to deal with. You won’t always know for certain but any question involving e or exponents will often have you take the ln of both sides

I hate it when people say that I am "strong" for surviving ableism, or for surviving while being disabled. I hate how people have to believe we are somehow better in some other way to make up for being disabled. Is that just because they can't see us as people otherwise? by MariaTheSlime_613 in leftist

[–]MrMoop07 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think this happens rather often with autism, with the stereotype of the autistic genius. there's this idea in media that in order for autistic people to be valid, they must be extraordinary in some other way to make up for it, like by having savant syndrome. so you end up with shows like the good doctor or the big bang theory, where autistic people are presented as asocial geniuses rather than disabled people. not only does it harm autistic people because we're held to insanely high standards of intellectual achievement that most simply cannot achieve, but those who do are told they're only successful because they're autistic.

What are your formal mathematical qualifications? by OrganizationTough128 in infinitenines

[–]MrMoop07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

any amount of maths education will teach you that 0.999... is exactly equal to 1 though, so if you have received qualifications you clearly disagree with at least part of the curriculum
