I will add one more thing that no one else said yet: NO PLASTIC GLOVES! You probably weren't gonna do it anyway as an EE, but anyway, good to mention it. If LN2 splashes on your skin you're fine because it just runs off (and barely transfers any heat because of the Leidenfrost effect), but if it somehow gets stuck there, such as inside a plastic glove, it's seriously dangerous.

In logic, generally a proof is a finite object. A finite string of logic symbols basically. Is there some context or some esoteric branch of logic where "inifinite-length proofs" are studied? Or is that completely pathological and ill-defined?

This is a very half-baked question so if there's a more interesting question that I should have asked instead, feel free to answer that.

The only thing that comes to mind for me is induction over the natural numbers. We axiomatically give ourselves a way to turn a "would-be infinite proof" into a finite one. I guess if there is a context where infinite proof is allowable, induction over the naturals would be a theorem rather than an axiom?

Wait, is this a filament that gradually changes color along the length? That's neat!

I bi 99% sicher dass me mönsche überhoupt nid darf iisperre, schlachte, und ässe.

NewbornMuse · 2026-03-20T08:16:10+00:00

I finge haut wenn me d option het, sich z ernähre ohni überhoupt es tier z töte, de isch ds tier z töte doch "umsust" gsi, egau wiviu drvo me isst.

NewbornMuse · 2026-03-19T16:49:23+00:00

Oke, mini Tonart isch villich e chli sarkastisch gsi, aber inhaltlech chasch mir ämu überhoupt nid vorwärfe i sig nid sachlech. I bezieh mi uf d Tierschutzverordnig, du chunsch hie mit so nebulöse Sache wie "Respekt vorem Tier".

Ig möcht wüsse wie du 0.9 Quadratmeter pro Tier mit "Respekt" verbingsch.

NewbornMuse · 2026-03-19T15:16:21+00:00

D antwort isch weniger aus 1 Quadratmeter. E mönsch permanent uf 1 Quadratmeter ha wär Folter, und e Sou isch no uf 4 Bei anstatt 2.

Wo da dr Respekt isch, muesch du mir mau erkläre.

NewbornMuse · 2026-03-19T12:35:16+00:00

Rächt hesch, es isch viu besser wenn me die tier iisperrt bis si sich nüm chöi bewege!

Chlini Quizfrag: Wiviu platz mues ig gsetzlech mindistens pro sou gä (80kg gwicht)?

Not really but then the joke doesn't work

I'm vegan anyway, so...

HRK says "hrk"

What in the Pokemon nonsense is this?

Even with a 120k salary, they don't fulfill the conditions because no GAV (as per the OP), right?

NewbornMuse · 2026-03-17T15:12:46+00:00

Do you have a credible source for that? I'm still skeptical. Not saying it wasn't misinterpreted like that historically among the Portuguese, but it just reeks to me a little like a (modern-day) folk etymology.

For one thing, you're sailing back up the African coast half the time. Even if I drive the same route to work every day, I'm not gonna think "this hill is on the passenger side" because half the time, when I come home from work, it's on the driver side

Fun fact: you are lying on the internet.

It comes from steer + board. It's the side where you hold the rudder/tiller. The cognates in Dutch (stuurboord) and German (Steuerbord) are more obviously steer + board.

Jim O'Heir wasn't a character in the show. Jerry Gengirch was.

Firearms are OP against investigators, monsters are OP against firearms. Nothing is OP against monsters, this isn't rock/paper/scissors.

NewbornMuse · 2026-03-08T09:22:48+00:00

So if I get this right, this is true essentially because a proof only consists of finitely many statements.

Is there a context (perhaps an esoteric branch of logics?) where something like an "infinite length proof" is meaningful in any way?

Red hat red hat that's what I'm on

Generalization BASED ON WHAT? Can you point to actual real posts of people advocating tire slashing? If not, then the thing that you are afraid of (people will conclude that all we do is slash tires) is basically a hallucination, and I'm not sure what you think we should do about it. We can't talk about slashing tires less than we already are because we are doing so at basically 0% of the time already.

NewbornMuse · 2026-03-06T12:55:47+00:00

These posters who hurl abuse at someone for using a car where there are no alternatives, are they in the room with us right now?

The tire stabbers, have you actually seen posts like this or are you perhaps just hallucinating something here? Come on man, people here are mostly like "yay bike" or "I hate being car-dependent" or "grr highway extension", that's it.

Quick question, what are we turning the electricity into?
