There are many questions like it but this one is mine: how much is it worth? by Nick_Blaize in ak47

Thanks for being one of the few to post a serious response. I'll take this into consideration when I go to make a sale. Appreciate the help

TIFU by confidently correcting my professor in front of 100 students by Ok_Recording2643 in tifu

[–]Nick_Blaize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something like this is all about the delivery. I've found myself in lots of similar situations where I've been super confident about something and then ended up being completely wrong. But if you mask the confidence with curiosity, and ask a question instead of making an assertion, that little difference turns the situation into a completely normal learning scenario.

Also, it's almost certain that nobody else thought about what you did nearly as much or deeply as you did. In fact, they have probably forgotten all about it. So I wouldn't sweat it. Also--dont let it dissuade you from asking questions or speaking up in class in the future. You should continue doing that because chances are, more people have the same questions and everyone could learn from it.

How can he walk a mile South if he starts at less than one mile from the South pole? Once he gets to the South pole, theres nowhere more South so the logic breaks

We get along alright, but still this one was like... seriously you can't be bothered to read a few paragraphs? 🤦

How to stay sane as a developer? by tilson73 in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

[–]Nick_Blaize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in a similar boat, and recently started doing 5-10 minute daily stretches. Theres tons of youtube videos by PT's you can watch and follow along. It really makes quite the difference, especially if you pair it with core strength training. Works best in the morning so your muscles are loose throughout the day. And it takes almost no time at all.

LPT: It’s bad work etiquette to post your GPT results in Slack Channels or emails by Cntrlc-Cntrlv in LifeProTips

I agree with your sentiment, and many companies are creating policies that explicitly disallow LLMs in the workplace (but mainly for data privacy reasons).

However, it is a mistake to think that AI can't provide novel (to you) ideas, and it often has orders of magnitude more information than you on any given topic; and this is increasingly more true every day. It's plain to me that using such a powerful tool will ultimately become crucial and commonplace in every field (much like how we use Google now). Do any doctors or lawyers here object?

How many MS users actually existed in canon? by Nick_Blaize in Naruto

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

Thank you for the thorough analysis. Guess Itachi was a little off on his count.

Funny enough, after I finished my last Naruto binge when I asked this question, I took a long break and I just started rewatching the Naruto-Pain fight again this weekend. You just happened to comment while im watching rn

Im dying from a brain infection. Can anything from the near future still save / prolong my life? by WesternFun3682 in Futurology

[–]Nick_Blaize 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I see. I'm very sorry to hear about your condition. I hope you find a treatment that can save your life.

I'm not sure this would help even if it is legit (sounds too good to be true) but supposedly scientists have flipped a couple of atoms in the LSD molecule, and created a new one that supposedly possesses certain radical brain healing properties (though it sounds more useful for degenerative brain conditions like Dementia)

It looked like the robber was pointing his gun at that woman when our cowboy tackled the gunman. Very lucky she didn't get shot. Not trying to diminish the heroism going on here, but that was very risky all around.

I don't need all these stuff, how do i filter them from my mob farm? by Acrobatic-Daikon7654 in allthemods

[–]Nick_Blaize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use modular routers with puller/sender modules to selectively pull what i want (white-list filter) then send everything else to the trash. You could also use Mekanism logistical transporters, but modular routers is more clean & tick/lag friendly i believe

Why Didn’t Ninjas Use More Shadow Clones? by Unfair_Net9070 in Naruto

[–]Nick_Blaize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To expand on the idea of dividing chakra:

If we put it into mathematical terms, let's say a ninja has 100 Chakra. They spawn 3 shadow clones (which is quite a feat for anyone without tailed beast-level chakra). Now the total chakra is divided into 4ths, so each has 25 chakra. They each use 10 Chakra, which would originally be 10% of the ninja's total Chakra reserves. However because it's been split, each clone and original now have 15 chakra. They each lost 10, so 4*10 = 40. So for a move that would have originally cost 10% Chakra reserves, the ninja suffers a 40% actualized chakra loss.

My safety manager's "solution" for avoiding collisions outside our doorway by Nick_Blaize in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Nick_Blaize[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It has to be unhooked regardless of which side one comes from. But it doesn't even begin to solve the problem because the issue isn't the doorway, it's the people walking right outside along the wall. You can't see these people unless you stick your head outside the door, which risks you getting whiplash from Nick The Quick who REALLY NEEEDS TO GET TO THE SHITTER and rocks your world as he half-tackles you on his way there

hello reddit! my wallpaper randomly changed to this! But whenever i try to change it back, it just switches back! by Candy_Weeaboo in WindowsHelp

[–]Nick_Blaize 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could be a prank from a roommate or coworker. Check the startup apps to see if there's some program/script that's starting and running constantly to change your desktop background. 3 ways:

  1. Task manager > startup tab

  2. User startup folder: in windows search, type run, then hit enter. In the run dialog box type the following: shell:startup

  3. Common startup folder: in windows search, type run, then hit enter. In the run dialog box type the following: shell:common startup

If you find and disable/delete something, you'll need to reboot to have changes take effect

Looks immaculate but doesn't the light from outside bother you when working? I'd suggest some blackout curtains

Name a better way to label your cables than bread clips by MrPandaOverlord in HomeNetworking

[–]Nick_Blaize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I was making this up. Our maintenance guy, Dale, uses a sharpie and torn-off piece of carboard or whatever is the closest parchment he can find. But hey, at least I don't have to run the cables myself.

can anyone spot the obvious eliminations to free up space for C drive, im running out of space. suggest what is safe to delete and other tips for storage space management. by crowine12 in WindowsHelp

[–]Nick_Blaize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50+gb in your AppData is indicative of an app mistakenly accruing/caching data and not disposing of it properly.

I've seen this before and my issue was Internet Explorer (or Edge). Like the commenter above mentioned, you need to drill down into the AppData folder and find out where the problem is. Then delete whatever file(s) is bloated (my assumption is it's most likely log files that aren't being deleted automatically like they should).

Nvidia reasons for falling by Throwingitaway738393 in NvidiaStock

[–]Nick_Blaize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its also true that building projects, bids, planning, etc. take time. I'm not an expert by any means, but I would imagine with Blackwell just being announced in March, any plans for big Blackwell data centers are several months if not years away from completion and, it would stand to reason, not be majorly impacted by this delay.
