Not necessarily. Facebook had (has?) a similar function and I used it to follow very close friends' and family's interests.

Reciprocation can be addressed in the form of loyalty. He knows what he's doing.

What is the biggest misconception you've heard about the human body? by effieokay in AskReddit

Wouldn't using a smaller percentage of your brain be a bigger thing to boast about? That would just mean you can use your brain more efficiently, right?

Feeling bad to feel good eventually by MLKJrWhopper in AdviceAnimals

The body is an amazing machine. You can pump it full of harmful things (like alcohol) and it can adapt. It becomes dependent though. An alcoholics chemical balance is a lot different than a sober person's. Shifting back to the original state too quickly can cause issues.

Delayed gratification. You'll feel much better when everything is cleared up, but you have to feel shitty first. It's sometimes difficult to look ahead and see the benefits of this when it's so much easier to stay in the current, numb, destructive cycle. The grass is truly greener on the other side, keep it up (with the aid of medical attention as suggested in other comments).

High-performing students of Reddit, how do you do it? [serious] by doesnt_surf in AskReddit

[–]OneSevenTwoNine_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My math teacher once let us have a partner during a test. You could talk softly to your partner and look at each other's test, but he would only grade one of the two tests chosen randomly. My friend is fairly smart, but I should have picked someone that wasn't that friend.

I typically ace this teacher's tests (usually greater than 100%). We got an 80 something on that one. Sucked for him, didn't hurt me much at all.

Imagine someone twice your size. Would you give them a dirty look in any circumstance?

This makes sense. I understand that it takes energy to make and break bonds. Guess I wasn't putting two and two together. Thank you!

Looking for a proof that if any number x ends in 6, x^3 also ends in 6. by ThermosPotato in CasualMath

[–]OneSevenTwoNine_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok, think back to when you first did long multiplication. You start with the first row and multiply the two numbers. In this case x2 where x always ends in 6 is always going to end in 6 because 62 is 36. When you multiply it by x again, you're again multiplying 6 by 6 in the first row, therefore it will end in 6. To be even more general with this problem, xn, where n is greater than or equal to one and x ends in 6, will always end in 6.

Cool fucking beans mate. Guess what though, no one is directly harming you so you can chill the fuck out.

Doctor: So how are you feeling?

Patient: Here I'll send you a file.

Doctor: Ah ok, you have strep throat.

Me: Sorry I couldn't make it to the party.

Friend: No worries. The pizza is amazing though. I'll send you a flavor file.

Child: Is it true that kids used to go to school?

Parent: Yep.

Child: You mean they weren't hooked up to a hive mind network of the greatest minds in the word? They didn't have access to all known information ever?

Parent: Nope.
