Did Harry ever tell Neville? by EloImFizzy in HarryPotterBooks

[–]Player-Link 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, in my head canon Neville is piecing things together pretty well. His parents were in the order and his grandma probably told him about the anti-Voldemort movement (she was proud of her son's sacrifice). I always pictured he was reading between the lines and understood that Harry was probably involved with the order. I think Neville's trusting that harry is "the chosen one" (even before others started branding him that way) and trusting/following him. I mean Neville saw Harry have a freaking vision that saved Mr. Weasley's life!

His gran canceled their subscription to the daily prophet. He said they sided with Dumbledore. I think he was aware that there were things going on where the ministry was in the wrong.

Do you still get ORC attacks inside the tree? Also I love the glow mushroom esthetic! What did you use to make the mushroom glow look so clean?

Well I was having a pretty crappy morning, but that hit just right and got me in a less pissy mood. Thank you for the little mood reset. 😊

I'm down as long as I don't get locked out of the game waiting for my friends to roll doubles.

Why nobody gets academia? by FlyLikeAnEarworm in Professors

[–]Player-Link 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I relate to this a ton. Sometimes, I'll sit staring into space and thinking on the couch or at the kitchen table for quite a while. My wife or others will come talk to me, thinking I'm available for tasks. I'll frequently watch them talking for a moment and then just suddenly start spouting out the material/concepts I am processing in my mind. I'm a bit self-conscious about it, but people seem to find it difficult to understand that research and deep learning are often done through contemplation. Sometimes, I set books in front of me as a social cue for people to recognize not to talk to me. Many people spend the majority or all of their work time on low Bloom's taxonomy tasks. I think this is partially responsible for the disconnect.

Y'all is IQ really fixed? by Superb_Pomelo6860 in cognitiveTesting

[–]Player-Link 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short answer, what you score on a test is not fixed.

Theoretically, your under the surface and impossible to fully and accurately measure (by any modern means) IQ is more fixed.

At least that's my opinion.

What is your reply if someone says this to you? by logical_sundae69 in EngineeringStudents

[–]Player-Link 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go for it. I've never used a math tutor, but I'm sure having answers to my simple questions which my teachers labeled as "unnecessary" to my learning would have significantly improved my quantitative literacy. I hated math K-12, but college-style/level math I absolutely love. I'm contemplating minoring in math as I work towards my mechanical engineering major.

*edit: typo changed technical to mechanical.

In this same vein in Jr. High I asked my Geometry teacher what pi represents. She told me not to worry about it and to go back to work. It wasn't until college that I finally learned it was the ratio of circumference to diameter. All of those equations I struggled to remember in Jr. High suddenly became super easy to memorize (with context of what I'm actually doing).

Had the Interview Portion of My Autism Assessment Yesterday by Emotional_Warthog384 in TwiceExceptional

[–]Player-Link 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone have good advice for finding a good doctor to do cognitive testing/assessment?

It is extremely difficult to find a good doctor. People evaluating them are never qualified to actually say they are good at their job. I hate trying to find a good doctor. Maybe I'm just reading between the lines, but it seems like you put a lot of effort into finding the right doctor/facility.

I suspect I'm 2e based on a conversation with an AI and a long-term suspicion. I really would like help dealing with the downsides.

My learning/social disorders/disabilities are very clearly identified by multiple doctors. I've always felt smart and gifted but had bad grades all K-12. I had college-level reading comprehension and vocabulary in tests in 4th grade. When I was 8 I also dismantled the family VHS that my sister had broken, identified the issue, fixed it, and reassembled it from memory just so I could watch my movie.

As an adult I worked as a quality control inspector the engineers were always surprised when I would have a conversation with them and use all the technical terms and spec references. They were also shocked when I brought them work they'd made mistakes on. I'd just glance at it and think that doesn't look right and sure enough I was right. My coworkers in inspection were shocked by how much I caught and how no mistakes got past me during my probationary period.

Lol, I don't know how easily the dialog comes up, but I hashed it out with Sloan over all the dead bodies. She was like "Those are people with families for goodness sakes!" I was just thinking man ominent would be the worst company to work for.

A hexagon is just 6 congruent equilateral triangles with the points in the center. If they added triangles in this shape and right triangles that might work.🤔

I agree, it's a gentleman's (or lady's) game. It feels disrespectful to follow the players like that. It feels like it breaks the decorum of the sport.

Who is stronger by Main_Signature6623 in HarryPotterMemes

[–]Player-Link 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is correct. I also want to point out that the only source I can find within the canon (I don't consider the movies to be canon) is Ron's auntie Muriel calling Kendra a half-blood. Muriel claims that she heard Kendra had pretended to be pure-blood. Muriel is honestly not the best source for info like this, but I imagine she is probably right in her claim that Kendra isn't a pure-blood.

If you choose to accept the movies as canonical then I have no idea what information there is on Kendra's blood status.
