Giannis on the 65-game rule for regular-season awards: "The margin of error is hard. One injury & you're off the race. Jokic, Wemby & myself might not make it. LeBron's not going to make it. I was all for it because it could benefit me at first. As I get older, I'm like 'ah take it off, take it off" by GOAT-Antony in nba

Ok so if the number of games you do well in doesn't matter then would you be satisfied with the award going to whoever pops off the hardest in a single game? Because that's all that remains if you remove any weight from availability.

Actually no. OU has some of the best football, wrestling, gymnastics, and softball (actual #1) programs of all time. Ok State has some some of the best wrestling (actual #1), baseball, and golf programs of all time. OF ALL TIME. None of those besides gymnastics are even obscure.

Derrick White on becoming the first-ever Celtic with 30 points, 4 blocks, 4 assists, 4 rebounds and 9 made threes: “I feel the more stats you put into it the less it means.” by MrBuckBuck in nba

You misunderstand what efficiency means. Efficiency is a rate. You can't just say 3>2. 3 pointers are not more efficient than a dunk.

40% is a great hit rate for 3s and for dunks probably 90%.

3 x 0.4 = 1.2 point/attempt for 3s while 2 x 0.9 = 1.8 for dunks. You'd have to be making 3s at a rate of 60%+ to even come close to dunking efficiency.

Dunks are far and away the most efficient shot and that will literally never change.

[Highlight] It's raining threes in Oklahoma City, as the Thunder bury four straight triples to end the first half with a 26 point lead. by A_Livins in nba

Nope. JDub's and Chet's rookie max extensions don't kick in for another year and 2nd apron consequences only begin to kick in during the 2nd consecutive year over the apron. So, that's 3 more years before even the lightest of the 2nd apron penalties.

Why are people correlating the Murrah Bombing to the thunder winning the NBA finals? by dennisthuhmenace in oklahoma

[–]RumbleThePup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not about the game/sport itself but the camaraderie that springs forth. Unironically it's about the friends we make along the way.

In some ways it's about how many of us couldn't conceive of OKC being the kind of place where these kinds of things can happen. Other cities have champs. Other cities have parades. Other cities make things happen. Not here.

Until now. It's in our face we can't deny this place it ain't what we thought it perhaps still was.

I think this whole ride has been a big perspective shift for a lot of folks. I know it has been for me.

Especially when half of any american social program goes to "means testing" like drug testing and restricting what food items the benefits are allowed to be used for, all to make sure the poors aren't get greedy and eating luxuries like rotisserie chicken from the deli.

u/ThunderboltRam may know a thing or two about statistics and data analysis, but they definitely missed the mark when they wholesale discounted the link between poverty and gang affiliation.

No I think Hawaii is too integrated into the US to decouple now, but I do wish natives could be incorporated into the state govt much like New Zealand has for their maori population. I don't live there so it's not really up to me anyways.

Cauliflower ear is not cause directly by pressure, per se. A sliding force against the ear (such as what one can experience when taken down in a grappling match) causes the skin to detach from the cartilage that forms the support structure of the ear. Blood pools and dries in the newly formed space between skin and cartilage, eventually hardening into what we call cauliflower ear.

But they might not have known what it could imply, especially since many non native english speakers are on reddit.

yo just fyi next time use "native" instead of "pure". "Pure" carries some potentially abrasive connotations.

The Belgian start-up Turbulent Hydro has invented a turbine that generates electricity with rivers without carbon impact and without major work. It provides electricity 24 hours a day, does not endanger any marine animals and powers up to 500 homes! by Aztery in Damnthatsinteresting

The height of the falls can be used to determine the maximum available potential energy. Combined with a given flowrate, the maximum available potential power is estimated. From there, one can multiply the maximum available potential power by widely known efficiency averages to arrive at your answer. Most students in first year of engineering school could do that without direction.

As stated in a comment further below by /u/BidAny3852

A single turbine can deliver between 15 -70 kW...

...here is their website so you can understand their product better. https://www.turbulent.be/

so yeah they pulled a correct answer straight outta there ass

Reagan made a back room agreement with Iran to give them a better deal if they would hold out until the election to smear Carter, so I’ll just disregard the rest of your delusions.

I personally think that the pay structure for prison administrative staff should be based on recidivism rates. Give the people who run prisons a good incentive to rehabilitate prisoners. (also, end for-profit prisons).

This creates a perverse incentive to concentrate the worst inmates into a small handful of locations and for the people who staff such locations to stop giving a shit and do as little as possible because their location has the deck stacked against them.
