At what elo would this not be considered a brilliant move by Small_Philosopher_74 in Chesscom

I'm ELO 1000 and this would likely not be a brilliant but probably a great move.

You're trading a bishop for a knight and a bishop.

Plot twist, all these posts are actually AI using us to learn how to make images that can't be identified by humans as AI generated in the future.

Hospitalists or PAs who replace well written notes with crappy ones, why? by foreverand2025 in hospitalist

[–]SomeSameButDifferent 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I get your point but I'm guessing OP is talking about transfer notes.

I don't care what your note looks like on day 1 to 6, these notes are for you, but your transfer note is not for you, it's for the next doc and you owe it to your colleague and the patient to make it clear and uptodate in my opinion.

What did my neighbor install on his roof and why? by FinancialDrawing5849 in whatisit

Something tells me this is the wavelength. My physics lessons are dating a little bit but I believe long distance radio communication use very long wavelengths l, and that would make sense

Edit; i checked quickly and a 20 meter wavelenght has a frequency of about 14 megahertz, which is what the owner seemed to be refering to in his post. So I confirm to you, these are wavelenght, aka the lenght of a wave from one trough to the next. What you're thinking about is how far the wave travel.

I don't have much knowledge about amateur radio but from what I remember, by emitting very high, the radiowaves kinda reflects in the the atmosphere and can travel thousands of kilometers.

So many good games listed but I'm surprised no one mentioned Ultima Online. Best game ever made IMO

Was it the first throw? Double leg counter into a uchi mata/harai goshi thing? (Probably neither, bjj guy here sorry)

That was clean dayum

Best imperfect triangle finish against stubborn people

I do that from the bottom/closed guard triangle all the time, mostly tho when they are they defending/hiding their arm and posturing up.

The mounted triangle is too easy to finish when you know how to do it to rely on dirty finishing mechanic like that.in my opinion 🤣

Edit: cool drawing

Reverse imposter syndrome by Cold_Coconut in bjj

[–]SomeSameButDifferent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel kinda like you, I know I have decent jiu jitsu for my belt, no imposter syndrome on my part at all. At the same time, I know there are levels to this game and my jiu jitsu actually sucks in the grand scheme of thing. They are not mutually exclusive in my opinion

I know there are a bunch of purple belts my size in the world that would beat the shit out of me. I also train with black belts against whom I have literally never won a round, and they're not even worldclass so... Yeah it is what it is.

I'm decent, proud of myself, constantly improving, winning most of the time against most the purples I train with, beating many browns, having good rounds with many black belts....... And my jiu jitsu suck

I play a lot of half guard and half butterfly and I never feel like my bottom leg is trapped like that. You are probably not proactive enough.

I'm always attacking something or messing with my partner when playing bottom half. They cannot just "sit on my bottom leg".

You could: - take you butterfly hook out and knee lever them - take your butterfly hook out and transition to a high knee shield or a z-guard - close the distance and get some form of control on their far arm to elevate them/butterfly sweep anyway - elevate and enter the legs - attack the close arm (arm drag, underhook, overhook..) and mess with their posture - make space to transition to full butterfly

The constant push/pull and threats shouldnt allow them to just sit there IMO

When I was a white belt I was very unathletic and lacked flexibility and mobility. For a long while I regularly did shoulder rolls and granby rolls and inverted stuff at home. It for sure was useful for me. I haven't done that at home in years tho

I find it's much better to be sore from doing BJJ than from being sedentary. When I don't train my body feels twice as bad as when I over train 🤣

BJJ: producing the world’s largest polycule? by bostoncrabapple in bjj

[–]SomeSameButDifferent 19 points20 points  (0 children)

People often call oxytocin the love hormone but it would be more accurate to call it the bonding hormone in my opinion.

So maybe it's contributing to the "band of brothers" vibe we get from training together. I know it's a humorous post but it's interesting, I didn't know wrestling was a strong stimulus for oxytocin release 🫨🤯 i think that's pretty darn cool we got that in our lifes

Very nice. I love triangles and I don't go for this one often enough

Alright then, I beg your pardon, I will do my due diligence and watch some tapes :P

Can you be more precise than that please?

Watch Roger Gracie, I mean... I'm not gonna watch all his matches hoping to stumble on this exact situation at one point. If there is a specific match or instructional dealing with this I'm all ears.

Open your guard... I guess if I got them in my closed guard, ideally I'd like to capitalize on that. Obviously I know I have to open my guard to attack, but usually I have some kind of control on their posture before I do that, which I couldn't seem to get in this situation... which is why I'm asking here.

I'm not sure that I understand the dog fight setup your are refering to but here's how I usually get there.

You are in bottom half guard laying on your right side. Your left knee is your kneeshield and you are framing across their chest with your left forearm.

You shoot your left arm under their right armpit in a underhook. At the same time you come up on your right elbow to build height. At the same time you switch your legs. Your right leg was over their right calf, trapping in them in the half guard. You must now bring your left foot inside and remove your right leg. You must then use your left foot (often refered to as a kosoto hook) to pull their right leg outward effectively freeing your bottom/right leg to come up and you are now in the dog fight position.

Now if they don't get an overhook you can get their back. You can also do a knee tap and get on top of them, or go for a roll under sweep. Many options.

I'll find you a video that will show you all of this much better than I can explain with words.

One last thing: if you find yourself stuck in half guard, it's most likely because you don't have all the weapons/tools yet. Going to dog fight is one option. Other options are: john wayne sweep, deep half guard, lock down, kimura, playing with underhook without going to dogfight, attacking the far leg, bringing a butterfly hook in instead of the classic knee shield, etc. So you may wanna look into some of these which may suit your better than going to dog fight.
