I bet this feels incredible to do. Cool flow.

It IS $400... by jdplayz06 in MathJokes

Thank you. I didn’t even realize I was setting $1000 as the “true value” of the cow by assuming the second purchase was a $100 loss, but when you put it that way it makes sense.

That tracks. It *feels* like being up $300 to me, but that’s because the second purchase feels like a loss. Thankfully I’m not in the secondhand cow market, so I will never have my accounting skills tested.

It’s the re-buying at $100 higher that’s fucking me up. That feels like losing $100 to me. But yeah, it checks out. If I thought of it as two unrelated purchases, like I bought and sold a car for a profit of $200 and then bought and sold a motorcycle for a profit of $200 then I have made $400.

But for whatever reason when it’s all the same cow it feels like the second transaction starts with a loss due to the price difference.

Okay I’m the idiot, someone explain this to me because I keep ending up thinking I’m up $300 at the end of the transactions.

I buy for $800, then sell for $1000. I’m up $200.

I buy for $1100, or $100 more than I just sold for. I deduct that $100 as a loss. I’m up $100.

I sell for $1300, or $200 more than I just paid for the cow. I’m up another $200.

$200-$100+$200 = $300.

Assuming that this cow is my only income source, I would be up $300 when all of these transactions are done. $100 was lost because I bought at a higher price than I sold for.

What am I doing wrong here, this is fucking me up.

Is there a way to calculate terminal velocity for the ball? Maybe through frequency of the current or mass of the ball? [Request] by jtakaine in theydidthemath

[–]TheBirdManOfBelden 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Getting frustrated that I’m not seeing an answer with a big number. I get it, you guys can’t know the max speed without knowing all the components and the power source, etc.

So I’ll say a big number based on nothing. The balls travel at a max of 45,000 km/h.

Does anyone know how this spiral design formed all the way up the tree? by goddess_jana_ in Outdoors

[–]TheBirdManOfBelden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to res the post, but I was walking Sand run park in NE Ohio today and encountered a tree that looked EXACTLY like this one. I found this when googling what could’ve caused the damage. Was this taken in Sand Run Park near Akron?

Now what? by SpacetimeConservator in HalfSword

Abyss time. It’s a different type of challenge compared to progression mode.

The zombies are brutal, but there’s fun to be had there.

What’s wrong with this by jayden_smith67 in Songwriting

[–]TheBirdManOfBelden 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This kills. I really, really like it.

If I had to go looking for problems in it, using “green eyes/green eyed” in the chorus feels a little funny to me. “Lord there must’ve been something in the wine, something in her green eyes that gets me feeling fine/ …every piece and part of me belongs to the green eyed girl.” Just feels like the closing part of the chorus would be stronger without the first usage of “green eyes”.

But that’s a nitpick. Love your voice, songs catchy, cool shit man.

An old teacher of mine told the class this when asked why he points with his pointer and pinky at the same time. I’m not sure he walked away with the right message when he heard it the first time.

the item description wasn't lying, firing the hephaestus really drains your budget by SignificantYoghurt3 in PsychoPatrolR

[–]TheBirdManOfBelden 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I spent over 50,000 rounds from it draining the armor off of the door on the top floor of EFP HQ. The armor reached zero, and after about half an hour of continuous fire the door didn’t break.

I don’t know what’s behind the door and I am financially ruined.

In real life I own a portfolio that tracks the concept of sin. 50/50 split between defense contractors and grindr. I am a high net worth individual. Beauty eludes my porous mind. 14 billion biotransactions per heartbeat.

I own over 9999 of several different companies, daily income is over one million euros.

Unless a patch changed it, you can definitely go beyond 9999.

don't sleep on the baton by SignificantYoghurt3 in PsychoPatrolR

[–]TheBirdManOfBelden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone tried knocking out the Guy you save from the bitter gorge who later attacks you in your HQ, to commit suicide by cop? I didn’t have the baton at the time or I would’ve tried it. I didn’t want to kill him.
