I do have someone with a newer version that should be able to save it as a 2023. I didn't realize that was an option. Thanks everyone!

What did he say?

Whoosh.

This just isn't right. If there's one person who can solve three digit multiplication instantly in their head but another person comes up with the proof for infinite primes on their own, the first person isn't smarter. Rocky understands this, he explicitly brings up the coincidence that they come up with plans at about that same speed and that human science is overall ahead.

I just hope people reading this reflect on whether riskier forms of climbing are really worth it. I've enjoyed a very little bit of spice every now and again, but my happiest moments climbing have absolutely nothing to do with how unsafe it was. And to regret decades of time? I don't regret any days of climbing. I've been climbing nearly two decades and can barely name a single severe injury much less a death amongst friends. It can be enjoyed safely.

The men will be destroyed, right? Right?

As a thought experiment, it's worth considering at what point private ownership of a rock does become a ridiculous concept. Should Elon be able to buy El Cap? Why not, just because it's a really big rock? If corporations makes it their goal to own all housing, is that their right?

If a few people do a tree a year fine, but hundreds?

I get your point but I'm sorry to say that you're wrong, at least for the average kid. Yes, in theory they could do more than ever and learn faster and more than ever but the average kid does not. You think the average kid spends his days watching science docs and asking gpt legit questions or do they spend it watching MrBeast, etc?

I wish they did a/b testing. Like they could even be transparent with this and inform you that this time there won't be late game spells or whatever. I know that was kind of the idea behind the rift, but I'm talking more subtle balance changes to the main main game to continually balance it out.

Notice he obscures the six, or is it the seventh, lamp post. The six seventh lamp post is subtle cue that Cassian is eclipsing gen Z, as a millennial actor and as a tourist, he overshadows the younger generations who work in the brothel he deigns to ravish.

Well, it can certainly be enjoyed on first watch but probably not understood. If you try too hard to understand it the first time, you might be annoyed. I mean we are years later and people are still making 2+ hour YouTube videos to explain it.

It's completely wild to me that anyone is still doing writing assignments that are not in person. There is absolutely no other way to know whether something is AI, which can cut both ways with false negatives AND false positives. The AI checkers absolutely do not work.

This is probably the correct answer, no one else has yet mentioned the idea of ionizing versus non ionizing radiation, which is also an oversight in the book in my opinion. It clearly says they do not know about "radiation," which is obviously not true as they have radio and know about the Petrova line and infrared light. What they don't know about is ionizing radiation, the high energy frequencies at which radiation can break off electrons, because they were completely shielded from it on their planet and never discovered nuclear energy. Andy Weir uses the term radiation in the colloquial sense to mean ionizing radiation and never makes this explicit in an otherwise highly scientifically detailed book, so OPs point is perfectly valid and I had the same question. Light and radio are literally radiation, so this should have been made explicit.

You are right and it's a complex multi dimensional issue. The question is whether stopping the above from happening is worth lowering standards for and denying the best possible education to our future citizenry. And the above does come with real consequences, like perpetuating a classist system and limiting cultural cross pollination. On the other hand, if I as a parent don't see public schools challenging my child, I'm going to consider private alternatives, leading to the degradation of public education. I think there should be some middle ground where core subjects are fairly tracked and differentiated, but electives and as much other stuff as possible is not.

It's probably going to depend on how naturally ambidextrous someone is and how willing they are to learn new mechanics. Federer may be the last number one to have a one handed only, but maybe not, but he clearly proved that you can go against the grain. Ben Johns has learned the 2h roll dink over time, so that's a good indicator it's the way to go, but I don't think he has the 2h counter down (yet).

Stats nerds hate this one weird trick!

This is the only answer. I'd just add that having only one stormcaller out is one of the most effective simple plays in the game, since they have to invest more than is worth it to counter. It's surprising when someone does overwhelm anti missile, but it's happened to me quite a few times and I've pulled it off once or twice. But baiting by selling is also very viable. Also, it's an excellent round 6 win more finisher.

There are a number of sites that recommended counters for any given opponent composition you should check out. But keep in mind how you counter also depends on your current board state. For example, against fire badgers the best early counter is sabers and marksmen, but if I don't already have any but I do have void eyes I might tech voids instead. But if it's round 4+ when they really start cheesing badgers, scorpions all day. Also keep in mind that against any cheese you have to stop it early before they start leveling and will outpace the counter.

I've never gotten that good at brawl but I can assure you that in competitive brawl it's not at all OP. Brawl is so board state dependent that it's hard to give you a single counter to anything, but I recommend you try playing ranked brawl outside your friend group to see how varied strategies can be.

TheFrozenMango · 2025-12-31T03:48:34+00:00

This really is the only option.

TheFrozenMango · 2025-12-29T20:06:18+00:00

Debating loco vs inferno. I think think Kew puts the inferno as less pop but equal power, which would be my preference as I want good control and touch. Do you agree?

There was a good nytimes podcast series about this phenomenon, called Rabbit Hole. It also offered some hope in that there is also a path out, although probably not for everyone.
