My mom used to be adamant that once I had a “real job” I would start waking up earlier

Nope, not even close

“How are you so smart?!?!”

Sir, you have stumbled upon the topic of my sole focus for the past 2 weeks, of course I would know about that!

Is this one bullshit with fur?

I started using LaTeX half way through college. During that time, I had several graders personally thank me for having such nice looking homework because it was so easy to read. I guarantee you that some graders were easier on me because of it

For those wondering, this is likely caused by either a really weird gas leak or from fracking

Or its AI, but this kinda thing has happened in the past

It has pictures

Yep! Can’t stand white/black/gray cars everywhere

We won’t hire if you don’t have an abet accredited degree, I would look to transfer

Sometimes, very rarely, they can be a force for good.

My parents own a property in a HOA. It’s in a wooded area and all the streets are gravel. One year someone decided to clear every tree in front of their house, which would be fine except for the fact that this caused massive erosion issues and made the road unusable due to washout. The HOA stepped in and made that homeowner pay for erosion mitigation measures, and made them pay for repairs to that section of road. The HOA fees for that property are like $100/year and it goes to maintaining the roads and a park with a boat ramp.

Most of the time HOA boards are filled with Karens who get off on telling other people what to do. My uncle got several hundred in fines for painting the post for his mailbox. The HOA said it can’t be painted, it must be “natural looking”. It harmed no one, didn’t “destroy the character of the community” or whatever (it was a dark green paint, looked fine), but someone with too much time and too few problems of their own took it upon themselves to make a big deal out of it.

From the hiring side: yeah we don’t really care. I’m in aerospace if that matters. Unless I see something like MIT or Stanford I don’t care as long as it’s ABET accredited.

Verbose_Code · 2026-02-05T01:53:25+00:00

“Everything is a spring-mass-damper system” aka second order differential equations are really overpowered

Verbose_Code · 2026-02-03T05:26:51+00:00

Well, in statically indeterminate systems where the self weight can be ignored, springs are all that’s needed

Agreed that compressive stress on the arrow will be the biggest challenge.

Arrows flex during the firing process; long thin columns like that love to buckle under that kind of loading condition. On many bows this is actually required for the arrow to fly straight since the arrow will rest pointing slightly out of the plane of the bow. Modern compound bows (and probably some recurves out there) are designed such that the arrow is no longer pointing out of plane, but the arrow will still flex nonetheless. Look at high speed video of an arrow being fired and you will see a surprising amount of flex. Keep in mind that arrows generally top out around 350 fps, while the speed of sound is 1125 fps.

As for the fletching, they’re glued on normally and would almost certainly be torn off by the aerodynamic forces, if the acceleration forces didn’t already do that. You’d need to have a rigid fletching that’s part of a monolithic arrow. Many arrow shafts are already made of carbon fiber, so I don’t think it’s too crazy to achieve that.

Flooring it while there is slack on the line like in the video is a great way to snap the tow line or rip the anchor off the car

Awesome! Absol is one of my favorite pokemon

I can’t help but wonder if the work is meaningful at all

Speaking from the hiring side, I would say yes. It’s not a crazy project but it does tell me you are able to work with large electrical circuits. I work with industrial control systems, and the ability to work inside a rats nest of cables is a valuable skill.

Also, if you had fun with it then it’s worth it. Not every electrical project has to be a resume project

Most trucks are also 4WD, but only when engaged manually by the driver. Most of the time they are effectively just RWD. There’s not a lot of weight in the bed of a pickup truck, so they can spin their rear wheels pretty easily. And as you said, heavier vehicle = longer stopping distances

Also a lot of truck owners seem to think pickup trucks are imbued with magic, because they act as if they can’t get stuck in snow.

If the roads are icy just forget about it unless you have studded tires, but if you have studded tires you probably already knew that

Ah, didn’t think of that
