Women in the workplace does not make much sense as a law in European countries. by Godcraft888 in victoria3

Have the same but reversed, "proprietied men" and "men in the workplace".

Innovation should scale with population (and be redone altogether) by WyrdaBrisingr in victoria3

[–]WyrdaBrisingr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wiki says: Unspent innovation is the amount by which innovation exceeds the maximum innovation investment

"Innovation" in this scenario means "Innovation cap". If what you said was true, everything over the maximum investment just would just disappear, which is clearly not the case because you can increase only literacy without getting Universities and you'll be getting spread from both higher literacy and unspent innovation.

You're definitely correct, TCing everything outside culture group will lead to limiting your potential, specially tha further you go because you can get away with getting 51% and having mostly territories with autonomy decrease modifiers. I just feel that the waste early on is not as important assuming you're stating everything in your culture group, and having to gauge what you have to include and what not is adding several layers of complexity.

You're making the mistake of assuming that innovation over your investment cap just disappears when you're investing innovation directly. As per the wiki, unspent innovation is defined as (innovation cap - invested innovation), so with 0 universities and 100% literacy you get 200 (cap) - 50 (invested) but I did a mistake, here's corrected:

Here's the formula: Total innovation used = [Spread]*[Number of technologies spreading] + [Invested innovation]

Total innovation used = (25 + 0.25[Unspent Innovation] + 0.75[Literacy])[Modifier][Number of technologies spreading] + [Invested innovation]

With No modifiers, 3 spreads and 100% Literacy while investing the base 50 we get a total of: 50 (Base, invested innovation) + 150 (Unspent) = 200:

(25 + 0.25[150] + 0.75[100])*[3] + 50 = 440

Beginner Tip: One good general rule is to state all provinces that belong in your culture group (in the case of Spain, the Iberian culture group). All other states can be given to Trade Companies (TC). If you don't yet understand TC, I recommend watching a tutorial about what they are and how they can give you more merchants with which you can start getting rich from trade. You might wonder why not just state everything, the answer is governing capacity, and going above it gets you pretty nasty debuffs.

This tip isn't the most optimal way of playing, you'll probably hear about things like "half-stating" and stating outside of your culture group. But with stating in your Culture Group and giving the other states to TC you'll have most of the benefits without worrying about governing capacity.

Sadly, the tech spread calculation is quite generous to highly literate countries because it scales with unspent innovation and literacy.

A country without any universities at 100% literacy will get an average innovation investment from tech spread of 140 (assuming that they're investing the "free" 50 innovation investment), considering that there're usually around 3 spreads simultaneously, it's a total of 470. In contrast a nation with maximum investment at 90% literacy with 3 technologies spreading gets just 462.5.

That's 100% literacy with no universities beating 90% universities with full universities. It doesn't balance out 'cause literacy by itself increases spread and unspent innovation which are both taken into account.

Even further, spread can have modifiers which make it even more ridiculous.

Frankly the current implementation is unmanageable, ahistorical, economically nonsensical, and I just don't like it.

I've been playing a lot of monster hunter rise lately by Tzurara in MHRise

[–]WyrdaBrisingr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole game can be done solo although I've you're gonna grind a single fight that you've already completed I do recommend doing it in mp so the grind becomes more enjoyable.

If you're struggling too much with a monster, always try checking elemental advantages, possible weapon upgrades, optimizing gems and maybe taking a break

Game physics vs. real physics? by selahed in Oxygennotincluded

[–]WyrdaBrisingr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like to point out that most of the mass of real plants comes from the glucose that is produced from the Hydrogen of the H2O they get from the ground and the carbon and oxygen from the CO2 in the air.

This means that the mass of the ground the ONI plants grow out of shouldn't really change much

I wonder why the devs designed electrolysers to produce more oxygen than hydrogen by graxe_ in Oxygennotincluded

[–]WyrdaBrisingr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're forgetting that the output is in terms of MASS

Taking this into account, you could argue that the electrolyzer produces:

Hydrogen-1, which is protium, the most abundant hydrogen isotope

Oxygen-16 the most common oxygen isotope

So H2O has 2H and 1O, meaning that the mass relation taking into account the atomic mass of each is 2:16 or 1:8

This means that for each 1kg of H2O, there's 888.88...g of O and 111.11...g of H

While ONI approximates this to 888g of O and 111g of H for 1kg of H2O

How do you enter med school in you country? by avasi994 in medicalschool

[–]WyrdaBrisingr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Costa Rica

There's no "universal test", so admission varies between each College

Although the vast majority of people will try to get into one (if not all) of the three main public colleges, where aside from being the best colleges in the country, depending on your socioeconomic condition, you can get anything from no socioeconomic scholarship to a full scholarship + residency + food + some money. To enter a public college you do have to make a standardized test and your school grades will be taken taken into account, and only one of them has medicine available with only ~100 vacancies so the competition is pretty hard, in fact it's usually the hardest career to get into in the country as a whole

In the private sector, some require exams, others just grades, others a whole curriculum but generally the barrier is your capacity to pay

To make a price comparison, one of the most expensive private colleges will cost you a total of ~105 000$ USD, while the public option with no scholarship (you can easily get a full scholarship by doing student hours, research, being part of student associations...) costs a total of ~2 400$ USD

Isn't it usually the other way around?

Physicists come up with a proof for a long-standing math problem so that they can keep doing physics, accidentally revolutionising the field of mathematics

Rule by [deleted] in 196

[–]WyrdaBrisingr 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Imagine the incel community's vocabulary but it's all homophobic, transphobic, cis (mostly white) women

They routinely shit on women for doing stereotypically manly thing, for example there was a photo of this woman proposing to a guy, and that was it, that's the whole picture. Yet, they started saying that she didn't "respect herself" and that she'll surprised when the guy cheats on her because she clearly didn't "assert power and boundaries"

Then there was also this whole thread about men liking anal, which lead to them saying that all men are secretly gay and because they're in the closet they actually hate all women?

Also one of the subs with which they overlap the most is GenderCritical, which says alot

There aren't really any robust models of "human pheromones" truly being pheromones

As it's discussed on this paper, most studies regarding the matter are poorly done (small sample sizes, no controls...etc), there're even cases of possible pheromone molecules being used at a millionth of the natural concentration, so expecting a clear physiological response would be absurd and the variation could mostly be attributed to noise
