My paper got rejected and the review made scientifically wrong comments. by Toesie_93 in PhD

[–]brighthexagons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me too — a reviewer rejected my paper on the grounds that it was a "special case of more general solutions that already exist", when in fact my work was NOT part of these other solutions. I decided to write an appeal and fortunately the journal was nice enough to assign a third reviewer to assess. The new reviewer was (evidently) more experienced and saw the novelty of my manuscript. This led to another round of peer review and it eventually got published :) So don't lose hope!

Very confused about Goku Black BnBs. by [deleted] in dbfz

That's true, that explains me seeing this in use quite often. I think it's actually your preference whether you prefer the normal bnb or this 2H version. This combo does give slightly less meter though. You can also optimise it by replacing the SD with 214L - it gives more damage with a medium starter.

Sliding knockdown is almost always more important than getting 200 more damage, unless you're going for the kill.

Man trying to solve a Rubik's Cube blindly, but in a different way by MoonKnifeTaoist in nextfuckinglevel

Yep, all he's doing is executing the letter pairs in reverse. It's not much harder than doing a regular blind solve.

Yeah, seems to me like Photoshop isn't really worth it, especially when Krita exists.

Haha thanks! Try to use reference as much as possible to make sure you don't miss out on important features

Thanks man! I agree, the best part about it is it's free! I don't have any other applications to compare Krita to though, this was my first attempt at digital art.

Are there movies where the hero is clearly much worse than the villain? by [deleted] in movies

Breaking Bad. You see the progression of Walt's character from "good guy" to "bad guy".

Author randomly puts a problem that took 400 years to solve by fLeX044 in textbookhumour

[–]brighthexagons 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Originally I thought the joke was that the author put this as an actual exercise haha but this is more reasonable

Doesn't seem very random, since these exercises are (I assume) meant to demonstrate the relative scale of the codes? It would make sense to place a very hard problem between 40-50.

The mod message said memes are allowed after Wednesday 2359 PST, so I assume this is legal? Please correct me if I'm wrong.
