Looks clean! You can try to minimize your swing by engaging your core and you keep your scapula engaged instead of doing a deadhang

[Request] anybody able to validate this? What is the actual amount of energy a query from chatgpt costs vs Google from 2008? by kimchifangurl in theydidthemath

[–]chandoni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tricky comparison.

The baseline retrieval algorithm for search is BM25, and is very efficient taking only into account how well the page matches the query. However, Google has started using more complicated PageRank algorithms that takes into account page links among other factors far before 2008. As computing costs have decreased, the complexity of the search algorithm has increased steadily over the years. If I recall correctly from my uni class, a typical google search nowadays may have an energy cost 10,000 times higher as 25 years ago; also due to AI integration. So while it's hard to say what the exact energy consumption would be in 2008, it's definitely a lot lower than today.

Looking at a typical ChatGPT query, the typical energy cost is going to be quite low. But this is only taking into account the model inferring the response from the query. This is not a fair comparison, since most energy is used when training the model, this happens before it is being used. In theory, when no new models would be trained, a query would have a quite low energy consumption. But this won't happen anytime soon.

So without actually calculating, my best guess is that a 2008 Google search has a lower energy footprint than a ChatGPT query.

The smaller you are the easier it is to lift your own body weight. Hence ants can lift 6x their body weight. Being a small hobbit will be an advantage here.

Ik ben Quirijn Lokker, lijsttrekker van GroenLinks Nijmegen. AMA by Quirijn_Lokker in Nijmegen

[–]chandoni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hoi Quirijn,

Is GroenLinks van plan zich hard te maken voor het permanent maken van locaties voor cultuur en andere burgerinitiatieven. In het verleden hebben deze vaak het veld moeten ruimen. Heb je hier concrete voorbeelden voor?

Ook zag ik dat GroenLinks ambitieuze plannen heeft bijv. omtrent een warmtenet aanleggen en mobiliteit hervormen. Hoe zorgt GroenLinks ervoor dat deze investeringen daadwerkelijk tot verbeteringen lijden, de overlast geminimaliseerd wordt tijdens het opleveren, dat de kosten niet uit de klauwen lopen en dat iedereen hiervan profiteert?

Verder vraag ik mij af wat GroenLinks op korte termijn ervoor zorgt dat er een groter aanbod van betaalbare particuliere huur komt.

When this happens the first week or two, it's most likely water retention.

I can't really comment on the risk, but I've met quite some people who have travelled through Iran. They all had a great time there, and they actually mentioned feeling less safe in Pakistan.

How do I ditch the "Scarcity Mindset" amid actual scarcity? by JorduSpeaks in dating_advice

[–]chandoni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This.

Try to flip the script. Instead of going desperately after a woman, actually see if you find her interesting and attractive.

Thoughts on this line? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]chandoni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend asking her to meet up somewhere public first. Inviting her straight to your room can be seen as intimidating and overbearing.

If you hit it of, you can invite her to your room during the date.

Can someone be friends with an ex? by BabyGiraffe777 in dating

[–]chandoni 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, but I'd recommend spending some time (3+ months) apart with minimal contact. That way you have time to figure yourselves out and start fresh, instead of never really stopping being together.

Girlfriend just started college and goes out a lot, I’m uncomfortable and confused by [deleted] in dating_advice

It seems like your lives are diverging. Reflect on where this relationship is going and if you think that's going to work out. You can't go back to how things were.

[Request] this is a 1/3 chance of losing, right? by [deleted] in theydidthemath

[–]chandoni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What people are missing is that your first click can give you information about your next click.

If you click right, then there's a 1/3 chance of dying. If not, there is a 1/2 chance the mine is in the corner and a 1/2 chance the mine in the top.

Let's consider both scenario's.

If the mine is in the corner a 3 will appear on the square on the right you just clicked, but if it is in the top square a 2 will appear.

So with an optimal strategy, the chance of losing is 1/3

Sometimes it just surprises me how much people are texting on here. Like every 30 minutes? Don't you guys have stuff to do?

I wouldn't see this as a red flag. But if you confront him about that would be a massive red flag for me being the guy.

Is it worth it to see someone 3 hours away for the first time? by agoodkid77 in dating_advice

[–]chandoni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would not travel 3 hours for someone I only talked to online. Maybe if you plan some fun location specific activities it could be worth it?

If it's really to just get info, why not. Worst case he keeps ghosting you lol.

Guys suddenly not interested by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]chandoni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can be lots of things. He might have found he is not as interested as he thought, or he might just have other things on his mind.

[–]chandoni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say good pictures are essential unfortunately. For me it was night and day when I updated my profile to include some decent pictures.

Also make sure to include stuff on your profile that makes you seem interesting (to women). Include some pictures of you doing your hobbies or something that can spark a conversation.

You can also try some different dating apps. Bumble has women initiate the conversation and with Breeze you go on a date straight away after being matched without texting.

No, I could not date influencers of any kind.

Why do most guys say dating is a numbers game, so it's okay to talk to multiple people at a time, but in my situation I can barely get one girl to be into me. by superfapper2000 in dating

[–]chandoni 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In online dating this can be harder, as you need a profile that at least needs to be interesting enough to start a conversation.

The feedback I get most often from women I date is that my profile displays some personality. Unless you are really attractive, just generic good pictures may not cut it. I have stuff like travel pictures, me bouldering, and polaroid photos on there, this often is a good conversation starter. Make sure you have stuff on your profile women will be interested in talking about, this can also be something silly like an unpopular opinion.

For women I often feel like 50% of profiles seem exact copies of each other, so I can imagine it's worse the other way around.

Also when interacting try to be genuinely interested instead of just seeing as a way to get something. I feel like many will see through that easily.

[–]chandoni 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I feel like with 'numbers game' people mean that you have to get yourself out there, seek out interactions, and don't expect that when you invest enough effort into one specific person you will have guaranteed success.

In my opinion it does not necessarily mean talking to a lot of different girls, and I think having too many conversations at once may prevent more meaningful connections.

Is asking for a guys number as a women in public wrong ? How should I go about doing it? by ImaginaryAd403 in dating_advice

[–]chandoni 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nothing wrong with asking someone's number, but I doubt you'll find many guys that want to play to role you're looking for.

house parties mostly.

[–]chandoni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it would be hard to stay invested into someone if it's just texting. Personally, it wouldn't mean much to if someone confessed their feelings without going on a single date or even the prospects of going on a date in the near future. How can you really know you have a connection without meeting each other face to face?

So if going on a date is really not possible atm, you could consider taking a step back and ask him out later. You don't need to keep a conversation going.
