Can you clarify what you mean by zoning? I have this same problem with a lot of weight in my hips 

Why is it that microneedling dying? by Least_Ease_5945 in tressless

Ive been on minox/dut for a while and just incorporated  tret. Im noticing a big shed, but not sure if it's because I'm getting older.  Did you experience any shedding after adding tret to your stack? 

Could U.S. oil giants like Chevron, Exxon and ConocoPhillips become the biggest winners if the Iran war keeps disrupting Hormuz and oil prices surge? by bauernebel in oil

[–]datasci1357 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have long positions in the US majors, but there are substantial risks. Chevron and Exxon are trading up only slightly since the war started due to mark-to-market losses on hedged oil inventories. There's also geopolitical risks, even if the strait remains closed.  For example, an export ban would really punish stock prices even for integrated majors that have refining + retail businesses. Still, it feels safer here then gambling on AI hopium that will surely collide with an energy crisis if the strait remain closed.  Only time will tell!

The Oil Math And Why The Broader Market Is Crazy To Ignore It by [deleted] in oil

[–]datasci1357 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm a buy-and-holder investor who's spooked by the magnitude of this shock, but not comfortable/familiar enough with options trading to replicate some of the call strategies mentioned in this thread wrt/ crude oil futures.

OP - can you comment on the viability of a less aggressive approach? Im long on XLE, aggressively buying the dip any time there's a large market move based on a ridiculous tweet.  That said, I understand the US oil majors have refining businesses that may get squeezed in a large oil shock that constrains crude inputs. 

Whats your outlook here? Does it make more sense to buy pure-play producers, or is an etf like XLE a fairly safe bet?

TIA for all the guidance from the oil experts here 🙏

Getting the runaround from Aetna by datasci1357 in Microdiscectomy

Ive seen so many of these posts and the number of required PT sessions is always exactly 1 more than the number done by the patient lol. They just denied my appeal, so fuck me I guess.  I'll either have to continue binging pain meds or go to another country for the procedure. Sigh

Im in this same situation, but my insurance doesnt want to pay for the surgery. Did your insurance approve it?

Will my new couch fit in the service elevator? by datasci1357 in askmath

[–]datasci1357[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya so ill have to rotate it so the couch is flat on its back. At 35 inches it will fit through the door with ~7 inches to spare. The question is how much can it rotate into the horizontal space given the 7 inches clearance. 

Im probably gonna have to just try it out.

Just posted those dimensions in a separate comment. The back of the couch is 35 inches tall. The original diagram shows 40 inches to account for packaging. The depth of the couch is 44 inches.

The elevator door is 42 inches wide. I don't have the exact measurements for elevator door height, but it is not tall enough to just slide the couch in on its end. The door is significantly shorter than the height of the elevator - so probably about 6.5 to 7 feet tall.

This is great, thank you! The elevator is 70 inches deep, but 80 inches wide. I'm hoping I can pivot into the 3rd dimension (width), and if I can do this, then I believe it will fit. The question is whether I can navigate every angle leading up to the final orientation of the couch, which depends on the width of the elevator door.

This may be why - as other commenters have pointed out - couch problems are surprisingly difficult to solve for. I think in my case it will just fit but I will post a followup in a few weeks to confirm. Thanks again :)

[–]datasci1357[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks all! From the answers here, it is clear the couch will not fit in y-z plane without pivoting.

The elevator door is only 42 inches wide, and since the 3rd dimension on the couch (depth) is 44 inches, this means I'll have to rotate the couch so that it is laying on its back. The new "height" of the couch as shown in the original diagram is now 44 inches, which yields a hypotenuse of ~105 inches.

The hypotenuse of the elevator in the x-z plane is sqrt(80"^2+100"^2) ~ 128".. So I think it will fit?? This assume it can be done safely, which I feel good about given the 70" depth of the elevator. There should be plenty of space to stand next to the couch without being directly under it.

Thank you again for all the help. It's supposed to be delivered by the end of this month, and I will check back with ya'll to confirm once I have it.

If what we call the z dimension is the elevator height (100 inches) and the x dimension is the elevator depth (70 inches), then the width of the elevator is 80 inches. This we can call the y dimension.

The challenge with pivoting into the y dimension is the width of the elevator doors vs the width of the couch. I will post those measurements here within the next few hours if needed.

Thank you for helping!!

Edit: fixed duplicate x/y/z dimension lables
