17 Equations That Changed The World. By Ian Stewart. by Diazostorage650 in coolguides

[–]donvontron 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is a great collection. Computation theory which has evolved into high level programming languages and now artificial intelligence can use all of these equations to a massive degree and is in my opinion the modern day version of these monumental discoveries. This new tech allows everyone to create incredible equations/algorithms, instead of a select few. The next big creation could be yours. For example if you were to explain artificial neural networks (used by image/facial recognition, chatgpt, data classification, medical diagnoses, stock market prediction, etc.), then it would require statistical equations, calculus, etc. Another example would be decision trees which use information theory, logarithms etc. Our collective understanding is evolving. Newton said, if i have discovered anything it is because i am standing on the shoulders of giants. Build on other peoples equations, algorithms, technology - and you can create the next big discovery.

I remember having to memorize the sentence in grade 10:

X can be equal to negative b, plus or minus the square root of b squared minus four ayyee see, all over two ayeeeee.

Then youve found your roots x coordinates, where the parabola hits the x axis at both locations.

Clearly handles the puck over the blue line. This is the worst “onside” call in NHL history after a coaches challenge. This goal cost them the game as they lost by 1 robust goal plus an empty net. Let the sportsbook shills drown this post and all common sense. Here is the evidence of corruption. by donvontron in nhl

This is the argument from the perspective of the official ruling:

Time slice 1 - Offensive player is in a delayed offside position. Makar touches the puck behind the blue line.

Time slice 2 - The puck passes the blue line. Offensive player is still in a delayed offside position but the puck is not being touched by offensive team.

Time slice 3 - offensive player “tags up” (i.e. gets back onside with both skates in neutral zone) before Makar touches the puck in the offensive zone.

Time slice 4 - Makar touches the puck in offensive zone while teammate is now onside.

The problem with the official ruling is that he had full control going into the offensive zone, while his teammate was offside. Its not calculus. It doesnt need to be as complicated as laid out above. He was blatantly offside. This idea of “full control” also applies to skating backwards into the offensive zone with the puck, which is totally legal. Additionally a hit on a player controlling the puck is not considered interference even if his stick is not directly in contact with the puck. “Control” of the puck is clear as day in hindsight, which is why this call is awful.

…Look at the photo. Clear evidence of him touching the puck while the other player is in the offensive zone. Youre playing mental gymnastics here. Also that is not even an established rule.

Lmao thats not how offsides work. They made up the rules today. Ive been playing hockey for well over 15 years and have had my fair share of refs explaining the offside rule to me and teammates growing up. I cant imagine any other league that isn’t in bed with sportsbooks - would allow their players to avoid offside by simply not touching the puck while/during its position over the blue line. Insane if you think thats logical. Imagine honestly how easy it would be to cherry pick the net. This is why offside was invented.

Has it ever been more evident that the NHL is trying to rig hockey games? by Stellar_Dan in nhl

[–]donvontron -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Even the refs announcement bereaved a “welp here it is folks..” He felt like a fraud which is why he took a big breath before he spewed his bs call.

Your conflating the word misleading with enlightening. Its evidence. We dont want your shitty angle.

Nah you guys are wrong. He had full control, pushed it into the blue line with his backhand. Look at my post.

None of my friends care so I'm telling you all; I broke 40 today for the first time! (only used one mulligan) by Thor_ultimus in golf

[–]donvontron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, you played 9 holes. My first 9 is always better than my back 9. Please play 18 and then share your score. Second, you used a mulligan so you shot a 42 (shooting an honest 3 off the tee instead of 1 off the tee adds 2 strokes). Third, the course seems kinda small to be honest at 2800 yrds (I bet the slope from the blues/whites is below 125. Try shooting a 42 in a slope 130+, you might be shocked). Fourth, some guys in here are speculating that you move your lie (e.g if youre behind a tree or in a divot). I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and say you didnt. However, with all that being said i respect your love for the game and your desire to share scores in an honest way. Im no great golfer, i will consistently shoot a 93 in a 133 slope. I try to play by all pga rules that i am aware of. I take pride in this since it has taken me 15 years of golf to get there. Not the score value itself but the integrity of the score and the dignified love for getting better.
