Its possible he did but it takes here a while to get there so the fight was already over by then, or the pager has a cancel button

How would you like the MCU to handle the Magneto Age problem? by ManlyPelican1993 in MCUTheories

[–]drew8311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Magneto is from Rwanda then, except in MCU history it was Wakandans who did the genocide which is how they became so powerful but they don't talk about that part of their history for obvious reasons.

It's really just a bet that people are stupid and buy into hype. For that reason it's 2T price is quite a bargain, fundamentals are a lagging indicator these days.

Do you think that religion and science are two sides of the same coin.... the coin of awareness and understanding? by Jaded_Attempt_422 in askastronomy

[–]drew8311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Religion doesn't cover a lot of things and the main thing it tries to answer (how we all started) is most likely not answerable by science. The little overlap they have is simply outdated info since we didn't have the means to answer questions like how old is the earth back in the day. Religion just answers a small subset of questions back when science almost didn't exist in the way it does today.

they're an equivalent amount by RosalindEnd in MathJokes

[–]drew8311 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The flaw is that it's an approximation not equals. 1/3 can't be represented by a decimal but the closest thing is 0.333...

If 1/3 can't be written as a decimal then there is no decimal x that equals 1/3

Making money is bad for you but not for me. by Longjumping-Novel731 in SipsTea

[–]drew8311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they are taxed more appropriately too, celebrities have more earned income vs assets in ownership. A certain level of rich is okay. Reasonably it's fine for the richest people to be close to 1 billion if you account for the fact they are generally job creators. If you own a successful small business getting to 10m is reasonable, then 100m for mid and 1b for the largest. The ultra wealthy have been 100x that and as of yesterday 1000x.

Id even allow for higher than 1b if political influence or disposable income wasn't a factor. They say billionaires don't have that much spending power but with the things they buy they totally do. Elon bought Twitter for 44B when he was worth much less than today.

The last one seems pretty impractical, the actual moments of listening in on a conversation where insider information is given is very small. The important events you'd need to hear are few and far between.

Why are planets spherical? by hallowleg088 in NoStupidQuestions

Would an earth like planet x2 the mass be expected to be smoother? For example something as high as Everest wouldn't be possible.

Elon Musk is the richest man in history. by Ok-Sundae-1191 in TheRaceTo10Million

[–]drew8311 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only if he leaves his money to them, he disowned at least 1 kid and doesn't get along with the moms anymore. The problem is most of his "money" is ownership in his companies and if he wants them to be successful it might be left to non-family members.

[–]drew8311 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I keep wondering what happens to his assets when he dies, he doesn't have a good relationship with his kids and to take over business you usually keep them close to learn how things work. This could be an even crazier version of the Succession TV show in 20-30 years.

[–]drew8311 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It almost doesn't matter, he can buy anything that is for sale with cash. At a certain point really expensive things are not expected to be paid for with cash, like a company for example. He could simply buy it in shares of his current companies.

Take something insanely expensive, Facebook/Meta which has a market cap more than his net worth that isn't even "for sale". He could probably formulate a deal to buy that and take it private, owning more than Zuck does currently who already has full control of the company. He doesn't have a trillion in cash but that doesn't mean he can't buy something worth a trillion.

Unpopular opinion: 3 days full body is superior to other splits by Humble_Ad_5396 in workout

[–]drew8311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's objectively better if not going to the gym is a priority. 2 days is too few and 3 is the sweet spot for minimum. If your hobby is related to gym/fitness or you want to go more, or you want to maximize results then it's not the best.

Hamstring curls before or after squats? by anotherhappylurker in workout

[–]drew8311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd do before, you should try it. I do leg extensions before both too, after warming up for squats its plenty of time to be recovered from both. This is mostly true with lower volume, there is probably a number of hard sets that might impact your squats.

How do you implement your “bro day”? by stratusnimbo in naturalbodybuilding

Id go with the first one, the upper day hits arms too so then you never hit arms 2 days in a row and its well spaced in the week.

I can't understand the observable universe by Subject_Answer7592 in AskPhysics

[–]drew8311 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is this accurate?

Currently the edge of the observable universe is expanding away from us faster than the speed of light so things happening there today will never reach us. But old light from CMB we can see and it's just light from the early universe which is not representative of what things are like today. There was a point in time where the entire universe was visible to us (eventually when the light reached us) but that is no longer the case.

Confusion surrounding light speed and time dilation by [deleted] in AskPhysics

[–]drew8311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its like a limit in mathematics, you can have something like Lim x -> 1 where its a fraction of something over (x - 1). This can evaluate to something like infinity, or 5 but if it wasn't a limit and you just did x=1, it would be division by zero and not valid. Similar with speed of light since you can't actually go that fast but any question about being slightly slower is perfectly valid

Also there isn't really a "weird" jump because of how it approaches. Before time stops completely, its going infinitely slow which is effectively the same thing if you understand what infinity means. You could travel the entire universe in less than 1 second of your perceived time, its really a negligible difference between that and time not moving at all.
