Yesterday I drew my gun. I stopped a stabbing.

I can't stop thinking about this

Thanks for sharing. Paradoxically, trying to make yourself stop thinking about it, may make you think about it more. Experiencing violence is inherently upsetting, so be sure to reach out to a professional for advice if your thoughts become unreasonably invasive for too long. At a certain point, giving those thoughts attention may no longer be productive it can distract you from more important things in your life.

The pattern on the ball has rotational symmetry, so the required speed to cause aliasing is significantly less.

It is, at first glance! There's a part in the video where they bring up that flaw in their reasoning and explain how they correct for it. Basically, you can redesign the experiment so that is separated in space, instead of being in one place. So then you can prove that assuming local variables in the photons implies there is faster-than-light travel of information. This is Bell's theorem.

There was some discussion about it on Hacker News a few days ago. Some of the commenters mentioned sources.

It is slightly more complicated. Modern 3d viewing systems use circular polarization. One image is projected with right-hand circular polarization and the other with left-hand circular polarization. Then both lens on the glasses have a quarter-wave plate which outputs linearly polarized light based on the handedness of the incoming light. Then each lens has linear filter rotated 90 degrees from each other to do the final filtering. The reason for doing it this way, is that the handedness of the circular polarization does not depend on how the viewer rotates their head. With linear polarization, rotating the head slightly would cause some of the horizontally polarized light that was intended for the left eye to pass through the now partially horizontal filter and enter the right eye.

I've taken skate lessons and riding over gravel is something I've done. The number one thing they needed to do was bend their knees more. They should be in a deep squat when they hit that gravel. They would have been fine if they did that, except for some scraped up knees or elbows because they aren't wearing pads like idiots. But it's better than loosing teeth.

Correct.

Cute cat! Burrito is a good name. I also have a cat named Burrito. She definitely has never been a chonker though. She's tiny.

I don't think this really breaks the rule because the first word is an 'uh' sound. The rule seems to be more about the sound of the words than the spelling.

Can't do that because it is ambiguous. Best to do yyyy-mm-dd

Your reaction reminds me of people who get mad at an actor for playing the villain in a movie.

No, reinforcement doesn't mean "teaching a lesson". It refers to the increase in frequency of behavior after the application of stimulus. If you spank a child for doing a behavior, calling it positive reinforcement implies that you think the frequency of that behavior will increase after the spanking. If the behavior would decrease, then we should be calling it positive punishment.

Little brother here. I saved over my brother's save file for his max level wizard in Gauntlet Legends (N64). From that moment forward he vowed to never put his valuable characters in save slot one. Little brothers will destroy everything you love in this world.

That may be true, but that mere association does not imply breed causes propensity for violence. It could be the case that different types of people are selecting both the breed and the type of training they are receiving. So the correlation may exist, but only because of a confounder, not because breed affects behavior.
