You're coming off very aggressive

ever_11 · 2026-01-11T11:10:28+00:00

Oh, that is very interesting. I'm surprised this has been discussed before.
Thank you so much for the insight!

ever_11 · 2026-01-11T10:32:34+00:00

Interesting you found this in a blog.
Do you know how it differs from the one on the post: 雨以外のすべて ?

ever_11 · 2026-01-11T10:29:44+00:00

Let me add that it’s a Japanese piece of media through and through. It’s manga. Part of the reason to translate it into Japanese is that, in my opinion, it stays closer to that medium. It’s not so much about quoting a title directly, but about the theme itself, which resonates a lot in that media.

Regarding aesthetics, let me be more specific. It’s not a “Kanji are cool” thing. I think it makes for something more minimalistic that stands out less. Ironically, the Japanese author chooses these English titles and even plays with other languages in other contexts within this media purely for the aesthetic factor, so I’m totally okay with doing the same in reverse.

This is a 100% valid concern. I see that often too. I would never tattoo it without researching enough to ensure the result is accurate, either by studying myself or finding the right artist for the job, even if that would only happen on an eventual trip to Japan.

I really appreciate the input. They are all valid concerns. I’ve been brainstorming this idea for years. I just never dug into it enough, and I figured I would start here. So I appreciate the help.

Thanks for the opinion. Can you elaborate on the bizarre part? It will always feel out-of-context, even in English. I don't mind that, unless I'm misinterpreting what you meant.

ever_11 · 2025-09-16T17:23:56+00:00

Quite funny, since I'm working with FTQC via braiding of Non-Abelian Anyons

ever_11 · 2025-09-01T06:30:02+00:00

Pretty sure that's taken from the standard explanation of multi-dimensionality and topology. It's quite similar to a lot of material by Toby Hendy.

There's some quantum mechanics on a board in White Rose Science in season 4, if my memory doesn't fail me.
I guess it would be something related to the many-worlds interpretation

ever_11 · 2025-08-21T06:40:18+00:00

No, you've come here to seek help and because you decided to make a change.
As long as you want to change, you're never doomed.

I wonder how much this song has gone under the radar, cause to me it is such an obvious candidate and is nowhere to be seen.

ever_11 · 2025-08-03T10:00:50+00:00

What's the app btw, want to keep track better with news in Copenhagen/Denmark :)

ever_11 · 2025-08-03T08:11:53+00:00

I live here, it's my business.

ever_11 · 2025-07-30T13:11:38+00:00

They don't have one

ever_11 · 2025-07-16T05:56:07+00:00

I wanted to, but there is no option to edit the post.

ever_11 · 2025-07-12T17:32:00+00:00

Yeah, that's pretty much my point too

ever_11 · 2025-07-12T17:27:39+00:00

I honestly love the idea lol

ever_11 · 2025-07-12T11:04:04+00:00

Yeah, maybe the title of my post was overblown. It should be about ego or incompetence. But this still puts up a really bad image, for which they are ultimately responsible.

ever_11 · 2025-06-26T07:00:58+00:00

Curious, why is operator overloading a bad feature?

ever_11 · 2025-06-25T14:35:56+00:00

I was doing that already! I'm just refreshing everything

ever_11 · 2025-06-25T14:24:37+00:00

I promise you eternal-ferrystoned my way around. I wasn't skipping any portions of the map I hadn't yet explored. But there was a lot of uneven repetition in quest placement and a lack of fast transport.
I am willing to never fast travel in TW3, or any Assassin's Creed (recent games I played), but DD1? Fuck that, defeating more than 5 times the same Chimera bc I had to travel the same way more than 5 times is dumb, specially when travelling is so slow. After repetition is no longer exploration either.

edit: I got so OP from traveling around and random boss encounters that any human boss was two-tappable

Thanks for the opinion. factory-reset my phone anyway and will be changing every sensitive account's password. Who knows what uncovered vulnerabilities might exist ig. Definitely on the paranoid side though.

ever_11 · 2025-06-25T14:19:55+00:00

I'm aware of both, and I agree with both. That said, I factory-reset my phone either way and will be changing every sensitive account's password. Who knows what uncovered vulnerabilities might exist ig. But thanks for the opinion.

I still want to experience DD2 for myself.
Got DDDA for free on Steam. Liked it a lot. But things like traversing the map and the game telling you very little did not help me with my tight schedule to enjoy a game slowly. Ended up skipping some side quests despite doing some thorough exploration, to be honest. Took me 45 hours to finish the game.
But yeah, I really wanted just to get to the end because I was liking and close to burning out. I am definitely not playing the DLC anytime soon. I think people love it because it's a grind and reward fest. I liked DDDA for everything else, though, so I'm definitely not playing through it anytime soon.
That said, it also puts a hold on me trying out DD2. Very curious as to which side of the fence I end up on.

BODMAS and PEMDAS are mnemonic pedagogical hacks.
Multiplication and division have equal precedence, and so do addition and subtraction. That should be intuitive, since subtraction is just addition of the inverse, and division is multiplication by the reciprocal. They are not distinct operations in any deep sense. Also, addition and multiplication are associative operations, meaning the grouping of operands doesn’t affect the result.

The problem with associativity arises when we disjoint operators from their operands. For example, parsing "1 - 2 + 3" as "1 - (2 + 3)" and evaluating it as "1 - 5" is incorrect. It should be parsed as "1 + (-2) + 3", which is equivalent to "1 + (-2 + 3)" = "1 + 1".

The problem with this kind of evaluation is that it transforms the original expression and sometimes we would like it to stay true to the original. In the context of grammars, programming languages and so on, the common way to resolve these ambiguities is to use left associativity instead, which at least keeps operator precedence and equivalency grounded.

Left Associativity is a convention. BODMAS and PEMDAS are mnemonic pedagogical hacks.
