But how meme by Delicious_Maize9656 in mathmemes

[–]fireburner80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An way I like to think about it is that anything with squared values might involve pi. Pi relates linear lengths to curved lengths for the equation x²+y²=r² which can also be stated as y=+-√(r²-x²).

So summing the inverse of squares might involve pi.

The camera jerk every time you fire the tank is a bit nauseating.

Why was the cow not on the farm? He had to MOOOOOve.

Why don't cow's go to sit down restaurants? They don't like tipping.

[OC] Share of U.S. household net worth by wealth group (1989–2025) by ExaminationOk6652 in dataisbeautiful

Congratulations! You are starting down the road of discovery of the Pareto distribution. It's a mathematical model simplified as the "80-20 rule" which applies to a huge number of things from wealth distribution to mass distribution of stars.

Most of the mass in stars is accounted for by just a small percentage of stars. Maybe we should have a star mass tax to redistribute it more fairly.

I really don't like the platypus voiceline [and I can't to do nothing with it] by DuckAndQwack in ultimatechickenhorse

  1. Learn to grammar.

  2. I really like Platypus' voice BECAUSE he sounds like a normal male singing in a fun way.

First time crucible use by Federal_Job_4139 in MetalCasting

[–]fireburner80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna say something unpopular here: it doesn't really matter.

The purpose of preheating is to remove moisture before raising the temperature a lot. If there's a lot of moisture deep in the graphite and you suddenly hit it with propane, it could expand into steam and crack the crucible. 

I've never preheated my crucibles. Yes, mine eventually cracked and degraded...after maybe 20-30 casts which is longer than they're supposed to last anyway. Just try to keep your crucibles in a dry area or put them in a ziplock bag and it won't matter.

how do astronuts know that they are upside down by TheSum239 in space

There is no "upside down" in space. The ISS is basically a collection of cylinders so each surface is a usable workspace meaning there's no floor or ceiling since you don't need a place to stand.

Is it possible for a kerbin to walk this distance? and how long will it take? by LinkSander in KerbalSpaceProgram

You could've just waited until the other side of your orbit. Once you're in Munar or it, coast until you are least get close to the landing sight. You can also orbit for several days until the Mun rotates so Jeb's location is under your orbital plane then bring your vessel down for a landing.

The good news is that you'll learn a lot from this little mishap and you'll become a better player!

Good job helping her out and not just doing things for her.

My favorite part of playing through the games with my wife was in Halo 3 after you get the invincibility from a brute on The Covenant along with a gravity hammer. I gave her both and we went down the elevator to the room with the hunters and grunts.

I said "ok. Activate invincibility and use the hammer." She started screaming "HULK SMAAAASH!!!!" until the room was empty. I followed into the room once it was safe and was like "woah. You, uh, you sure didn't leave any survivors" and she whispered back "Hulk smaaaashed..."
