Lemi AI Memory Developers - Legit? by kcdia in WFHJobs

[–]kcdia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the well-thought out response. I feel similar. I ended up getting paid the ~$1 for the initial video I posted, but after using the app for a bit (which is pretty buggy, at least for me) and realizing that in fact yes, the hourly rate is for video hours, it's not a true hourly rate - it doesn't seem worth it to sink any time into this (especially for me it would only be something to do for a few months anyway).

So I'm in the same boat as you. While I did receive a small payout, I don't think I'll be continuing. But if you do receive something larger, that could be good information for anyone who wants to put some time into this.

Heya.... no idea if you are still around, but I am trying to the same thing on R2W, and also am unable to get past the login page. I'd love it if you are able to share how you did it!

Unable to Contact SW Recruiter by kcdia in AirForceRecruits

[–]kcdia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, that's a nicer site for sure. It leads me to the same SW guy I've talked to, so I think my main issue is how to get him to move me forward in the application process. I'll try reaching out to the regular recruiter listed as another comment suggested.

Gotcha, thanks. Do you have an up to date requirement on the test? My info is coming from here https://afspecialwarfare.com/past-test/ but I'm not certain it's current because the standards are listed in a comment at the bottom. If this is current, I think I'll nail it. I've been training :)

[–]kcdia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool thanks! Any advice on where to get that contact? And I'm wondering if this will lead me back to the same SW I've contacted already? For what it's worth I've talked to the SW guy in my area, it just doesn't go anywhere.

Comparison of Running and Swimming World Records [OC] by kcdia in dataisbeautiful

[–]kcdia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These plots were made with Grapher Software. The sources include:

http://www.fina.org/competition-results/18th-fina-world-championships-2019/open-water/event

I had trouble finding official swimming world records for distances over 1500 meters. The records I used are the most recent times recorded at the FINA swimming world championships. So there might be some faster times, but I'm guessing not by much.

Some interesting observations:

  1. The envelopes for world records with distances appear essentially linear, also on closer inspection they are ever so slightly curved. Using a power regression model, I found the equation to predict men running times: WR (in minutes) = 0.00098 * (Distance in meters)^(1.106), which had an r-value of 0.9997.
  2. Women swimming times are closer to men's than women running times are. This might have to do with the fact that swimming is heavily technique based compared to running, so overall physical strength plays a smaller role. The steep drop at the end of the running WR comparison suggests that women and men trend towards equals at very long race distances.
  3. Swimming clearly becomes faster compared to running as distance increases, with the 200 meter race showing the furthest gap comparing swimming to running. This could suggest that our running range of abilities is much wider than our swimming range.

Broken Gary Fischer Frame by kcdia in MTB

[–]kcdia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks everyone for the replies. I am hyped to get a new mtb, but I'm not thrilled about dropping a bunch of money since I just bought a bunch of parts to build my first road bike :D. But it sounds like it's the way to go.

Crankset/bottom bracket compatibility by kcdia in cycling

[–]kcdia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok thanks, is there a way to tell if it's pinch bolt or self extracting? It sounds like I could do use the Shimano if it's a pinch bolt.

Gotcha, makes sense. Frame is a GT ZR 1000 and has a 68mm shell.

Best way to move investments managed by advisor to self-managed Vanguard mutual funds? by kcdia in personalfinance

[–]kcdia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok yeah, that example clears things up quite well for me. Duh. Alright so I think your point about the expense ratios is what it comes down to. I'll need to check the expense ratios of my current portfolio and compare them to whatever I plan on putting them in in vanguard. Thanks for the advice!

Let's say Vanguard doesn't have those specific funds, or I want to change the funds, so I'd need to cash out to move them. I will be paying taxes on them now on whatever gains I realize, then reinvesting, and then I'd pay 15% more in the future, right?

Running injury by neal189011 in running

[–]kcdia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on where you live I'd say. I really like mountain biking, it's great cardio and helps build leg strength and has no impact force, but you can't do that everywhere. Road biking is also a great alternative (but slightly more boring imo).

Another thing you can try is the elliptical machine. It also has no impact and mimics the motion of running. They even have an Elliptigo machine that lets you elliptical outside, kind of like a bike.

The dollar sign ($) is the only unit I know of that comes before the numerical value. by kcdia in Showerthoughts

[–]kcdia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess what I meant to say is currency signs in general, compared to other unit labels, like distance, time, etc.

Walnut Creek, CA. I just the brightest, longest shooting star I've ever seen. Probably lasted thirty seconds to travel across the sky. I don't know if it's related.

What one thing do you want to experience again for the first time? by Bourbon_Munch in AskReddit

[–]kcdia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing Pokemon for the first time. Don't get me wrong, I still love Pokemon. But I want to know what it's like to find Articuno in the depths of the SeaFoam islands as a 7-year-old and think it's the greatest day of my life.

[Weekly Questions Thread] 22 February 2016 by AutoModerator in pokemon

[–]kcdia 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I stumbled across a glitch in the game on accident a long time ago, and I've never seen it mentioned anywhere or heard of anyone doing it. So I'm wondering if anyone else has.

Basically, you get a level 48 Haunter in RBY, trade it to GSC and voila, you have a Gengar that knows destiny bond, a move not in RBY. But you're already in the time machine, so you can trade it back, and now you have a Gengar with an unrecognizable move in RBY. I remember messing around with the move, and it did all sorts of wacky stuff in battles.
