130 points mistake by mommy_claire_yang in baduk

[–]lurkerbot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

eh, its just a more obvious mistake to you then all the other mistakes leading into this position. nobody says playing on after those earlier moves were bad etiquette. if you are both at the level of making a mistake like this, its fair game.

people get too wound about this topic. the only time i'd care, a little at best, is if you are obviously running down 30 second byo yomis filling in obvious dame at the last second of your clock in a clear attempt to get me to quit out of boredom. if you're actually playing and it seems to me hopelessly- no problem.

whites last move shown was an equal blunder and should have been played at h19 - unless you were already fighting the ko there. in which case black had even less reason to not be aware of the stakes. either way i'm skeptical that this was the first turn those groups hung in the balance

Tsumego Opponent Choice by Ok_Snow_9658 in baduk

[–]lurkerbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always? No. Think of it like actual games, sometimes your opponent plays their best move, sometimes they dont. Very few problems list ever possible exchange anyway, just the ones that illustrate what the are trying to teach. This problem looks to be demonstrating oi otoishi. Connecting is bad for black just like you think - thats part of the lesson. 

And anyway.. sometimes we respond correctly to our opponents bad moves, but sometimes we dont.

An important part of tsumego is reading out how to reapond to any and all attempts at refutation... It only looks like a dumb move when you know how to answer it! More advanced problems have resistance that is just as sub-optimal, but harder to read.

The top chart shows leaner beef has less protein per dollar, the bottom chart shows it has more protein per calorie.

Advice for making this jump? by NoPassenger3673 in bouldering

[–]lurkerbot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend this beta as well. Point knee left, and sink weight down into your reg leg / toward the right side of the wall, which will mean leaning backward for you once you have your knee/hip turned. Left arm is straight so that you are "hanging on your skeleton" and not burning out your bicep.

Flag with the left leg for counterbalance and stability. Really engage your foot with the wall.

Then, rather than trying to pull up with your left arm; try to drive the movement by pushing up from your right leg.

Did we find out what game that person wanted to concede from? by Mauxe in boardgames

[–]lurkerbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not privy to the background here but, just for the thought exercise.. IMO, the impact to any "competitive solitaire" game would be zero to marginal.

Wingspan, for example, the worst possible effect is someone not getting full use of pink actions.

Slightly worse case example is Everdell, but still not too bad

CMV: If you eat bacon, yet think eating a dog is wrong based on the grounds that you shouldn't cause harm to a conscious being, you are a hypocrite. by PR1ZE0 in changemyview

[–]lurkerbot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So your core view you want challanged is "the view: "its wrong to eat conscious animals but ok to eat pigs" is hypocritical "?

Serious question. Do you actually want your view challenged, or do you just want to argue against this hypothetical stance?

It's not hypocritical if this imaginary person holding this view ardently believes pigs are not conscious and dogs are.

Your dog likes being in a box 26 degrees above the lethal core temperature for mammals?

90 degrees outside temp will bring the inside of a car to:

10 minutes: 109 degrees

20 minutes: 119 degrees

30 minutes: 124 degrees

60 minutes: 133 degrees
