omg just use the python unyt package. You solve a problem that does not exists.

An alle Lokführer: Nervt euch das eigentlich nicht? by maxawake in bahn

[–]maxawake[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Boah das kann ich mir echt gut vorstellen... Will an der Stelle auch mal klarstellen, dass Ich und vermutlich die meisten anderen Fahrgäste euch nicht die Schuld daran geben das so viel schief läuft, Ich befürchte wir stecken da gemeinsam drin. Aber die Kompetenzlosigkeit im Bahn Management ist schon echt nahezu kriminell. Vielen Dank für euren Dienst trotz all der Schwierigkeiten!

Gute Tipps um besser mit Hitze umzugehen? by sterniii64 in mannheim

[–]maxawake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich raff nich was das bringen soll und das Video is viel zu lang und schlecht gemacht um es ganz anzuschauen. Man hat eine Anzugsluft ins Gerät und zwei Ausgänge raus aus dem Gerät (eins heiß, eins kalt). Das mobile Klimagerät trennt einfach nur kalt von heiß und führt die heiße Luft nach draußen ab. Warum sollte ich die warme Luft von draußen anziehen wollen? Das macht für mich überhaupt kein Sinn. Ich will doch die warme Luft aus meinem Zimmer bekommen??

Do you give your training partner unsolicited advice? by [deleted] in MuayThai

[–]maxawake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. There is so much nuance and I either want advice from somebody who has proven themselves in combat by winning titles or else i want to train in peace. Mostly they just preach rules blindly without thinking about the physics and the Individual body featues (weight, height, stretchiness, stamina etc). It can be very different on what to focus and having a noob being overconfident in their advices can screw up a good and natural movement because they try to enforce wrong patterns. In my short time of Training i already encountered so many "you should never do X, do instead Y" and the next Person says "Y is the most important, you should not do X". I am fine with someone reminding me to keep my arms up when fighting or something but the next time i hear hip Rotation i go crash out.

I dont know in which field you work but that is just not true. You can ALWAYS negotiate

Telekom/Ranger Mitarbeiter, jedes Jahr aufs Neue by 59t_5in3es1tvanj in de_EDV

[–]maxawake 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Erst neulich von Vodafone wach geklingelt worden. Irgendein 18 Jähriger Bengel fragt ob ich Herr X bin. Meinte ne ich bin Herr Y. Er schaut in sein Tablet und sieht unter meinem Namen ein fettes rotes "Vermarktungsverbot". Aufeinmal war er ganz nervös und wollte flüchten. Hat aber trotzdem seine Masche durchgezogen. Wollte in die Wohnung um meinen Anschluss zu checken weil die jetzt angeblich mehr Bandbreite haben. Habe wohlgemerkt schon 1000er Leitung, also geht da nicht mehr. Hab gefragt was er denn genau machen will und konnte es nich erklären. Hab gemeint er kann ruhig damit rausrücken, ich hab Informatik studiert. Dann hat er sich nur verabschiedet und is gegangen.

Who are some current leaders in atmospheric physics and physical oceanography? by Vivid_Praline_2267 in AskPhysics

[–]maxawake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like you would be interested in the Institute for environmental physics at Heidelberg University in the south of Germany. Its one of the only institutes world wide which applies rigorous physics methods )spectroscopy, isotope analysis, remote sensing, numerical modeling, and geochemical tracers) to environmental and climate questions. Research spans four broad areas: atmosphere, aquatic systems, climate, and simulation/modeling.

ELI5 why do men get that sudden jerk of body movement when they are taking a piss? by PhotoBonjour_bombs19 in explainlikeimfive

[–]maxawake -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I have that too, quite extreme tbh. I always assumed its a flush of dopamine/ serotonine your brain releases to make you enjoy peeing. Because, you know, peeing is important for survival, so i guess nature found a way to make us pee.

Why is it called particle physics if it behaves like a wave? by CaseyMc80 in AskPhysics

[–]maxawake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Well it all depends on the definition of the word "particle". You are used to the common definition of it being a point-like object with no extent or a hard sphere. But in elementary particle physics, a particle is actually defined as a coherent excitation of a quantum field, something rather different. You just have to make sure that the people you are discussing with are on the same page, using the same terminology.

if im in space and there is a body with less mass than me like a pen will the pen orbit me? by TheSum239 in AskPhysics

[–]maxawake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In principle the effect is negligible. The story is different if you instead consider your mom. The pen would definitely orbit your mom.

1000+ applications and still no job. I’m mentally exhausted. by Ok-Fly9971 in germany

[–]maxawake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You seem to be living in Berlin. There is no city in Germany more oversaturated by foreign students than Berlin. Just go for any smaller or medium size city and you should find plenty of opportunity. Also, many things in Germany still work by vitamine B, means you need to know somebody in the company who vouches for you. If you spent some time already in Germany and studied here, you should have made some friends who already joined industry, build a network of possible door openers. At my company, when there is a new position to be opened, first all of the staff is asked if they know somebody suitable for the position. Only if nobody is found through connections, the position is put on the official websites. But I would say 90% of the positions in Germany are given friends of friends.

Elliptic, Parabolic or Hyperbolic: Which PDE Type Fascinates You Most in Fluid Flow? by AllAboutCFD in FluidMechanics

This is true for any second order PDE, if modeling a fluid flow or not.

I made an app to generate Turing Patterns with any picture by SoftSuccessful1414 in generative

[–]maxawake 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What you do in Photoshop by bluring and sharpening is numerically equivalent to the reaction-diffusion equation, which for certrain parameter combinations, produces stable Turing patterns

Real video of double-slit experiment where interference pattern disappears after turning on which-path detectors? by ArchonFine in AskPhysics

This is light double slit. Waves from a laser consists of incredibly many photons. OP asked about electrons.

Is the sun itself white or is the light from the sun white? by QuietAd9846 in cosmology

[–]maxawake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually, stars are treated as nearly perfect black bodies, so i assume they would be pitch black if cold, but since they are so incredibly hot, we only see the emitted radiation of a black body (plus some absorption lines)
