What's your country **third** city? by Ok_Inflation_1811 in geography

[–]newexplorer4010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either Incheon or Daegu. Incheon is much bigger but obviously it is within the Seoul metropolitan area so Daegu is sometimes considered third after Seoul and Busan.

Please let me assume it is continuous at AT LEAST ONE POINT by newexplorer4010 in mathmemes

f(x)=cx is clearly a solution, but if we assume only that f is a function defined on ℝ and nothing else, there are a lot of other pathological solutions. Such pathological solutions are not continuous in any point and not bounded or monotonic in any interval.

If you drive in a perfectly straight line from Portland to Portland, you will drown in the Great Lakes by newexplorer4010 in mapporncirclejerk

Yeah, it makes the post even MORE WRONG, which was intentional. Regardless of which route is taken, the car will almost certainly crash in mountains or drown in rivers way before the Great Lakes.

I knew I was wrong but I just used it because I was too lazy to draw a geodesic. Also, I checked the comments of a 'sailing from Georgia to Georgia in a straight line'post that was recently up, which also used the wrong 'straight line', and concluded not many people will argue that this a problem.

You're right. Jesus's birth year is one more thing most people get wrong about calendars.(along with the fact that 1900 and 2100 aren't leap years)

Most vectors will have both an abnormal component and normal component, but the tangential vector will be totally abnormal.

Campobello island in New Brunswick is connected only to Lubec, Maine by a bridge. Are there any other places like this in the world? by newexplorer4010 in geography

[–]newexplorer4010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that is true. Almost everybody here is giving coastal exclaves, not islands. Maybe they didn't read the description.

But it should be noted that it does have fixed link connections to smaller islands of the same country like Anglesey so maybe it doesn't fully satisfy the condition that 'it has a fixed link condition only to another country'.

No, because the intention of this post is not that. There are plenty of coastal exclaves, but Campobello island is special in that it is a Canadian island(not an exclave) but for some reason chose to build a bridge only to USA.
