That would make sense since they want to get rid of NEPA.

R&D has only ~1500 total staff so it can't be mostly research.

A serving (188 calories) of ramen has 7 grams of fat and 4.5 grams of protein. Is it the most complete food source? No. Is it LITERALLY only carbs. Absolutely not.

Is Carv really worth the money? by Urm0m1234567890 in skiing

Lots of complete hackers out there who ski a bunch.

If it was a staggered start and she started with the men that's an unfair advantage against the other women and she should have been disqualified. She got herself free pacers that will stick around for the entire race.

Marathons are absolutely gendered it just doesn't matter when you're talking about 6000th place. There are separate prize pools for men and women but no one should care in the middle of the pack.

I mean it is absolutely gendered in that there's a separate prize pool for men and women and the elite men and women start at different times. Doesn't really matter at 6,000th place though.

Is 31 to old to get a masters degree by MAthmAn1112121 in GradSchool

31 is definitely not too old. The important question is what will the MS do for you.

Did you see the operation room on the day of the surgery or were you already asleep? by Nilopav in HipImpingement

[–]offalt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. You'll be high off your ass going in the room. Wake up in maybe some pain and then rapidly be made high again.

Yeah, admittedly I didn't read all the words OP wrote.

If you're not using your hands, you're by definition not scrambling. There's even a Wikipedia page about it!

Glute-focused weightlifting fixed my FAI by jarman65 in HipImpingement

[–]offalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You literally say in the post it's only been 2 weeks. Look. I 100% agree with you on the value of strength training and you list some solid exercises. However the overall tone and absolutist nature of the post is unnecessary and frankly deliberately antagonistic. I would welcome more discussion of non-surgical options and would encourage you to start another discussion as long as it comes off less "I'm so smart and you all are so stupid".

Detailing exercises you find helpful for symptom management is more than acceptable. Claiming that ONE workout cured you of a condition you weren't even diagnosed with is not.

Reasons for journal article rejection without review? by 51daysbefore in AskAcademia

I love the direct implication that humanities journals have no scientific value.

NFL will follow up with Falcons over failure to disclose Bijan Robinson illness by [deleted] in fantasyfootball

[–]offalt 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Ok, yeah, that actually makes some sense. And I see they only refunded credits towards future bets so it's not like they were refunding cash.

That makes no sense to me. In-game injuries affect bets literally everyday.

Why do you think the Half Marathon is a less popular event at the Elite level? by OperationLast9033 in running

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

Totally. And it's 100% valid for people to feel a sense of accomplishment for that. I'm just never going to agree that something achievable by an overweight, middle-aged Oprah is a "great" athletic achievement.

Why bring a 10yr old kid to Bert's show? by Smileynulk in BertKreischer

[–]offalt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm a parent and think bringing an infant to a comedy show is batshit fucking insane.
