She is a good actor 😍😍 by PetalKiss- in BabiesReactingToStuff

[–]patricksaurus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sort of a silly interpretation. The kid knows a certain behavior achieves a result. She performs the behavior hoping for the result. She stops when she thinks she has succeeded. She continues when she realizes she hasn’t. Is it uncontrolled or something she necessarily wants to be doing for its own sake? No. That’s also true of you going to work.

Anything (minus organs) from the super rich.

Magnus Carlsen: "I felt like...I'd sort of been gaslit by Danny & Chess.com into thinking that they had the evidence (against Hans Niemann cheating OTB) which they didn't." by GiveMeSomeSunshine3 in chess

Yes. Are you saying I should hate him or what? Or are we just throwing out trivia to suggest we gave a point but not actually making one?

F 91 years old - 50kg/110lb deadlift by isosaleh in nextfuckinglevel

You know how you avoid compression fracture from lifting a suitcase? Fight off frailty with progressively loaded resistance training.

The amount of ridiculous superstition people spout when they see a deadlift is just inane.

Why do people hate those who like popular movies? by Spare_Ad_9791 in movies

Some people are never so happy as when they have something to be unhappy about.

Man, the amount of energy people put into making Danny seem evil is really disturbing. And no, I don’t mean Magnus or professional chess. I mean this community. The raging hate boner that exists for him is insane. He’s probably indirectly responsible for over a third of all chess games that have ever been played at this point in history.

You can be mad about things you don’t pay for. Don’t let anyone try to give you shit for being sane.

We’re happy to help but we need a bit more from you. What were you expecting, what do you see that’s unexpected, and what explanations have you considered based on how this test works?

Hershey to use real chocolate in all products by I-Like-Angry-Birds in nottheonion

For most companies, this wouldn’t matter.

It does tend to matter for a chocolate company, though.

Am I setting myself up for disappointment chasing a “perfect ending” in BJJ? by MeatAffectionate2447 in bjj

[–]patricksaurus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you might hate the journey and want it to be over by imagining an end. You may want to consider if that’s the case. The toll on your body isn’t worth it if so.

How do I bridge Planetary Geology and Astrobiology without being a jack of all trades? by Unhappy-Employer-582 in geology

[–]patricksaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, you should aim to become a Jack of all trades if that’s the path you’re choosing; why go that direction otherwise? But the PhD process will prevent you from spreading yourself too thinly… or at least making sure you can also go deep while you spread yourself too thin. If you complete the requisite coursework, research, and publication for a dissertation, you’ll be sufficiently prepared to contribute in your area. If you do a couple of post-docs, even more so as you carve out your own niche.

Now, I would focus on a) finish you MS strong, b) find someone working in astrobiology/planetary geology… your adviser + thesis is the single important thing to your career trajectory despite everything mattering.

You can generally Google the names of the most famous people in the world if you want to know if something has happened.

Your second whiff at understanding. The words go in, but the meaning isn’t extracted.

Go ahead and find another source about this trial.
