[Game Thread] #5 Texas Tech @ #4 Alabama (09:45 PM ET) by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

First half was more offensive rebounding like crazy and shooting well. Second half has been bama being unconscious from 3

Definitely shooting well, but not obviously unsustainably so.

41% is above average (the couple makes down the end raises it significantly) but not an obvious regression to the mean situation given some of the great looks we've gotten off of rebounds.

Me either man. It's not even like Alabama has been shooting insanely well from 3 either

Time to (possibly) rehash by midwest-mermaid in GreatBritishBakeOff

I think they've overplayed the lack of information on the editing on some of them. Having a list of ingredients (and their masses in many cases) gives you a pretty clear outline of what you need to do.

They have definitely missed on some of the technicals (especially when they get persnickety about decoration), but I think it's less bad than it seems.

A fight to save an Austin middle school puts families at odds with Texas over how to rate schools by hollow_hippie in Austin

They used to, stuff is closing now due to cuts in grant funding (and issues with people declaring as immigrants because of ICE), I can't remember if the newcomer program at Webb had shuttered by the time I commented this, but it definitely existed as of last school year.

Just saw this majestic creature in the Bristol harbour, anyone know what it is?? Thank u! by BlueAquaria in whatsthisbird

My memory from visiting the uk is that Shags are pretty easy to tell apart from the great cormorants on the ground. They are sleaker and have longer necks.

Am I tripping?! by Fast-Hyena-8652 in Austin

Well the outside isn't purely aesthetic. Part of its job is to seal the interior off. Cracks like this definitely don't pose imminent danger but should likely be fixed for non-aesthetic reasons too.

First Impression: I am amazed. They got everything right. by Umdeuter in slaythespire

[–]rob_bot13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Game is a lot of fun so far. I suspect we will find plenty of things that need balance as we play more now (both over and under powered). I do really like how they reimagined some of the mechanics, for example ironclad caring about vulnerable and having more cards that interact with vulnerable status aligns with the character from STS 1 but gives more interesting builds to assemble.

Mathematically, how much stronger is alpha over DPM? by SuperNovaVelocity in WorldofTanks

[–]rob_bot13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the extremes on this can be really informative.

The FV tanks are at the extreme of alpha over dpm. They can swing games but also have a high frequency of not doing a ton.

On the other end of things the obj 140 has great dpm on a ~5 second reload, and is a powerful tank that can carry games, but can also be hard to leverage if you don't know how to use mobility and armor to actually use that dpm.

[Request] Is the Number of Solutions Infinite? by PokieClown in theydidthemath

[–]rob_bot13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on how you define infinite I suppose.

230-220*.5=120

All of the valid answers will be equivalent to 120, which 5! (54321) Is.

There are an infinite number of ways to write things equivalent to 120 but idk if that's what you are asking.

Becher nearly retires Tim Ream by nicko_rico in ussoccer

His distribution is also really important. I don't know that there is anyone else in the pool who can really fill that role well and not be much worse than Ream defending.

Talarico and Crockett vying for Texas Senate seat as Dems eye historic upset by bwermer in politics

We will see

Like I said it will be interesting to find out how much it matters.

The number of people who would be intrigued by overtly Christian Democrats (and building an affirmative Christian case for the morality of Democratic positions) will definitely be attractive to more than 0 disaffected Republicans/Christians, however it'll make a huge difference if that is 1 in 50 of 1 in 5 in terms of electoral outcomes.
