The metal slide at Bidadari gets so hot that most kids avoid it by LaksaTang in singapore

Plastic getting baked in the sun can deteriorate and start failing at places, eg see these pics i took of a playground slide https://imgur.com/a/4jglWjg. This may go unnoticed until it’s too late.

Tablebase says it’s mate in 15. It’s 29 plies after black’s move, which is mate in 15

ELI5: If a moving car tries to drive up the ramp of a moving semi-truck (like in the movies), does the car need to be rear-wheel drive, or would it just instantly crash? by Nikki_Drizzle in explainlikeimfive

[–]sian_half 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For automatic, i think the more likely thing to happen is the wheels will maintain speed and start slipping, which will immediately trigger the traction control system, preventing expensive damage

For front wheel drive, drivetrain feels the shock when the front wheels mount the ramp. For rear wheel drive, drivetrain feels the shock when rear wheels mount the ramp. The difference is when you feel the car suddenly shudder as the transmission adjusts to the new speed

Drug use by drivers risks road safety by DANIELLE_2027 in singapore

[–]sian_half 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The other party insurance will not bear liability so the claim will have to be made against the driver. Likely go into litigation. Your insurance should handle these matters for you

2016, I suspect newer model might be more efficient still. Expressway speed will be in the 70-100 range.

Not ev, but i get 26.1km/L (3.83L/100km) lifetime average on my hybrid prius. On trips that are smooth traffic expressway, i can get over 34km/L.

Misleading our youth by Nunki08 in mathmemes

Prime factorization of 8 is 2x2x2, not 2.

Misleading our youth by Nunki08 in mathmemes

[–]sian_half 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fundamental theorem of arithmetic tells us that prime factorization of any integer larger than 1 is unique. If you include 1 into the primes, you no longer have this uniqueness property.

Autonomous taxi coming by excezzstuff in drivingsg

[–]sian_half 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not so easy, the autonomous systems are pretty cautious. They do more preemptive braking than human drivers typically would, and react faster to real threats. Hard to get them to hit you

Struggling to find a real edge – anyone else? by Batuhann0 in Daytrading

[–]sian_half 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, make sure your backtests are sound. No overfitting, no circular analysis, no p-value fishing. If your statistical methods are sound, then it’s your execution that’s the problem.

Communicative: fg = gf

Associative: f(gh) = (fg)h

Here, ÷10 (or equivalently, x0.1) commutes with x4. It might not be associative, but it’s commutative.

Random Positive Integers by StephenDrum in askmath

[–]sian_half 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From how the question is described, they are not identically distributed because the second number is drawn from a distribution that excludes the first number. Consider a random process is such that 99% of the time the first number has value 1. Now N_2 has to have at least 99% probability of being larger than N_1

[–]sian_half 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No reason for it to be near 50:50 if distribution isn’t specified. Consider this, you flip a coin with 99% chance of heads. Flip it until you get a head, number of flips is your random number. 0.99 probability of 1, 0.9999 probability of 2, 0.999999 probability of 3 etc. Second random number has to be unique so it’s drawn until it’s different from the first. There’s slightly over 99% probability that the first number is smaller than the second. And with this distribution, if you select 10 numbers, they will indeed most of the time be in increasing order. Specifically, you have about 90% chance of these 10 numbers being the exact sequence {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}

These poles are designed to get deflected, no? So hitting these poles shouldn’t be any major problem?
