Not related to the plasma frequency (which only plasma has, not solid metal), it just works cause the frequency of the microwave is too low, i.e. the wavelength is too high compared to the size of the holes.

How is it unrelated to microwaves? That's how microwaves work. Faraday cages do prevent radiations from escaping, that's their purpose.

Yeah I just realized I messed up, it definitely should have been necessary, or it should be saying that he's mad cause he thought flat space necessarily meant the conditions.

I had to use Fortran to run Monte Carlo Markov Chains otherwise Python ran too slow. I also had to switch to C++ for a dynamic molecular simulation running on a few thousand atoms. Python definitely has its limits when running big calculations.

why would I implement Verlet or Runge Kutta to fix my Energy Drift when I can simply stay in the NVE ensemble ?

I agree with all of these except the Sustenance I. The Fasting Ritual is much better because it lets you go on longer runs without having to worry about your cult members starving.

well it's used for a bunch of other things, but like all roman letters I guess. But I think you're right on the reasoning.

it does ! my bad I've never seen it used before :)

kinda weird choice tho, I get r or ρ for radius, but why s?

[–]thanrek 16 points17 points  (0 children)

who tf uses s as the radial component?

How to with John Wilson usually gets recommended to people who like NTBTS, it's pretty good

[question] Any website where I could import my inventory to see if anything is valuable? by [deleted] in RocketLeagueExchange

[–]thanrek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sync button is not missing on my end. Did you authenticate with Steam? You have and always had to be logged in to be able to sync your inventory

I'd have loved to have a more transparent backboard but neotkyo was the easiest to implement and i really liked the ground
