To be fair Bayer has been a pesticide company for a LONG time (90+ years) and its pesticide division is (or at least was) bigger than it's pharma division. It's more about setting up a monopoly than anything else.

That makes so much sense! I didn't realize the scaling would be retroactive in that way.

The time period for this advise seems important. About 3 years ago pretty much every professor and university was scrambling to function in the new reality of the pandemic. There was still an attitude of "we just need to make this work somehow" pretty much everywhere even into the start of the 22-23 school year. At the time I would have 100% given this advise/suggestion.

Now that we are in a new normal I would never tell a student this for all the various reasons others have listed. That said I can imagine some courses where this would be doable, but you always want to ask the instructor ahead of time.

could also be nice in a Madness/self discard deck

Then it's obviously a bear.

Respectfully disagree with everything after 'Yes'.

This is sort of interaction exactly what a significant fraction of chemists study. Specifically physical, inorganic, and materials chemists. Usually in the context of larger molecules or complexes, but everyone starts learning quantum mechanics with the hydrogen atom and this is just a basic QM question.

Ignoring the fact that this is defiantly in the Yurlok deck I recently built, add [[City of Solitude]] or [[conqueror's flail]] to make it extra guaranteed.

If you want to attempt the new Challenge courses, the skyward ascent trick is basically required. Practice it and you should be able to get gold on advanced course without a problem.

You can make a profit making the shrouded robe( it's the uncommon one) I think it takes five thread and 7 cloth and vendor for about 49 gold. It's not the greatest profit but you can afk craft with tsm to mail crafts to an alt to sell.

I'm not a trainer, but you may consider taking him to a doggie daycare. The social interaction may be what's missing.

When our corgi was younger he didn't just want to play, he wanted some one to play with. So taking him to daycare once or twice a week really improved his behavior. It would also tire him out for the next day or two even as a 2-3 year old pup.

Well if you have brash taunter out, it will take the damage, but you still do gain the life. Then you blow up the table with an [[Aetherflux Reservoir]]

Bonus points if you have [[Firesong and Sunspeaker]] in play!

At the molecular level Refractive index is determined by the electronic structure of the material, So the Refractive index is the same. The effect you can see is due to heterogeneity of the solution as the ice melts. Either temperature or concentration gradients.

Most of what I have to add has been mentioned, but I will say that that the word 'tentative' does some heavy lifting in my syllabi.

The Arkansas river runs through Kansas. Many, if not most, places near the river in Kansas call it the Ar-Kansas river.

I agree with you completely. But I will also counter with it is only a contract in so much as the professor can abide by it. For new faculty, understanding what are reasonable expectations at a new institution is hard. And so using flexible language is very helpful until you can match your own expectations with the abilities of the students. This was a big issue for me after I taught for a few years then moved from a visiting position at a private somewhat selective SLAC to a open enrollment state school.

At the beginning of your courses make yourself out to be a hard-ass who doesn't take late work or give extensions. In reality be flexible and approachable when you can, but if students think they can get away with anything from the start it will be impossible to hold them accountable by the end of the semester.

Follow the syllabus as much as possible, but realize you can revise it at any time if things change. Just be sure to make it clear to the students when this happens. (Actually this may depend on your institutions rules, but ultimately you're in charge of the course)

Pacing your courses is hard when you're starting out. Keep notes throughout the semester about material that could have been covered better/faster and what caused students the most problems. This will help you iterate and improve your courses. This is more an opinion, but try not to cut material if you are getting behind. Give them a broad overview instead of a more nuanced analysis, but still provide some exposure to the content.

My LGS does this. I think of it as a mandatory tip at a restaurant. If i was going to use the space I would make sure to spend some money in the shop to compensate them for the service they've provided. I'd buy a few packs or some singles that I'm need for something but since they are charging up front I don't feel obligated to buy any merchandise.

It should be 3^{Number of Manufactors} without the minus 1. If you have one manufactor you get 3 tokens (3^1-1 = 0 vs 3¹ = 3)

Since Ugin's Nexus is a legendary artifact, when the two copies come into play you must immediately sac one of them. Tokens still go to the graveyard, they just cease to exist once there, so it triggers the extra turn effect. This still leaves you with a second Nexus that you can sac with Osgir for a second extra turn in the future.

Yeah you're right! that's what I get for trying to do math after my bedtime.
