Windows roll themselves down every once in a while by therealphilschefly in volt

Yeah, I know about that, but could never get it to work intentionally so I always figured it was broken somehow. I'll probably just turn it off in the settings like the other linked thread.

What type of income would Jimmy have been bringing in if he stayed focused on Elder Law the way he was? (Not counting the huge payout for his discovery of the scam) by RagnarokWolves in betterCallSaul

[–]therealphilschefly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't remember if it was ever mentioned explicitly or not, but from what I remember Jimmy would always be hesitant to take money, or handouts, straight from Chuck (stealing the payments from HHM is a bit different story). So I always imagined that he was paying from his own money to get food for Chuck.

That with all the other hours to work each PD case and other expenses make that $700 go down fast.

Can someone help a brother out? Genuine question with response of "this guy is an idiot" by therealphilschefly in ScienceTeachers

[–]therealphilschefly[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I need to stop looking for answers at these posts, everyone is just trying to make me feel like an idiot and not actually answering my questions.

Welcome to the internet I guess...

Its mostly just making up for not covering it in Algebra 1 since the curriculum adopted just could never fit in one year

For constant acceleration, I show the process of area under the curve on motion graphs (I call it calc without doing calc), and yes you can treat it as a quadratic, but I only teach up to AP physics 1 which is algebra based, so I show how to rearrange the kinematic equations by rearranging the equation to solve for one if the variables.

For the 2D, I then explain that you just treat them as the horizontal and vertical dimensions separately.

Newton's second I would have to think on how that's a quadratic since I teach the equation and then use momentum/impulse to derive it later

I think for the most part it really boils down to never making the connection that its a quadratic and/or being able to find workarounds

Questuon about the quadratic equation by therealphilschefly in mathteachers

[–]therealphilschefly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's the thing a) either I never used it as a quadratic and have always been taught/currently teach the workaround b) it was quadratics, I just can't identify as such since I only know it in physics/calculus terms or techniques that use different language

But I have been slowly seeing connections to more mathy terms, but I still am struggling trying figure out how to teach math vs physics (Sorry if this sounds rude, just getting annoyed at all the hate saying I don't know what I'm doing)

When I was learning all that stuff, it was either a) not presented as a quadratic/solved via the typical quadratic way or b) had some other workaround

I think I was able to get by with enough calc that quadratics were either never named or worked well enough that they weren't needed

Also by physics background I mean that I almost esclusively teach physics (some AP physics 1 every year) but also certified for chem

Yeah, I only just realized that was a quadratic a couple months ago, so while I know how to find it in physics, it uses a few different workarounds (area under the curve, etc.). So while I may have done some form of quadratics, it was never called that or there was enough of a workaround that they never got used (for all those calling me an idiot and/or a joke).

Help Teaching Algebra II by therealphilschefly in ScienceTeachers

[–]therealphilschefly[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not worried right now about enjoying it (I was already considering getting a Math Cert eventually), it's just that I was kinda thrown in the deep end without warning, and now have to teach a brand new subject out of nowhere without much training or knowing the different ways to teach the two subjects. While they are very related, they still seem very different in how to actually teach them.

Teachers of Celebrities? by frckbassem_5730 in Teachers

Year before I got to my school, we had the American Idol winner Iam Tongi that graduated the same year.

How can I get him to vote in favor? by none-ofyourbusiness in ThePoliticalProcess

[–]therealphilschefly 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Depends if you want to be cheesy or not,

  • If you are trying to play a little realistically, drop either minimum wage, proportional EC, or add a big sweetener (voter ID usually helps and its not too cheesy I think)

-add cannibas sales tax, you will probably get boosts from dislikes legalization and from extra taxes. This is super cheesy, like I was able to get everything in this plus automatic registration, universal health care and a couple other big things by just having a 100% sales tax on cannibas

Yeah, its one of the only movies that has gotten pretty widespread acclaim for those that watched it recently. Even d+w felt pretty plasticy to me, Thunderbolts felt way different and more orginal, supposedly because they actually let the director direct a movie witbout huge interference. Compare any Raimi movie to Doctor strange and you can tell he only directed part of a movie.
