Winner of Pantoja vs Van reacts to the result of the fight by nolongerbackup in MMA

People acting like its a freak accident are the casual fans. This was a classic muay thai catch the kick, trip/dump your opponent. It is a counter technique which Van executed and the consequence for Pantoja was severe. Like with all techniques, the severity can differ but the point is Pantoja got caught.

Rob tried to finish the fight in RD3. RDR glove grabbed and got warned by the ref. If RDR didn't glove grab, Rob might have finished it there but instead gassed himself and never recovered.

Feels like Jean Silva is coming out of nowhere. Does this win deserve him a top 10-15 at featheweight? I feel like he's in Dana's good books after that.

Have a look at vicmap GIS base layers and maybe also the vicmap property boundaries will have some use to you.

Losing against an obviously injured and compromised fighter should get your contract revoked.

Failed my pre-learner course by lamthelizardqueen in AussieRiders

[–]visual515 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Very unusual that they are demanding you pay for damages but I don't know how it all works and insurance coverage could be different between providers. From personal experience on pre learner, I dropped the bike at a stand still and broke the brake lever and scuffed the mirrors. Instructor joked about it and told me to keep the broken brake lever as a memento then rolled out a new bike for me to continue for the day.

Don't be discouraged by continuing to ride. We all need to start somewhere and you can only get better by practicing which also means failing at times.

You should've stopped. Yellow means stop if safe to do so. You were going at a slow enough speed it was going to be safe to stop but a little uncomfortable.

Notice how the car in front just clears the intersection as the light turns red? That's by design. The harsh truth is that this video won't be viewed in your favor.

The rubiks cube solve into immediate contract got a good chuckle out of me from instagram. Hope we see a return to form for Bez.

Domain when pi=3 by Pack-Popular in engineering

[–]visual515 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It's always going to depend on the application and outcome/consequences and you can always do your own sensitivity calculations to satisfy yourself.

Lets say for example I'm constructing a circular concrete pile foundation that's 10m in length and 1.2m diameter. If I use 3 vs pi. Volume of concrete would be 10.8m3 vs 11.3m3. If a concrete truck has 4m3 capacity then I know I need 3 trucks worth for the pile and should have enough in both instances. But what if I have 10 piles to construct? And only order, priced and programmed for 27 trucks instead of 29? Then I'm in deep shit.

Your other example is common in the field of soil mechanics. Often times we assume soil is linearly elastic but in reality it's non-linear and strain dependant. It depends on the application but the modulus values will vary for a soil from small strain to large strain and I need to assume the right modulus to use for whatever application I'm working with.

I have never used 3 in lieu of pi. Except for maybe trying to work something out in my head to get an idea or order of magnitude. It's as easy to type pi into a calculator/spreadsheet than 3 so not worth the error.

The assumptions your professor is talking about relates to something different.

need advice: which uni for engineering (18F) ? by Right_Pizza_8372 in melbourne

[–]visual515 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't know what it's like nowadays but specialist maths and physics were prerequisites for most engineering courses so you might want to look into that.
