What the sigma

Emasculated goes a bit far but I kinda get it. It doesnt bother me if a sexual encounter starts with a toy, but “let me grab my vibrator so I can finish” is a night that ends with me feeling like I’m not good enough and probably going to bed feeling bad about myself. It’s something thats turned a few dates into one night stands for me when I told them how it made me feel and they were dismissive of my feelings

I like the brehmsstralung restaurant myself. The vibrations make my teeth feel funny

e^(ix) = cos(x) + i sin(x)

That is the euler relationship. You can use that relationship to convert any expression with a trig function into an expression of exponentials and imaginary numbers. “Euler’s formula” is a good search term if you want to learn more

Shout out to the euler relationship for allowing me to forget every single trig identity I ever learned

(Sorry if this was a joke that went over my head and not an earnest question)

Afaik its a strategy to scare off predators. The general idea goes like… predators dont want to get stung --> predators less likely to eat wasps --> fly pretends to be wasp --> predator less likely to eat fly for fear of being stung. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mimicry here is a Wikipedia page if you feel like reading a much better longer description written by people who know a whole shitload more about biology than I do.

Idk about yall but I am better than a stegosauraus. Im social (allegedly), intelligent (allegedly), and my thagomizer is magnificent (undeniably)

This is a shit take. The meme is showing two different stereotypes of college freshman. There is not a qualitative difference between the “hard” sciences and the others; the biologists climatologists and psychologists I’ve known all adhere to the same scientific method and mathematical rigor I learned getting my handful of grad and postgrad degrees in physics math and compsci. The only real difference I’ve seen is that “soft” sciences tend to work on problems with more stochastic moving parts, making them harder to understand on average. They’re not easier, you’re just ignorant of the complexity and too arrogant to consider the expertise and accomplishments of others.

I have literally designed and implemented aircraft parts based on inspiration I got listening to somebody infodump about an animal they were studying. Learn the things other people care about. It will make you better at what you care about and probably a better person in the process

It’s hard while traveling, but eating even remotely healthy will make your experience a lot better. One of those fruit and veggie trays you can get from grocery stores plus like a loaf of bread and a thing of hummus can make a great dinner on the road for a family, I try to do something like that at least twice a week when im traveling. Panda express is a surprisingly decent place to get fairly plain rice chicken and broccoli, which is great for both nervous stomachs and people trying to maintain any kind of fitness on the road. Last I’d say careful not to give yourself kidney stones with energy drinks if youre doing a lot of long haul drives between stops

I still vote we do it. Guaranteed Nature publication for whoever figures out the infrastructure required to pull it off

(…) of uniform density in a neutral vacuum.

“Unsolvable” integral? Analytical math in shambles

Context tells me that was probably a joke, but if youre actually having trouble spraying palmetto bugs try spraying them with windex. They actually breath through their carapace, and the surface tension of windex makes it so they almost immediately stop getting oxygen --> stop moving. Gruesome, but you stop thinking about that the first time you wake up to one of those fuckers in your bed

The only real way to escape corporate enshittification and bots is to just pick up and move whenever marketing ghouls start to show up. Im quite happy with lemmy and the fediverse right now, but Im under no illusion this place will last more than like 3 years tops before its time to move on to the next platform with a user base small enough that its not worth astroturfing with ads and corpo propaganda

Indeed, the behaviour does need to be examined. You are actively confusing that examination if you are inaccurate when calling out the behaviour (again, with no intention of defending the situation in the OP, purely disagreeing with your “I dont care about being accurate when calling people out” statements)

It’s not about making a value judgement on a person, its about calling out a specific behaviour. As a thought experiment, would you have engaged with me if I came at you like “you’re an idiot” (making a value judgement on you as a person) rather than specifically addressing the behaviour you exhibited that I disagree with?

To be clear, I have no negative opinions of you and I absolutely do not think you’re an idiot. That was posed purely as a hypothetical to illustrate the difference in communication effectiveness between making a value judgement about a person and addressing a specific behaviour.

Yes, it would. It’s also not related to the comment I replied to, in which you stated that you dont care about being accurate when calling somebody out. My point is that you should care about accuracy when youre calling out bad behaviour, I’m not trying to defend Mr “actually it would be spontaneous” from the image
