Calculus tells you how curves work. Aqueducts are famous for their ability to be topologically flat. The math checks out

It’s true. Friends call me Snow Miser, whatever I touch turns to snow in my clutch. Interstellar was still awful though lol. I might have enjoyed it like any other scifi if it wasn’t specifically advertised as a scientifically accurate portrayal of space travel, but that is how it was advertised and accurate it was not
Im not familiar with kurzegesagt or Rick and Morty hentai but I’m pretty sure that was the expression on my face for most of the runtime of Interstellar
“Most people used the iron lung for a few weeks or months depending on the intensity of the polio attack. However, those with chest muscles permanently paralyzed by the disease need it for their lifetime.”
I am not any kind of medical professional so I can’t personally vouch for it, but here’s where I got the quote

science@lemmy.world•No meta-analytical effect of economic inequality on well-being or mental health || NatureEnglish
21·10 days agoFrom the abstract, emphasis mine
“Moreover, although inequality initially seemed to undermine mental health, the publication-bias-corrected association was null”
Maybe this term is reasonable and I’m just not familiar with the field of study, but this sounds suspiciously like “when you ignore all the woke dei nonsense” dressed up in academic language.
Edit: it also points out that economic inequality does cause adverse mental health outcomes but only in low income people so that can be ignored for the conclusion. Honestly I feel like my takeaway is that getting published in Nature doesn’t mean what it used to
Assuming the probability distribution falls off like a gaussian, I’d guess something like 3.5 to 4 times as large. I dont remember if that specific probability density function is gaussian or not, but assuming a distribution falls off like a gaussian is usually a safe bet

Cooking @lemmy.world•What are some of your stupidly easy sauces? (Emphasis on the "stupidly easy".)English
1·20 days agoWarm some sour cream, mix it with enough yellow curry powder that it starts to look a bit like light mustard. That sauce on top of white rice got me through undergrad, and it’s also good on food that costs money
My biological father did that shit every time we went to a restaurant while I was growing up. Then he’d usually try to get them to flirt with me, starting from when I was like 8. I still hate going to restaurants with table service decades later
The coca cola dispenser didn’t even need to be edited. I’ve used that stuff as a solvent for engine block corrosion more times than I can count
Same but I still keep the gun around in case any printers sneak back in
Thanks! Trying right now to figure out how to ask my former advisors for letters of rec without explaining my motivations, which heavily imply that I think they’re in denial about their work being “make tools for fascists”

Was working on a PhD in CS focused on industrial cybersecurity, though current events involving the three letter agency that funded my research lead to me crashing out and now I’m trying to get into law school and do immigration law. Far too frail and pasty to buy a farm though
More peppers more better, ya know? I’ve got a neighbor who grows them and she spoils me whenever she needs an oil change or something like that, haha
Pedantically, I think you could call muon tomography an antimatter imaging method. It doesnt explicitly use antimatter as a probe, but you do often measure products of antimatter decay or decay products that are antimatter themselves when doing it (depending on how much fidelity you need on the structure being imaged). I say pedantically because I assume you meant medical imaging methods and muon tomography doesnt have medical applications afaik
Looks delicious! I absolutely love chili as a vehicle to use ingredients I need to get out of my fridge/pantry. I made a white chili this weekend with miso paste; adding red miso to beef chili is so good that I consider it a core chili ingredient, but I dont think light miso in white chili worked that well. Other main ingredients were chicken thigh, bacon, white beans, poblanos, cowhorns, chipotles, serranos, tomatoes and cumin

Science Memes@mander.xyz•A rogue object so strange, scientists aren’t sure what to call it.English
1·1 month agoThat is a fundamental misunderstanding of how magnetic fields and the forces they induce work. Attract and guide are both words that mean the same thing in this context, ie “apply force to.” Not sure what else to tell you; I dont feel like teaching you electrodynamics so I wont reply to this thread again.

Science Memes@mander.xyz•A rogue object so strange, scientists aren’t sure what to call it.English
0·1 month agoThat is correct. It also has nothing to do with the original claim I made and you disagreed with, which is that the object with the greater magnetic field would be able to attract particles from farther away.

Well yeah. I said they were topologically flat, not bottomologically flat ;)
