On the full cup, the circle is aligned with the center of the handle, but on the partial cups it’s aligned to the right edge of the handle. Can’t unsee

Arithmetic coding is one of my favorite algorithms. Any token predictor can be converted into an entropy encoder!

I have not once mentioned the media in my comments. Please do not misunderstand. They all were pertaining to your and @opinionhaver’s interaction

If they are incorrect, lying, and don’t realize it, but still arguing in good faith, then their arguments will fall short when challenged. If they are arguing in bad faith, then it’s a different story.

I’ll admit the claims they made are perhaps overly broad and difficult to challenge, but it is entirely within the realm of possibility that they can back it up with examples / evidence.

Jumping straight to calling them out is pretty disingenuous. Even if their points are more disingenuous and misleading, you shouldn’t be fighting fallacy with another fallacy.

Then engage with the discussion??? It’s very frustrating reading your comments actively shutting down discourse.

Here I’ll do it for you: I disagree with @opinionhaver because I think that filling stadiums in red and swing states is a tangible metric that is at least correlated with general election support. I think that Trump is even more polarizing than AOC, and so her polarization isn’t as much of an issue as they make it out to be.

There. Now we find out how substantial their position is when they defend it, instead of just crying about talking points

It may be worth it to decide how we define ‘unstoppable force’ and ‘immovable object’.

An Immovable Object has 0 velocity:

v = 0

Acceleration is the time derivative of velocity:

a = d/dt(v(t))

a = d/dt(0)

a = 0

And we know that

a = F~net~ / m

An object with infinite mass would satisfy this equation, but an object with no net force would too. We could add a correction force that will satisfy the constraint of 0 net force.

|F~net~| = 0

∑F~i~ = 0

F~correction~ + … = 0

To satisfy Newton’s 3rd law, we would need a reaction force to our correction force somewhere, but let’s not worry about that for now.

A physics definition of ‘Unstoppable Force’ is:

|F~unstoppable~| =/= 0

In this case the gravitational force fits this description, given a few constraints

F~g~ = Gm∑ M~i~ / x~i~^2^

As long as the gravitational constant G is not 0, our object has mass, and

∑ M~i~ / x~i~^2^ =/= 0, then

|F~g~| > 0

But this does feel kinda like cheating because it’s not really what people mean by ‘unstoppable force’. the other way to define it is just immovable object in a different reference frame.

a = 0, |v| > 0

I’m gonna stop here because this is annoying to type out on mobile

When did we even decide the proper course of action for dealing with gangs was to deport them? Everyone is debating whether he’s a gang member but even if he was, he shouldn’t have been deported.

The fraction of people who mess this up is too high. The common denominator between them is they confuse 100% and 100

You’re right, we should use our biases and opinions about the nature of this situation based on sensationalist news instead of due process.

Nuh-uh! You can configure Minecraft to use all that memory to run buttery smooth. Just make sure to not play longer than 15 minutes so you don't get the mother-of-god lagspike when the garbage collector finally runs.

The state isn’t a business. Services don’t lose money, they cost money.

Instead of paying your insurance and having them take a profit out of it before providing the service, you pay taxes and the money goes more directly into the service.
