  • Why don't you release the book text only first, I would be interested to read. Maybe you can get some funds to sponsor a human reading it.

  • if i am not wrong, it is a fancy nose ring. many indian traditions have some ornament worn across the nose, many times it is then stringed back to ear or hair from the sides. it is for ornamental purposes only afaik

  • if it is a one of thing, maybe i can help (not a us student, but maybe my school has subscriptions)?

  • why questionable?

  • i am not sure, but what i think i read somewhere is "ren" (as in pa"ren"t), so you would go like my ren dropped me to school or something.

  • well, would you be interested in befriending me?

  • me too, if you want one more

  • I am a mod, recieved such messages, and have reverted decisions. Often jsut knowing the person on other side is a human person, with some senses, gives you enough confidence to unban

  • i hope you stay wrong. Nothing against you, but you are the absol that has brought the bad news

  • maybe it is because being so weak, it allows things to be come together, and eventually be strong enough, by power of family.

  • i think it is 100 men and it is not going to be close. purely using humn as fodder, we can have 10-20 men kamikaze style holding/pinning down gorrila, and then ask the rest to take turn and basically throw themselves at gorrila, untill gorilla gets unconscious, and then all have to hit the vitals of gorilla.

  • the current problem with journals is that there is no money in it for authors. journals oly exist because of historical reasons, and older folks still value them.

    Arxiv exists as a semi journal, which is some what cc4 (or some other cc of your choice) and that is great, but still one source.

    You can just host your research papers as websites, as in just a web article, and use some vcs like github, codeberg, or self hosted forego system. That is arguably the best case.

    I have a paper which is on arxiv, and my supervisor has been "polishing" it for a journal, but to me that is a useless process, because i almost never care about things like journal impact factor or h index. to me, the only thing valide is steps for reproducibility, that is, give me a recipe, and if i can recreate, then you did a great job. This could mean, for example, releasing all your raw unprocessed data.

    how to handle reputation for who can review, but I think there are ways to do that and that’s beyond the scope of this post as I imagine it could get pretty complicated and would require feedback from people actually in the industry. The reviewers can submit comments and reviews back to the author via federation, but this time the process can be open instead of behind closed doors.

    one of the reasons reviewers are effective is that the remain anonymous, that is why they can shit talk a lot. You would not have the slander, if you make the identity real.

    I think we should not have reputation or verification, as i stated above, if you post on your own website, and not have gatekeeping. Yes a lot of the work may not meet "some standards". but even with current system, a lot of work is published which is substandard. if we can release work in open, and colaborate as we do for open source software, thart would be the ideal thing for me. Each issue could be a literal git issue, each correction can be a pull request, and so on. Fully transparent, and somewhat resistant to whole network failing. (assuming you have local copies, you can just spin another instance, and your paper still stays onloine)

  • this is my work. Our revious results showed correct trend, but, r^2 = 0.2. Got literally laughed at.

  • Damn

  • in simplification, you could derive that curvature of the orbit is basically the force between objects, with radius, from the centre of mass. Once you know curvature at a point, you ca define a series of curves fitting, and substitute with other postions to find all constants. And what is curvature? you can find online, that curvature is just a function of second order derivative, and you just have to solve a second degree differential equation.

  • not everyone has email adress with same user id as email (maybe is taken up or something(yes i know most people do get mail of choice, and in case of clash, people add some birth date or year, but still))

  • dr queso grande

  • it is "free" if you sail the seas

    (but even if yo do everything legally, alcohol can be very expensive)

  • you can use pressurised air to clean the duct. Some verterbrates like to call it farts

  • and much cheaper/healthier too

  • I was once renting a room, where due to part my lack of cleanliness (basically not throwing out garbage frequently enough, i waited for a week or two) and my rooms window being right above a flower bed (and i kept the windows open for the most time) and my room being moist for the most time (i dried clothes in my room) I got lots of small red bugs (hundreds or thousands). they did not bite, but they were annoying. I had a few bad weeks, so i also did not care about them at the time.

    To get rid of them, I had a multi part strategy, basically 1 was trying to physically force them out - by raising the room temp to high, and cycling window open and close, and also cleaning out my room better (taking garbage every 2 or 3 days), worked partially well (maybe more than half gone). Other was to use a chemical irritant (i used a mix of dettol and water) to spray on their usual spots, and llet them be dry otherwise, and stopped drying clothes inside. Once I got to getting rid of them, I got it in a week or so.

    Also where i live currently, it is musquitos. They are everywhere where I live, kinda a public health issue which is largely outside our scope. I cant really do much against them. General advice is to keep surroundings clean and minimise their breeding spots. My folks do try to kill them with the zapping rackets, but that is almost lost cause.
