i had to learn vectors, vector maths (enough to write my own vector library), then a lot of algorithms and stuffs
damn god
Top ten reasons why biology should have shaped us like Anime than whatever this current trash is
I love dark fantasy instead
Oh I love it too
they just taught me stuff
I read Berserk, such a good piece of manga
like one of my friends taught me vectors
Also read Tokyo Ghoul, it's so much better than the anime
Is also the reason i have freedom to do git reset, delete, add stupid stuff, etc. all of my dictatorship
Pasting large amounts of code
So that everyone can easily read your code, you can paste it in this website:

I think this way someone (or at least me) can learn physics/math without those boring schools
Yep
in fact i learnt a lot of maths and physics from programming
rather than schools
I actually wrote a small algebra lib because i dislike math being taught in the way of curriculum.
So i learn it myself, but i forget, so i applied that knowledge into programming, now i won't forget and have a liking to math without feeling hatred for it
i prototyped everything in python btw
lol true
That's cool
thats why the python is much larger
class Variable:
def __init__(
self: "Variable",
base: str,
subscript: int = 0,
superscript: int = 0
) -> None:
self.base = base
self.subscript = subscript
self.superscript = superscript
def __repr__(self: "Variable") -> str:
return (
"Variable("
f"base={self.base}, "
f"subscript={self.subscript}, "
f"superscript={self.superscript}"
")"
)
def __str__(self: "Variable") -> str:
representation: str = self.base
if self.superscript > 0:
representation += f"_{self.superscript}"
elif self.subscript > 0:
representation += f"**{self.subscript}"
return representation
One of the pieces.
Nah I'm reading kagubachi and gachikuta
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/N6UQ
This is class Term
Idk how accurate or inaccurate are those from real algebra lol
Yeah the animation was bad
Oh, I saw Gachiakuta anime, waiting for Kagurabachi :)
@shell quest you were right
just drawing everything out on a paper
helped me wrap my mind around it
Yeah kagubachi will be peak
Kagubachi is already my favourite anime of all time

I am just entering the second year in University in india, and I have summer vacations ongoing right now.
I have learnt python and web development basic foundations till now before even the first year. And i didn't code anything during my first year. Now I m making a plan of studying python for 2-2.5 hours per day. But what do I do for the rest of the day? What options do I have? I m not trying to learn a new language in parallel as already recommended by people and trying to build a solid grip on python first by learning by doing. But want to explore more options to take most out of my day.
I would appreciate any suggestions on what options I do have in parallel to what I m doing?
Which university?
Aktu
Is it good?
Igso avg is like 8 lpa
LPA?
Umm 0.8 million a year
So 800,000 or 8 lakhs
Yeah
Okay
I want to play volleyball so I want to buy a volleyball, which company is good?
Amazon
Igso
I have this online fear
That other people in games are bots
It's weird
and kind of annoying when they start to beat you or play bad moves
Like Chess or Roblox
dead internet theory
It's just so "self-explanatory", amazing one-shot
reminds me of old Gary Larson, like the "Midvale School for the Gifted" comic

Hello everyone, im new into python, any recommendations?
hi
recomendations for what?
hi, can i get an opinion onna song i did
Just to Learn
grok academy
Thanks is for free ?
yeah
Yea gemini is getting better
no
when you're kind of not good enough but you're kind of not good enough to be not good enough
i disapprove
No surprises.
holy aura
… you have that power?
(dont unpin it)
i just found out too
Couldn't just add it to the list for channel names?
That requires mod perms
you do realize we are in #ot0-no-stealth-portals-please
i love the pinned message order
I did not.
anyway now it's actually an eternal disapproval
are you actually asking that
were you not there when i did the whoopsie yesterday
Yes?
No
Whoopsie? What did I miss?
I’ve tried it before and I wasn’t able to do it
i tried to reply to my own comment and accidently pinned it instead
to mfing pygen of all places
You are talented my friend.
You don’t have to make excuses
We know you just wanted to pin it
apparently i did not actually unpin it, as fix did a few hours later
which i learned about two minutes ago
Fix really do be fixing
does the X button in the pinned messages modal just dismiss the message, then?
Try it and find out
it asks if i wanted to unpin
but i coulda sworn i did that to my pin
so why did fix have to
?
huh
You have changed the server.
my impact is enormous
With great power...
comes great disapproval

why throw it just because it's repetitive?
if it does the job and isn't unmanageable why not

this is what am talking about.
so its ok ig?
there are like 8 protocols and am thinking of expanding it
its the main file

you can make it less messy by removing unnecessary whitespace and unnecessary {} from one-line ifs and elses
but it looks fine to me
I think there might actually be more lines here of whitespace and single } than code lines
yeah gpt autocompleted it for me. i don't want to type the same thing like 8 times 😭
sure, but it's worthwhile to edit and polish the code after you generate it
uh refactor is the professional term
Hey! What’s up
morning
whats the point of using vectors if you end up with function bodies that unpack all of the fields and do stuff like self.min.0.min 😭

Are there any good replacements for jetbrains/vscode IDE? (Arch, nixos)
zed?
Try zed
been liking zed. it's really organized so i've been able to figure out clean ways to do everything i've needed to do so far.
for example i wanted to use my ctrl keys like i do in vscode even with its vim extension to control the editor, so i was able to edit the keymap file to do this. the autocomplete in zed's json settings files are very good. that plus the docs is all you need pretty much
{
"context": "VimControl || vim_mode == insert",
"bindings": {
"ctrl-f": "buffer_search::Deploy",
"ctrl-s": "workspace::Save",
"ctrl-b": "workspace::ToggleLeftDock",
"ctrl-w": "pane::CloseActiveItem",
"ctrl-x": "editor::Cut",
"ctrl-p": "file_finder::Toggle",
"ctrl-c": "editor::Copy",
"ctrl-v": "editor::Paste",
"ctrl-]": "editor::Indent",
"ctrl-[": "editor::Outdent",
"ctrl-a": "editor::SelectAll",

Hello!
i am thinking of buying a monitor (1080p) for a long time now. but idk if i have to sacrifice resolution for screen size
currently having a 13 inch mac m1
why do you have to sacrifice anything? Can't you use an external monitor with your macbook?
i think i can. but i never worked with like 2 monitors.
the primary one will be the 1080p monitor still?
i can't afford to buy high res monitor
I think 2 monitors is vastly better than 1 large monitor
I've been dual screens since like 2008
like right now I'm playing games with discord open on my 2nd monitor 🙂
maybe i should do that. better than not using it at all... because am just relying on my old laptop
i feel 13 inch is too small
ultrawides tend to muddy this a bit
and of course, you have to be doing something that supports 2 monitors
yeah, there's programs that basically split your 1 monitor into 2, right?
I've been traveling for 3+ years now so I just have a dinky little portable monitor
i can say confidently, though, that the vast majority of games are not going to cooperate super well with a second monitor
I think most modern games do it great with borderless fullscreen
I'm playing expedition 33 and it's flawless jumping between screens
there are a few games, most strategy RTSs like the supreme commander series, that are so good at multimonitor setups that they seem almost designed for it
Yeah, also flight simulators
ahh yeah, I don't mean stretching the program across 2 screens

why trying to copy and paste with tmux is so ass
What do you find ass about it?
trying to copy a text using the mouse
ctrl shift c instead of ctrl c?
in case ctrl c breaks the process
st works fine
I don't know what that means.
Not familiar with that terminal. If you are having issues using the mouse to copy/paste (not tmux selection mode) then the terminal does, in fact, have some suck.
like the terminal works fine with copy text with the mouse
Outside of selection mode, you're interacting with the terminal itself. Not any processes its running.
is just that tmux has never worked with it

In what way does it not work?
Doesn't ctrl+shift+v work on st?
Prefix-:set -g mouse off
it works
that means i need to patch st to support scrolling

Ok thx mate 👍

@cobalt wolf First one is graded, second one isnt
Really?
it can grade videos but its kinda slow. so use the desktop version. its slow cuz it needs to apply the shaders to each frame
@cobalt wolf if possible, share me the film once done. i can help you out too. and u can manually adjust saturation or contrast if the algorithm does it weirdly
il show u difference between an image shot in dslr and a graded image of the same
yea sure

Hi, I am 1st year uni student who just started Python and data science.
Mobile game recommend please
PuzzleGym (on android)
I started yesterday
Wow I seriously underestimated my lack of abilities XD why is it so difficult to intuitively think about how logic gates can be combined to create programs
I’m trying to make some working computers (not general purpose) in Minecraft but I’m really being thrown off by having to construct every logic gate myself and somehow fit everything together so it’s not insanely massive
Ig this is why computers were so big in the 60s
I hope you're using WorldEdit or whatever the modern equivalent is
(maybe there's something in the base game now?)
No ;-; didn’t even think of that
I was expecting for someone to correct me that everyone is using something else and call me an unc
I think there’s some tool for making buildings in Minecraft called Axiom now? It’s completely different because it has like a blender button that just takes you into a blender/game engine like perspective and gives you loads of tools
Oh I can help with that
WorldEdit is still my GOAT
you h*ckin unc
stop the government from trespassing onto your property with this simple wooden axe trick
What kind of mobile games? Puzzle or plot? Chill or minmaxing?
wait, that's a different plugin
World Edit is the wooden axe one
no, there was something else that lets you claim a region as your home, so that people can't break it
WorldGuard?
I would always do //replacenear 400 air water and just drown my world
There’s a couple of mods that do that I can’t really remember any of their names though
I think I last played minecraft in 2018 or so...
I’m scared of modern Minecraft, I played on a server with friends for a bit on a newer version but aside from that I just play 1.8
oh wow so recent
How was it?
It really scares me that 1.8 was 12 years ago now
there's some cool stuff on newer versions
2015 was 21 years ago. Feel old yet?
this took me too long to parse
I hope they make it free to play at some point, so that I can play it again 👀
🏴☠️
or bedrock
Bedrock isn't free, is it?
Hell no
the issue is that I can't buy it from Russia, even if it costs $1
Bedrock is somehow worse that Java even though Java edition is made in.. well.. Java
aren't there some clients that don't require you to log in with an account?
Hypothetically there are :D
well, I don't wanna run minecraft in a VM...
Although I’m not sure if you’re able to join servers if you do so
I heard that they added a friends list to Java edition
I know there are launchers that allow you to use custom auth servers
eh?
I don't know how common it is in the rest of the world, but in the Russian space it was very common for servers to implement their own auth (and run in "offline mode") instead of relying on the official one, since everyone was playing pirated Minecraft
Is that allowed now?
it's in the latest snapshot
Added the ability to easily play with your friends through peer-to-peer, even when you're not on the same local network
hope it's backported somehow with mods
I bet microslop’s gonna steal my data with it though
kinda sad there's only one good p2p server mod and it's source-available
not proper open source....
I don’t understand why source-available is a concept
to get people who don't actually know what open source is (aka the general public, "normal" people) to shut up
That's definitely an improvement over closed-source, you can actually study the code and build it yourself.
{Half-Life 2, Half-life 2: Deathmatch, Team Fortress 2} and Barotrauma are entire games that are source-available but not open source
with TF2, I think Valve just did it to get free bug fixes from the community 🥴
mayhaps
or, more charitably, to legitimize mods using leaked tf2 code
Sup python community
aboo got folded by the hovering inferno today
WE got folded
you popped a totem 🥺
What game is this?
Also give @summer robin his o back
moincraft
Minecraft has infernos and totems and postmortem goals?
hovering inferno is apparently a boss added by the incendium mod, which expands the nether
but the totem of undying is vanilla
And postmortems?
I play games to escape the job
Not get dragged into more paperwork!
i mean i'm pretty sure that's a vanilla achievement advancement
it is
bro no
the french only recently rebuilt the notre dame
plz no burn it down again
I got the achievement for killing the boss without armor on
Because i died and we had a respawn point next to the boss
real
we won't burn it down
it ain't made out of wood
we're gonna live in it
literally
I made python icons
hey
i got bored and now im learning lua and the neovim api
MENSIA amnesic abatement program is coming to save,,
-> post-mortem projection (a)
-> incidental (b)
standby for further details, ping me, or,,,,,,,,,, wait 10 decades
What is lua for?
an embeddable language for scripting

#construction #realestate #unitedstates
Hello.
hello0
Hello for everyone.
hello
@clear crest realized we could talk here lol
Oh yeah
are you a gamer? Like have you played many 2d games?
I play mostly puzzle games
Hello
Oh im making a 2d physics engine rn (for the past 2 weeks) and my current demo is only average
can u gimme tips on how to make teh demo better
why does pressing space from stationary give you random velocity either forwards or backwards in your car game
probably not sorry
I'm mostly here to break you car game
idk i think the space can give u negative velociy some times
but sometimes it gives positive velocity too
holding space?
probably the sudden clamping of the wheels can make it move further?
i think when you
release it, it gives a small push towards the front
but sometimes it goes backwards
and sometimes forwards or backwards twice+ in a row
i dont know then
oh nice the russian map you can escape the main road in like 5 seconds from loading in
yeah lol
you can jump off the bridge anytime
dang it the car doesn't fit through here
wanted to jump through the gap
maybe I can get the car to tilt
why are there mountains under the map that don't even show above
that's what I just jumped off the map onto
(I'm stuck)
just got back
woah you climbed the mountain? insne
those were just for background
I think maybe there a couple that cannot be seen from the road
A reset position button would be nice
so I don't have to reload the site when I get stuck
it would just teleport you to the starting position
@clear crest so that's the maximum speed
i dont know why its that Though 😭
maybe some mess up in the code
well it's due to gravity
yea
because I'm falling into the void
you should add creative mode
where you can fly with the car
i think i had one for development but i deleted it
basically it had no collisions, fly
nah collisions and car still
just flying
I just found a spot where you can get out of bounds without jumping
which makes it in-bounds now
how steep of an incline can this car climb?
ok I go to bed
it's 0130
I dont know the gravity is pretty low
wait there is friction but very less
Goodnight!
yeah

I found a bug in my writing program's daily progress tracking. 👀 I wrote so much I looped into the negative percentiles.
how does that work
I'm not sure but I think it's a simple integer overflow.
I'm too tired to read the code at the moment. Accidentally wrote for six hours.
How does one accidentally sit still for six hours?
I didn't say I sat still. I said I wrote.

Chill game but not to much easy and boring
oh yeah
You didn't know that?
Two games I mainly play outside of puzzle games are quite different from each other:
Tiny shop. Chill management, but without "afk game" shitty aspects. There's some plot, but it's more of completionist game - no competition or anything.
Very light in terms of storage.
Path to Nowhere
Quite resource heavy (uses 20GB storage :x).
Can be chill, can be minmaxing (late game is a lot of minmaxing, but you can use a guide then).
Good plot - post-apocalyptic big city, a lot of side stories in events.
Gacha element for characters, but not overdone (guaranteed S at 80 pulls). No ads, can play well without buying any packs.
Currently at half-anniversary event (ends in 2.5 weeks).
Edit: Ah, forgot to say PtN can be considered waifu game, lol. Not overtly sexualised like in some games, but it's still better to be upfront about it.
Official website is https://ptn.aisnogames.com/
Isnt DHL a car thingy?
Reminds me...
Nope, they are one of the largest delivery brands
They sponsor a lot of race stuff though
As soon as you said that my brain went "oh yeah", but I can't picture any of it
It's because they are so huge they usually sponsor the WHOLE THING, for example they are "Official Logistics Partner" for the FIA, "Global Partner" for Formula 1, Formula E, World Endurance Championship
in IndyCar they sponsor the Honda from Chip Ganassi Racing
probably more
They are the longest-standing "Global Partner" of Formula 1.
hey btw do you have any tips regarding this thing. i read a book and after a week or two i forgot everything in it. like say if a book is of 600+ pages and i need to understand it and actually retain it. what do i do? like i forgets everything i read if its theoritical subject and no practising and also i dont think taking notes from the book is gonna help me anyways cuz i know i m not gonna even read those notes ever again...
say i m reading progit or any other book
Don't take "notes", but at the end of each day, write a "book diary" of not the FACTS, but the "takeaways" you want to keep.
Notes are just another worse, shorter book to have to re-read
Facts are just a table of contents, you want "consilience fuel"
Also, I force myself to read or write at least something short before I let myself look at the phone in the morning when I wake
Even if it's like two sentences
Also, get a writing instrument you like to hold, I use YStudio brass sketching pencils and some mad freaking fountain pen variations, one of the craziest being this:
(Kakimori brass nib in Shuttle brass nib holder, iron gall ink)
It's not a pigment, it causes an irrevocable chemical change in the paper. Harvested from oak trees that have been stung by wasps and grown a "gall" that collects dense iron particles. It will instantly erode stainless steel before it dries, so you have to use gold, brass, ruthenium, etc nibs.
Inks are fun though, I have, uhh.. "some"
Feel free to not be as insane as me, but there are nice cheap (Uni kuru toga, Ohto GS01) things on Amazon that are nice to hold and use
Oh, and Clairefontaine and LIFE are the best notepad brands IMO
CF is vellum, LIFE is rad stuff from Japan
Kokuyo also good, that's the brand of "research notebook" in that last pic
Not super expensive, random seller hit https://www.etsy.com/listing/955002323/kokuyo-a7-campus-notepad-black-5mm-grid
(I use JetPens and 411Pens for almost everything)
The above though was/is all an exercise in making me WANT to write
We've done MRI scans now of people taking dictation on keyboard vs. with pencil, and the brain is WILDLY more active when you write by hand
Which makes sense, there's only one way to "press a", but an infinite set of choices about hand angle, pressure, etc when writing an "a" on paper
The proprioceptive layer is totally different
Staedtler (insane to spell) makes good stuff too, and you can get them at Office Depot, far less obscure than my proposals above
These pens are incredibly good, and as you can see, under $8 on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Needle-point-GRAND-STANDARD-OHTO-Black/dp/B08ZYWYJM5
It uses their special "gel" ink, there's nothing better I've found for writing on awful paper like a credit card signature line
(fountain pens don't work at all on paper that can't assist with the "capillary action", ballpoints force you to push down through the paper coating, and that's why they work etc)
(irritating level of CAPTCHA on the PubMed site, hard to link to, open access article though)
That's been getting a lot worse recently, I assume the current era doesn't really like us reading science.
Hello!
Jeebus you got nerdsniped
I'm fractally vulnerable to that, so many possible triggers haha
oi
autism didnt exist back in my days. now lets go take a look at my ink collection
I sometimes love and sometimes hate that I have both autism and adhd.
Because I can get a nice collection of something... But later lose interest in it :c
Book (re)binding seems appealing, but I fear that if I get actual tools, I'll also quickly lose interest. So I'm just reading about it and watching how others do it
hello there
i do have a question but this might be the wrong channel for it, where do python beginners like me ask questions?
Yeah, I had to "hack" this by arranging things to "force" myself to care
For example I had some FPGA project crap that was lying idle, so I revised it to be something involved in my daily driver car
and now I will crash if I let it do stuff and I haven't gotten it right haha
"skin in the game" 🙂
(not really, it's an "overlay" not a thing that would take control, just a joke, but not WILDLY far off)
This channel (and other ot (==offtopic) channels) are for everything (including non-python stuff), so this is a good channel to ask for this. 🙂
Questions without a lot of code are fine within #python-discussion
If you have something longer, consider #1035199133436354600 (if your problem is long or the explanation will be long, people will redirect you from the main channel)
We also have some topical channels - but since they're for specific topics, you'll probably don't have need for them for now
thanks!
I will say that #python-discussion is so high-traffic at times that you might have better luck here, just sorta "read the room" and decide situationally.
and of course feel free to open a Help thread over in that section for anything that needs a "real" answer
If anybody ever pastes LLM output at you to answer, use ModMail to report them, we will come down like a ton of bricks

Hi
Is it okay that I used a football to play and practice volleyball?
Its not fine to use a volleyball ball to play football
is "not finess" commutative
Installing anything on NPM nowadays feels like walking up in a dark alley.
Have to do a Node project, and now I'm pinning everything down like my life depends on it...
where is the same love for PyPI?
I feel unironically much safer in PyPI
Which is
Not very supported by evidence, but
It at least doesn't get a CVE 10 every 10 minutes
it's not that bad 💔
Honestly this is probably smart, would make you react to random bounces in a much "harder" way
Or you could write your own library
plus the football is heavier; challenging yourself further
also football bounces aren't that random are they?
💔
Oh, sorry, American, I immediately thought of those, vs "footy"
nvmm
Actually you might consider using a "6lb" medicine ball or similar
ohh lmao
ProForce makes many small sizes
6lbs is like 2kg ryt
2.5
Like bro its so hard to play volleyball with a football ball
Yeah
when I used to train basketball coach made me play with a 7kg medicine ball
shooting
and like passes
and I still suck
its not that bad tbh
I have a short (as in doesn't cover your stomach) weight vest that can hold up to 90lbs, also, that would be funny to practice volleyball in
Back in the 80s here, school bullies were NO JOKE, and I was a nerd that they all hated for also being on the "soccer" team.. so I would get forced by a group of four or five of them to go behind the school auditorium and dodge rocks that they threw at me
I never got hit, it pissed them off haha
firee
I had to deflect a few with my forearms but never got cut etc
Good practice honestly
You need a 12th stack, sorry
this guy
strip mining is lowkey the move
Balls are expensive so that's why I am using a football
so now I picture you as a 5' 5, skinny, forward (?)
idk, I've had more luck with TNT
true
mad pricey they be
gang you were the one who told me that
perhaps I just did the mining in a better biome 🤷♂️ (nether wastes)
but fbs are more expensive
And I don't want to wait for a couple of days
so tf u mean
The football is old
183cm, 79kg
Like 3 years old
ohhh
yeah for this season, prior seasons TNT was the move
like one laying around
so it is a bit strange
but I can flip a 295kg earth mover tire with my hands hehe
I'm 172cm and 50-60kg
Oh yeah not sure how tall I was in 6th grade
I am 202cm and 115kg
Big boy
202cm! Wow
in what world would u be a nerd to be picked on
!wa s 183cm to ft
190 cm at 85 kg
real, I am THE wall
.wa s 183cm to ft
6'0"
like 6ft
72 inches etc
@ocean walrus
damn
2 meters!!!!
175lbs
I'm 5'6 and 125lb 😔
You're as tall as a volleyball net
I'll probably add 15 to that in the next year though
6.004 feet
What is 125 in kilograms
115kg?!
took a minute
you a big boy
.wa s 125lb to kg
56.7 kg (kilograms)
253.5 lb (pounds)
geniunely how
the list 5, 6
about 56kg
my weight vest holds 40kg, fun times
.wa s 190 cm to ft
6.234 feet
.wa s 5'6ft to cm
.wa 190cm to feet and inches
.wa s 85 kg to lbs
wtf
187 pounds
That's Robin, short and fat
apparently it's 167cm
6,7
"centimeters per minute" wtf haha
67
"femto-meters per nano-fortnight"
Hey, I grow fast
I weigh 60 kg and I am 175 cm tall.
.wa s 5.5 ft to lbs
foot and pound are not compatible
so I guess in non freedom units I'm 167cm and 57kg
(5.5ft = 5'6)
smol
.wa s 175cm to feet
5.741 feet
.wa s 5.5ft to cm
168 cm (centimeters)
.wa s how much is 11 stacks of tnt in terms of gunpowder and sand
I flip my bathroom scale between "imperial" and metric every couple of days to stay in tune with the two systems
Failed to get response.
useless
sam sulek?
naturally
How many kilos can you lift?
real
My phone is set to imperial weather units, my car to metric hehe
.wa s integrate from -pi to pi (x^3)/(2x+1) dx
Failed to get response.
The Imperial Systems is what the rest of the world uses and metric is what the United States of America uses?
Good Guy Wolfram over here keeping us from having to care about math!
Other way around
.wa s wolf to dog
Failed to get response.
Imperial / SAE is the U.S. meme
Metric is everywhere else but, like, some random African countries that love us or something
.wa s meaning of the word "alfredo"
Italian, Spanish and Portuguese form of Alfred; derived from the Old English name AElfraed, composed of the elements aelf "elf" and raed "counsel"
When will USA use metric
some countries mix the two
.wa s Gilbert
Gilbert is a given name of Norman–French origin, itself from Germanic Gisilberht or Gisalberht. Original spellings included Gislebert, Guilbert and Gilebert.
Straight up never, as far as I can tell.
I'm fairly sure all of our science and academic stuff is already metric
it can do non maths too
but road signs and like, day to day stuff? yeah probably never
Freaking COMSOL Multiphysics lets you pick Imperial if you want, it's insane
I mean the average citizens
.wa s JavaScript
like they'll use feet for height, but kilograms for weight
the science & academic stuff is standardized (internationally) and hence metric
JavaScript (JS) is a programming language and core technology of the Web, alongside HTML and CSS. It was created by Brendan Eich in 1995.
So delayed
I remember that year, what a mess
like in India, my cousins use feet for their height, but kg for their weight
We should have stuck with gopher://
canada
.wa s wa s
a s w
I like cubits.. the length of the ruler's forearm, now standardized to 18"
Didn’t like all of 2 people actually use that?
farenheight is highkey valid though
they js feel like that in India
th is peak
Yeah, there are still some, but it was ubiquitous when I first started using irc
But you're Russian, right?
yes, we use metric for everything. and 'C for temperature
Has anyone seen the anime Haikyuu here?
Maybe we should forget about Imperial System and Metric System and just use SI units
aren't the SI units metric?
I love how you grow and shrink on different days
And some other stuff are different
true
I mean using kelvin is
Hi guys I'm a new member
I'm new to coding any recommendations on where to start learning python ?
saying its 300 kelvin out feels wrong
Kelvin is just offset Celsius so it makes sense in terms of being energy
Under the 1300 Composition of Yards and Perches, one of the statutes of uncertain date that was notionally in force until the 1824 Weights and Measures Act, "3 barly cornes dry and rounde"were to serve as the basis for the inch and thence the larger units of feet, yards, perches and thus of the acre, an important unit of area. The notion of three barleycorns composing an inch certainly predates this statute, however, appearing in the 10th-century Welsh Laws of Hywel Dda.
So insane haha
Technically I could buy a volleyaball but my parents say that after a few days I will probably not use it.
do you play volleyball?
I started 2 days ago

Some people taught it to me at school
I'm bored with football
Football is easy to play but there are more skilled people in it
Volleyball is quite a bit more "explosive", better exercise honestly
Football beats up your feet and knees by comparison
I play goal in football
But volleyaball is harder to learn but there aren't many skilled people at my school
Sometimes I do too
my school has like a lot of skilled people
also you can buy Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball as a business/educational expense 🙂
but I tower over them and can block
I tried defense for the first time today
mad fun
Thanks alot 🙂
I play at 90 degrees latitiude and 0 degress longititude
About that area
I used to play football, but I'm not good at it anymore
Volleyball is pretty fun too
block, libero, attack, back (ithink these are the position)
Honestly bro, we just play
We don't think about the positions
frr
So far I only know how to do a underhand receive and a overhand receive
my main sport is basketball but like height is a cheat code for most sports
Yes
do you know how to serve?
underarm
Maybe try not to hit some monkeys
honestly, I learnt how to play by just playing with my friends
I used to be shit but now im decent
Same
lmao
Usually during the PE class some people play volleyball, so I just asked them whether I could play and they taught me how to play
In volleyball you can use anypart of your body
So you can use your feet or head
but you can't kick the ball
Yes
whaa
But he can jump and reach 333cm
It's not that much
I think I could do that
He's a middle blocker too
The NBA standing jump record, in the sense of how high your feet are off the ground, is like 122cm (48 inches), insane
so a vertical taller than him?
the highest record is 51 inches
world record
Oh wow, that's incredible
Yeah, no human can clear their own height from a standing start
I need to work on it
There's just not enough leverage
I can only jump like 80 cms off the ground
thats good
.wa 80cm to inches
Rought estimate though
I pulled back my legs
close enough
So I don't know if that counts
tuck jump?
doesn't sadly
wait can you touch a basketball backboard
I haven't seen one in a couple of years
We've got one of these at the crazy nameless gym I go to (a guy's house, not a commercial thing), adjustable box-jump rig, you do it with resistance rubber bands, weight vests, stuff in your hands, etc
But probably no?
How does it work
You just start out with a height you can make it onto, and then work up
and you can work up by not changing the height, but adding weight to yourself, etc
How high can you jump in the volleyball cour
why is there an Akamai emoji
