Torrannor posted:Link for context? I originally posted it. My students took some 1st year physics data of waves moving on a string and were asked: "Now you have to fit that data to a model. Graph the 4 data points in your favorite program for such (or Excel) and determine if a line is a good fit or what else will look better." No idea how a musical conductor's 4/4 wave came from that.

It took me a bit of time to understand just how terrible the scaling was on this. I mean, you'd expect a crypto-graph from a crypto-currency.

Carbon dioxide posted:From an European point of view, Sanders is center/center-left, the Democratic party as a whole is center-right/far-right, the Republican party as a whole is extreme right, and Trump is an idiot that can't even be categorized in any kind of political scale. America has no real leftist politicians and they have no clue what a socialist actually is. Of course, in American we don't elect weird nationalists like Front Nationale and UKIP

Fathis Munk posted:Also the last one is the projected budget for just the first year of his presidency. It's a bit disingenuous to compare that to the actual average spending over the whole presidency of his predecessors. How else would/should one present this data if not the graph shown? I feel it's fair.

Does VEP count registered voters or just 18+ citizens without felonies?

Strudel Man posted:I don't think that makes a lot of sense, since 'monday morning quarterback' has the connotation of someone making judgements which are easy with the benefit of hindsight. Exactly that, also with the connotation of someone who doesn't play the game themselves.

Carbon dioxide posted:So, the proud (?) tradition of most philosophy students being insufferable assholes already started with the ancient Greeks. I suppose that's good to know. We no longer execute them for being insufferable. So that could be a positive or negative depending on how you view it.

mobby_6kl posted:How do you even gently caress up a business where you're just skimming money off other people's work. They're failing capitalism. A lot of people saw this business model and decided to pay the company a lot of money to get in on sharing the profits of said company. These people (apparently mostly paypal) now want their investments to pay off more than they previously did, so they have to take a few risks.

The choice of this wikipedia table to have Wargs but not Elves, Dwarves, or Dragons is extremely weird to me. Are all 'good' races assumed to have souls, even though the article is contentious on if elves have souls?
