@suricrasia take the goat and the cabbage (a cabbage is small & doesn't need its own seat). the wolf can eat the mob

@beeps Seems to no longer work with Cloudflare Turnstile, nor Friendly Captcha.

(Thank you for this.)

I combined two of my #3dprinted seven segment displays with a geneva drive mechanism, so now they can count from 0 to 59! #3dprinting

oh mood. i used to have reasons for avoiding alcohol/caffeine, but eventually i realized that over time the reasons changed and my feelings about it didn't, so i concluded that actually i don't know why. 🤷

@futurebird It's continuous if you're using the projective reals :)

@Log3overLog2
Possible evil strat: draw noncompact districts in areas with lots of opposing voters and compact districts in areas with yours, to make it more inconvenient for the other side to get to their polling place.

Possible patch: require subdistricts to be Voronoi cells, with a polling place at the generating point. Voters may use either of their district's two polling places.

@nyrath A thing I can't figure out: for a minimum-Δv transfer from Mars escape/capture to Venus escape/capture, is a direct Hohmann transfer M→V necessarily equal in Δv to making a stopover at Earth M→E→V? Necessarily worse? Why? Does it have something to do with a gravity assist and/or Oberth maneuver? All the Δv maps I can find seem to imply that the various planetary escapture orbits "go in sequence", but it's not obvious to me whether that's actually the case. (And do any of these answers change if you consider bielliptic transfers? Plane changes?)

@zarfeblong My first thought on CUP OF COFFEE was that, as a universal productive rule, FOO BAR OF XYZZY PLUGH is equivalent to XYZZY PLUGH FOO BAR. I assume this would cause several new problems. (Multi-argument verbs using OF as a preposition? I'm not thinking of any examples offhand, but I wouldn't be astonished...)

PSA copypasted from tumblr, pls boost  :

FEMA is doing an emergency alert test on all TVs, radios, and cell phones on October 4, 2023, at approximately 2:20pm ET.

If you live in the US and you have a phone you need to keep secret for any reason, make sure that it is turned off at this time.

Yes, I'm doing this months in advance, and yes, my blog has very little reach, but I figure better to post about it more than less.

Please reblog and add better tags than mine, I'm bad at tags.
