They are equilibrium points between gravity of the two bodies and the fictitious centrifugal force. Three are on the line between the two bodies (one one each side and one in the middle) where these forces cancel. The other two are also po

Low-quality comment? Duly ignored. This paper corroborates Piketty, which is what you would be looking for if you disagreed with Piketty in good faith. What do you want? Political brownie points? As an outsider to the field who's heard

I think a decent cutoff for when to defer to medication is when the problem becomes self-sustaining. E.g. you get anxiety about your anxiety, or your mania leads to disastrous actions that can't be emotionally handled in a normal state

The implication of that framing is to somehow overcome: "Local political culture limits natural housing supply growth" via - ignoring NIMBYs or at least reducing their influence, rezoning for density, deregulating to allow smaller

It also ignores operations of type (set of rows) => (set of rows) or (row) => (set of rows). and makes you jump through hoops of CTEs to implement them except in some special cases. Limited versions of these (flatMaps) work just fine

Um, it's only hubris if it's wrong (and evidence suggests we _can_, so this argument is irrelevant). And what's hubris for a single person is not hubris for a global civilization. And it's clearly _not_ an act of hubris

If you make 3 subsequent measurements of different but related variables (like a vector component wrt to 3 different axes) the 3rd's probability distribution will depend on the value you observed in the 2nd observation in a way that ca

My immediate reaction to this is you _probably_ had well-off parents in or adjacent to academia, and (separately) are likely to be in the demographic majority here.

These rants always seem to miss something important. Not everyone thinks like you (seasoned terminal users) do. There are different kinds of intelligence. The only way to get good with a terminal is to RTFM and _play_ with it, until you&#x2
