Ah this brings me back to my bachelor course on Quantum Physics. Once you end up with intermediate equations spanning a full sheet of paper you start questioning your life choices.

Uit ervaring kan ik vertellen dat het heel leuk is om daar een bootje te huren en er rond te varen.

Ha! As if that is ever going to be successful.
AFAIK most typed languages have this behaviour.
I always liked Terminator because of the easy splitscreening.
Acetamide@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What discontinued feature do you miss from phones or other technologies?English3·3 years agoYeah I’m glad that some series (Pixel AFAIK) are now releasing slightly smaller phones, because the growth was getting ridiculous and highly impractical.
Let’s just design every website using a table again. Or even better, frames!

In the F1TV commentary they said that they (McLaren) were not expecting much from the Hungaroring, but Norris made it into third with Piastri keeping up in fourth!
Acetamide@lemmy.worldto Formula 1@lemmy.ml•2023 Hungarian Grand Prix | Qualifying SessionEnglish3·3 years agoYeah, let’s hope Ricciardo keeps on improving once he gets to know the car more!

Acetamide@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.ml•Australia baffled as unidentified mystery object washes up on beach2·3 years agoMany “space” fuel tanks have inflatable bladders inside to control the pressure and location of the fuel, especially in zero-g. Otherwise, the fuel could float away from your tank valve. It is possible that this tank has a fully or partially inflated bladder, making it much more buoyient.
Acetamide@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.ml•Australia baffled as unidentified mystery object washes up on beach101·3 years agoI’m 100 percent certain that this is a spacecraft or launcher fuel tank. I’ve worked on reentry analyses of spacecraft fuel tanks before, and I can tell you that these very commonly survive re-entry for several reasons.
Firstly, they are by far the largest components housed inside the vehicle’s outer structure. The structure usually takes the brunt of the aerodynamic and thermal forces, protecting the tank from the largest destruction.
Secondly, the tank itself has to handle the huge fuel pressures involved (easily going towards many hundreds of atmosphere pressures!). This obviously means that incredibly tough materials have to be used.
Thirdly and finally, as can be seen in the pictures, their shape is symmetric, making the shape aerodynamically very unstable. This means the fuel tank has the tendency to tumble in the airstream. The tumbling continuously causes different parts of the tank to be exposed to the heat and other parts to cool down.
Fuel tanks are the major risk during reentry to people and other stuff on the ground, perhaps together with the massive engine blocks. To minimise the chances of hitting someone or something, re-entries are nearly always aimed at the Pacific Ocean, hence them being more likely to wash ashore in Australia.

Acetamide@lemmy.worldMto Netherlands@lemmy.ml•Rutte kondigt vertrek uit politiek aan: 'Niet meer beschikbaar als lijsttrekker VVD'Nederlands1·3 years agoIk las ook dat volgend jaar het grote ‘transferseizoen’ bij de NATO en EU is. Misschien dat dat voor hemzelf ook wel meetelt.
Acetamide@lemmy.worldMto Netherlands@lemmy.ml•Kabinet gevallen, geen akkoord over asielmaatregelen0·3 years agoIk denk dat het een duidelijke geforceerde zet van de VVD was, dus ik weet ook vrij zeker dat ze al een strategie hebben bedacht voor tijdens en na de verkiezingen. Ik denk dan ook niet dat Rutte er nu zelf vandoor gaat.
Waarschijnlijk willen ze een een tweestrijd creëeren (dit proberen ze altijd), in dit geval met de BBB om van de centrum-linkse partijen af te komen.
Hoe dan ook verwacht ik van alle huidige problemen - zoals stikstof, toeslagen, immigratie - we nog de komende jaren heel ver van effectieve oplossingen afzitten.
It’s incredible what lengths people will go to experience a short high of moral superiority.
