    Art is about capturing the feeling of a thing, not recording and replaying the actual thing.

    A good drawing discards almost all of the unnecessary information from the real scene. Then you exaggerate to bring out the essence - which lines get thicker, which shades get darker, which features are literally enlarged or shrunken.

    That’s the labor of the artist, to decide what’s relevant and what’s not.


  • Because we’re working with AC, we need a small skin effect, which is given by the inverse square root of [pifrequencypermeability*conductivity]. It’s permeability that’s going to be the deciding factor here, because all metals have reasonably similar conductivity but ferromagnetic materials have four orders of magnitude higher permeability.

    This also means that steel which is not ferromagnetic will not work on an induction stovetop. The stove will detect it and the chip will reject the pan to prevent damage to the coils.





  • I have got to say that I am in fact surprised. What kind of shithole country approves the use of lethal force in situations where violence can be avoided? As a European I can’t read this and say “well it’s probably just one of the shitty states.” I’m sorry but I wouldn’t feel safe in any corner of a country where this is allowed.

    I can’t imagine moving to a country that just shrugs off the killing of a person because they were potentially trying to flee a crime scene. The fact that the person was a baby and that the crime was stealing one pack of diapers doesn’t make this any better or worse, but I suppose that it does reveal just how bizarre and deranged the people who rule this country are.


  • This is not an ADHD hack. This is how literally everyone cleans a room.

    We all need strategies for tasks, whether daily or occasional, whether simple or complex. And it takes practice to learn to execute those strategies efficiently.

    For everyone. It doesn’t come “naturally” or “for free” to anyone.
