One sec https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Army_Faction They're pretty interesting, aig big part of their formation was a sort of reaction towards the presence of ex Nazi brass in high positions in German government.
Also that manga is pretty decent. The premise is that after saving the world the legendary hero is now looking for a girl to marry. But he's basically autistic or something.

>>423165 if it's deemed necessary by a clinician they probably would i doubt they would without that, at least
FormerRei@mobile
>>423166 >if it's deemed necessary by a clinician Yeah, in general that's how insurance is supposed to work. In my experience it doesn't. Which is why the only way I'm able to get a new medication is through free samples my doctor gets, starting this week because she's at a different office. Her old office didn't get free samples. So now I can try this new medication that my insurance refused to cover (until my deductible was met). It costs like $1,000 for a bottle of 30 pills because the pharma industry is so fucked up. Although its also a relatively new medication which is probably why it costs a lot and why my insurance won't cover it.

I remember using it in botw but only for small adjustments to my aim I can't imagine using it to look and turn the whole game
But really bethesda just ports and rereleases their best sellers which are now Skyrim and Doom

Do they let you skip cutscenes in the KH1 remake I remember in the original I lost to the final Riku fight a bunch of times and I had to sit through the same 5 minute long cutscene every time
So much that I only got to speak to the client for 10 minutes.
The patient is a 15 year old autistic kid. His mom brought him in 10 minutes late, then they took 40 minutes to do a 10 minute questionnaire, which left me 10 minutes to sit in a room with them and tell them about confidentiality.
Yeah. If she can bring her kid on time, then maybe I can make it work. The kid is fucking homeschooled so there was literally no reason to be late, plus she's been here before. If the kid's mom is a pain in the ass, I might have to pawn them off on someone else, though. I don't get paid so I don't have any incentive to deal with abuse. The mother is one of those helicopter soccer moms.
>>423309 If the mom is willing. As the parent, she's in control of everything. If she says I can't do sessions without her, I can't. If she wants to know everything we talk about, she can. I have to convince her to let me treat the kid without her and also to establish boundaries for confidentiality.
For example, she's really worried about her kid jacking off. If I talk about that with the kid, she can demand to know everything we talk about and I'm legally obligated to betray the kid's trust and tell her.

>>423311 Is this the kid who was worriedabout god conemning him for looking at hentai
Oh yeah speaking of jewish, I heard that iceland is going to ban circumciccion on baby boys I'll need to look up on the media reaction to it some boring day
>>423318 yeah they aren't banning anything, just that minors can't be forced to partake body mutilation without their consent, which would be 15 or 16 in iceland can't recall many other nordics are planning similiar legislation on some stage anyhow I just bet some loonies are going to react to it in most amusing way

>>423321 the circumcision is the first covenant between God and the Jews To deny a child circumcision is, in Jewish law, the same as saying the child cannot be Jewish It's an attack on the entire foundation of the religion
Yeah, but you are forcing your religion down a kid's throat without asking them any permission and quite near permanently mutilating a body part for it why not just do it later in life?
Maria
>>423325 Yeah but that's your religion and your personal religious beliefs. Even if it is an attack on the religion, I don't care. It's not right to mutilate someone elses body for your personal religious beliefs.
Kirara 🚗
An attack on the religion is what makes it anti-Semitic Whether you agree with the tradition or not, that's just how it is
Is it time to move past that tradition? Yeah, probably But the Jews don't want to so it's anti-Semitic to ban it
Coincidentally iceland has apparently already banned circumcision for girls since 2005
Maria
Like it's not the fact that it's judaism it's the fact that it's permamently mutilating them. I bet if it was any other religion you'd use it as a point to criticise it. So perhaps it is an attack on judaism but there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to criticise a religion
>>423328 Well, in the end, no one is forcing jews to stay there if that is so important and no religion should dictate a nation states policies >>423332 maybe a hundred or two?
Kirara 🚗
how many jews are actually in Iceland i wonder
Kirara 🚗
>>423330 I'm not saying you can't criticize a religion or that tradition Im saying banning it is anti-Semitic
Everyone has right to bodily integrity, especially minors, especially toddlers if they want to do it later in life, let them when they are old enough to do the decision. that is my policy on such
Well this is amusing the jews of other nordic countries got together to wrote a letter to iceland's government saying how bad people they are for doing this and this will damn the jewish community living there forever http://jfst.se/nyheter/joint-statement-anti-circumcision-legislation-iceland/ >This letter might be perceived as meddling in Iceland’s internal affairs.

>>423365 It's not really an opinion though. There was a recent stink in the area because someone decided to go trolling on facebook. it ended with a defamation suit
oh i see well that's how it is some people have the compulsion to troll but not the sense to know how to do it safely.
of course trying to take people's constitutional rights is in vogue right now so maybe it was just a power play and they thought they could make it happen

>>423329 It's misleading to refer to fgm as "female circumcision", especially because it usually causes more problems.

Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
Recipe for Jalapeno Fudge does not include chocolate
FormerRei@mobile
>>423379 Yes But, fgm has a much larger impact on physical and mental health. It puts the people who receive it at risk for a wide variety of medical conditions, depending on what type was performed. I do understand why people refer to male circumcisions as "mutilation", but fgm often causes a general reduction in quality of life. While male circumcision in general does not.
Kirara 🚗
there are people that argue circumcision does in fact reduce quality of life
Well it doesn't really matter to me since I don't have a dog in the fight, but insistence on calling one one word and the other the other word kinda smells like an attempt at language control to me.
>>423382 Yes there are, but there is a much larger body of research supporting the statement "female genital mutilation reduces quality of life" than "circumcision causes a reduced quality of life". The fact that fgm can be things like "sewing the labia shut with thorns after the clitoris has been removed and leaving just a tiny hole for urine and period blood to leak out until they are old enough to have a child at which point it is opened somehow" While circumcision is just "the foreskin is cut off" Should be enough information for you to understand why one is generally considered to be mutilation and the other is depending on the country not considered mutilation.

It's fine. I'm having to move because I can't afford my flat and so I can't work nearby since this place / area is expensive for my pay. I'll be NEETin' it up for a bit and might actually go to the university
I got a place at 2 universities if I want to take them but one is in London which is way to expensive for me and the other is not quite the course I'd want to take but I can work with it. since it is after all just a BA and with an MA I can get closer to pure linguistics.
So I might be at university at the end of the year if I don't fuck up getting student fianance. I was thinking of going to Japan next month, because I don't have to worry about bills with having house and storing things at my little sisters for a bit.
They entry requirements aren't too high to be honest for these two universities. One is a christian college turned into a university. and the other is one with a foundation which you have to pass to get into to the real degree.

I don't know the finnish application for it but it refers to a further education beyond A-levels which aren't universities and are typically physical things like wood working, metal working etc they disappeared in large numbers in the UK since the 70s
Finnish education is divided between compulsory basic education which is from 7 year old to 15 basically 1-9 grades and then you can continue if you want to, into high school or lower level vocational education lasting 3 years on average too and from that you can then apply to universities or higher level vocational educations that last 3-5 years too well university is always 3 years for bachelor 2 for master, with 7 years time given to accomplish it, but with a lot of leeway

And I don't know how much you know about numerical methods for computing integrals, but larger *higher dimensional integrals require much more sample points for monte carlo methods. Like possibly proportional to a** *an For some a

Or maybe I'm thinking of non monte Carlo numerical integration methods. Anyways I did not fully understand the paper but I did find it very interesting.

Anyways, non trivial integrals of more than two dimensions become increasingly difficult to compute numerically as you go higher. So I found this paoee *paper to be really elegant because it converted some of them into a closed form which made them really easy to compute. I think actually a one dimensional integral was the end result. The paper was by one of my favorite mathematicians, Jonathan Borwein. Who is one of the leading experts on pi and also experimental mathematics. Which is a field I think I may go into after getting my physics degree. It basically consists of writing programs to do math stuff you have a hunch for but can't prove, then using statistics to support your hypothesis until you come up with a proof.

It's also a really young field and not very active. So I'm more likely to be able to do something significant.

oh man this pop team epic is the best show ever
FormerRei@mobile
Right?
Dutchy-chan
all these voice overs
FormerRei@mobile
Did you read the manga?
Dutchy-chan
I haven't no did you?
FormerRei@mobile
It's pretty good. YYeah i have. The anime does some of it differently, but the way it does it is absolutely in the spirit of the manga.
FormerRei@mobile
Also the manga is by the guy who did the "Honk Honk CHEEEEEEN!" comic.
Dutchy-chan
hah I can see how yeah
FormerRei@mobile
What computational software do you use? Maple, Mathematica, Matlab or like domain specific software packages?
FormerRei@mobile
Also if my questions are annoying just tell me. I haven't been able to go back to university yet so I try to sort of keep myself in an academic mindset by reading articles and asking people about their fields.

used to use matlab for some things, but it's been a while since I've needed it my friends who do chemical process engineering do use it a lot to solve some problems some other friends used some kind of particle modelling software, but I forgot the name sadly it was some FOSS tool that they ran on leenux

>>423764 I can probably guess it VEGAS, GAMESS, GAMESS UK , ORCA, NMD, VMD, GROMACS, Avogadro Fuck, now i nneed to look at a list. Wait, uhh is it molecular dynamics or reaction kinetics?
>>423771 Yep, I had move away since I can't afford rent where I live. But I'll be going to university later in the year so it'll be most of the year NEETing it up.
FormerRei@mobile
>>423769 Yes, it repeats twice Pay close attention though
>>423772 aw sorry to hear that maybe i'll get to see more of you though

Oh yeah My family might be doing a family vacation to Iceland this summer. We haven't gone on a family vacation anywhere except visits to relatives since like 2003. Also I've never left the US.
>>423774 For the first few weeks or months I might not have internet but I will be trying to secure a decent apartment in the next 3 months, I will be visiting family and staying with mom when she goes over to america so I'll not have much time at first to get a new place. I am thinking of going over to Japan too either next month or in april.
>>423777 Yeah for 3 months, although I will be in some pretty remote place.
>>423778 New Mexico. >>423780 it also like some mountain wilderness place. the owner of the house my mom is staying at owns acres of land
I am a little worried about visiting America though. I don't want to get shot at!
FormerRei@mobile
Fuck That's really far from me.
FormerRei@mobile
>>423779 It's really not that likely to happen. Although not wandering onto other people's land would probably be a good idea.
Kannagi
Far more likely tjam *than in the UK people are walking around with lethal weapons, that is pretty scary to think about.
FormerRei@mobile
>>423782 I'm not 100% sure but I don't think its much more likely for you to get shot here than it is for you to get stabbed in the uk. Unless your papers have been lying about the knife problems.
Well I be damned I ran into a "sultana" during eu4 session and went "huh, have therea ctually ever been female heads of state in any islam kingdom ever" and there actually were few, in the indonesian region
Hindus are prolly the least appreciated group in that game they have a very powerful religion, that grants you surprising bonuses depending on the deity of your choice not to mention being able to switch deities as your rulers change Man would that be abusable, if you could set up a republic there...
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
though then you wouldn't benefit from the lifelong bonuses you gain from the religion, which are the real deal
>>423817 you got that image from pol a few hours ago didn't you oh then he got it from pol i guess >>423823 yeah i'm just tired sorry >>423824 damn just forget this even happend
Is sometimes fun to see people post pics you have been posting that have an imagestamp makes you always think, did they take it from ehre or eslewhere *timestamp
>It's using pulleys in ways unknown what we know how pulleys work and what they can do they shoulda made up some other thing instead of pulleys that's silly
