Ideally? Have public transport that runs to these national parks. Japan has train stations that bring you right up to the foot of a mountain – I’m almost very certain that one train station requires less space than a carpark (thinking in terms of capacity here). Of course this requires a massive revamp in infrastructure, but one can wish. There are also some buses that feed into these parks, which is fantastic, give me more! As a tourist, I’ll gladly give these buses more money than whatever car rental company I have to use.

P. S. I think the immediate short-circuiting to “guess we won’t have forests” is kinda worrying.

To be fair, the national parks are really beautiful. But you need a car to even reach these parks, then drive into a massive parking lot – really depressing.

Boggles my mind when people claim that using mechanic present in the game is not playing the game “as intended”.

Who do you think put the feature there? The pesky magical game dev that spawns at 2 am to code in a mimic tear?

I tried behind the bastards, and really liked the first few (older?) episodes. But it soon felt too shallow, especially when the main host isn’t speaking – imo the other guests were only there to provide quips. Personal opinion, of course. Maybe this got better?

I switched over to QAA to scratch this itch for laughing at conspiracy theorists.

Seconded! They often invite guests over as well, who are pretty well versed in their own field. Funny British humour with 4 facts in an hour? Sign me up

Bro’s just upset they forgot the gender of a table in Duolingo French. Let them have it.

This is exactly what Rowling is afraid of

Holy shit that’s insanely cool actually. But yea academia does get kinda ridiculous sometimes, I’m glad you found your passion for music instead!

Thanks for the response! Honestly wasn’t expecting any. I understand what you’re saying as a pure student would, but could you explain what you mean by “a space is a just an n-dimensional graph”?

Would the vertices map to some coordinate in space? Or am I completely misunderstanding.

Are you a post-doc now? If so, congrats! If you dont mind me asking, what exactly was your research about (not a physics/mathy person so ELI5 would be appreciated)

I say openly that I’m bad at math because I cannot, even with intense effort, intuit concepts that are laid out as pure mathematical expressions. Why do graphs have eigenvectors? What does that even look like?!
