Applied statistics
(mander.xyz)
That looks like applied statics to me.
It's quite possibly the most useful application that textbook will ever be used for, statistically speaking.
Almost certainly
There is a 98% (p=±2%) that you might need glasses.
From Wikipedia:
Statics is the branch of classical mechanicsthat is concerned with the analysis of force and torque acting on a physical system that does not experience an acceleration, but rather is in equilibrium with its environment.
So I reckon it was a pun
I'd give it a 50% chance of bogging off under the weight.
Then it would by dynamics
When you apply statistics to Windows you find big holes and lets a lot of bugs in.
It’s still wild to me that many parts of the developed world simply don't use screens on windows.
But from what I can tell its also mostly places where people don't even have AC because it simply never gets that hot.
Must be nice. (I don't have AC yet, but I'm an outlier in my area, and I hope to add it this year because a heat pump would be an absolute blessing even if I still need to use my gas furnace as backup)
Ah, I see they've reached the section on Window Functions...
this may or may not hold the window up for a while
There's a nonzero chance that poor bastard got a terse email from admin re: respect for one's academic utensils, etc. 🤮
The rest of us know that's a learnin' hole stretcher to guide the shovelfuls in more easily, not for wall holes.
This impure and I for one am here for it!!
There are statistics and then there are prise.
