I know some people in real life that thought Colbert's "Republican" character was genuine and not satire. It's sad

I imagine terminal velocity with no air resistance would be 9.8m/s/s. I was saying that the feather reaches terminal velocity more quickly than a bowling ball in non-vacuum conditions

There are people that think this post is wrong because the equation is wrong or due to a lack of units

The equation for cylindrical volume is correct (circular area multipled by height).

And the units are unimportant (can be described as cubed units)

The issue is that Pi is a constant. Constants and variables are different things.

Other examples of constants: 1, 24, 7, -1 ... Etc.

Saying Pi = 5 is like saying 1 = 5 ... Both Pi and numbers like 1,2,3, etc. have a constant (non-varying) value.

You can't reassign a value on a constant. It's like me sticking up 3 fingers and claiming there are 5 fingers there.

Pretty sure that was Dale Earnhardt (think that's how it's spelled). He was a famous NASCAR racer

I'd call myself adequate with PowerShell, but I've never seen this before. Is hh an alias, or is hh a binary?

Edit: it appears hh.exe is the compiled html help viewer. Neat

This 100%. I liked bash scripting when I was in college. Took some time to actually learn powershell, and it's been amazing. Steep learning curve in the beginning, but it's worth it

Edit: I had also meant to mention the fact that powershell definitely feels a little similar to bash. I mean, not quite the same. Powershell is more object oriented, whereas bash is more text oriented. Powershell for structured data is nice.
