drawing a square in thr corner doesn’t make it 90°

No, it doesn’t, but it does mean that, for the purposes of your 6th grade geometry question, you can assume the angle is a right angle. Even if it visible looks like 45°, if they put a square there, that’s 90.

More to the point though, a radius of a circle always meets the circumference at 90 degrees. All the squares in this problem are doing is telling you “this line, if it were continued, would be the radius of the incomplete circle”.

same as every example you’ve provided, have the working out be incidental to the goal

Fwiw the terminology often used here is “instrumental goal”. That is, a goal is instrumental if it is something someone tries to achieve in order to work towards their terminal goal. If my terminal goal is “win the soccer tournament”, one instrumental goal might be “be able to run a sub-50 minute 10 km”. And you can have instrumental goals to help reach the instrumental goals (this is my terminology, not a standard one, because I don’t know if there is a standard one, but I’ll call these a “secondary instrumental goal”). For example, a secondary instrumental goal to win the soccer tournament’s instrumental goal of run a sub-50 minute 10 km might be to run at least 30 km per week for 6 weeks.

Anyway, some of the sports I chose in my example were chosen specifically because of the grey area this creates. If my goal is to complete a marathon or a triathlon, is that my terminal goal? What if the reason I want to complete a marathon is to show myself that I can get physically fit and healthy? This is not uncommon, I’m pretty sure, especially among 40–60 year-olds. In that case, “get fit and healthy” is the terminal goal, and “complete a marathon” is only an instrumental goal, with a secondary instrumental goal of working out regularly. If my terminal goal is “get fit” and my secondary instrumental goal is “run frequently”, does it really matter if my primary instrumental goal is “run a marathon”?

I’m asking this sincerely, by the way. I’m sorry that other users are downvoting you, but I’m not. I think you’ve touched on an interesting nuance that I want to tease out.

I’m still a little lost on what does and does not count. You mentioned not wanting to run a treadmill, but what about running on a quiet street or a trail or path? What about if someone is training for a marathon, or to improve their 5k PB at their local Parkrun? Is that “working out for the sake of working out”? Or does having the extrinsic goal change the equation somehow? Does it change if instead of running, the sport they’re training for is triathlon? What if it’s weightlifting? Or they want to have sufficient fitness to be a valuable member of their casual Touch team?

Also the two Program Files folders that have existed since the switch to 64-bit systems.

And third-party software installers that install stuff into their own secret places. Like Steam games.

I found it just now in <5 minutes of searching.

The page existed for 3 hours in 2021, and again for 20 minutes in 2023. Looks like it may have been created especially for this screenshot.

Twitter would be the first place I’d expect to censor “consent”, since getting bought out by America’s favourite transphobe and serial abuser of power dynamics…

stg?

Raine, is that you?

Fwiw the user in question hasn’t posted since July 2023, and only ever did 11 comments and 3 posts.

Young Sheldon is a spin-off to one of the most infamously unfunny sitcoms of all time.

IaSiP is incredibly famous and adored online. I couldn’t even make it through one episode, myself.

St Denis I only know because my parents are obsessed with any medical show. It’s basically trying so hard to be Scrubs, but without the charm.

Describing Harley Quinn as a sitcom doesn’t sit well with me. It is great, though.

I haven’t even heard of any of the others.

This would make an excellent copypasta, if it isn’t already.

Unfortunately, dogs are bad at maths.

It seems to depend on who you ask. Teeth are not bones, absolutely, but I’ve seen sources that say they are part of the skeletal system, as well as sources that say they’re not.

The skeletal system definitely includes more than just bones, since ligaments and cartilage are definitely part of it. So where exactly the line is drawn is up to interpretation.

Well, I didn’t want to correct that because frankly “design is a function of graphics” is arguably true. The biggest problem with that notation is the possible implication that it’s only a function of graphics, which is obviously wrong, but as an informal notation I see no reason to insist it must be interpreted that way.

4e just used “squares” instead of 5 feet, but it, like 5e, used chebyshev distances.

Pathfinder 2e uses alternating diagonals though.

I’m afraid I don’t know what that means.

Design = graphics.

Or maybe Design(graphics).

I would say design ⊃ graphics.

Liberalism is pro- status quo

No, that’s conservatism. Liberalism is pro individual liberties. Which is today’s status quo, and so today liberals are conservative. But it’s not the definition. Which is what you seem to be implying it is with phrases like “by nature”.

Today, we live in a liberal hegemony. So liberals are conservative. At the time of the French revolution, liberals were fighting against absolute monarchy, and were extremely progressive as a result. If we were living under socialism, liberals would be radicals.

Oh, I see. That seems…very non-obvious, given it only refers to “ICE vehicles”, and a certain subset of ICE vehicles are a popular target for vandalism because of their association with the kind of person likely to be a fan of the ICE government department (and because of their even greater overall societal harm than regular vehicles).
