You're referring to the fictitious centrifugal force [0] which is actually a minor change in inertia—very much out shined by the centripetal force of gravity. For example, on earth if you weigh 200 lbs on the North Pole, you'd weigh about 199lbs on the equator. On the moon, this tiny effect would be wiped out by gravity.
Your example with the North Pole refers to the centrifugal force from the Earth spinning on its axis. But the relevant centrifugal force here is not the one from the Moon spinning on its axis, but rather the one from the Moon orbiting the Earth.
But in any case, you can think about the whole thing without considering centrifugal force. If the Moon wasn't orbiting but rather in freefall towards us, then the Earth would continue to have two tides right up until the moment it hit us.
The point is simply that gravity weakens with distance. So the pull of the Earth on the near side of the Moon is slightly stronger than the pull of the Earth on the Moon's centre. And the Earth's pull on the far side of the Moon is slightly weaker than the pull of the Earth on the Moon's centre. So if we consider the near and far regions of the Moon relative to whatever the Moon is doing on net, it will be as though the near side is being pulled towards the Earth and the far side is being pushed away.
Trains are fine for inter-city traffic > 20 km or so, below that, if you can, take a bicycle. It is a much better solution than a train for door-to-door.
I have helped multiple friends into government housing. Housing didn't suddenly cure their addictions or absolve them of mental health problems. It doesn't remove the victim mindset. Resources such as education and work can only be done if the individual is prepared to do it. But we don't have good resources, therefore the problems are cyclical.
Trusting the word of people is not representative of what they actually do. All of these people claimed to want X but make no effort towards it. People lie, especially to themselves.
Yeah. I liked it when I used it, but it's not actually an emacs replacement in a general sense. There's a much smaller community and set of extensions (plug-ins in their term, packages in emacs). It was pleasant to use as a notebook front-end with Maxima and Octave when I used them.
The productive write the most about productivity, it turns out.
I'll say that for me, I hopped across note and productivity apps until I switched to emacs/org-mode. It has not made me wildly more productive, but it has (or can have) any feature other programs offer, so there is no productivity FOMO when I learn about new programs.
See, in my opinion, the issue with every org-mode suggestion is that it assumes productivity is only tied to being sitting down on your computer. Would I really need to grab my laptop to note that I did grocery or cleaned my house?
That is a huge "living paycheck to paycheck" upcharge!
I get the incentive, but considering how financial planning can be most vital to folks with spotty income, I'd strongly encourage you to bring the price of the monthly plan down. Or perhaps a bare-bones "free" tier folks can use between paid months?
Yep, I agree, it's a pretty big upcharge. That's precisely why our 'free tier' is the 'no account' option (https://ufincs.com/noaccount). I'm not kidding when I say it's the full version of uFincs; the only (real) difference is that you don't have an account to sync to. And if you make sure to never log out (or take the time to export/import your data every time), then you can basically simulate having an account. It's just a free tier of 'inconvenience' rather than 'features' or some such.
But yeah, there's definitely some pricing psychology at play there. Thanks for taking the time to leave some feedback!
A not-anti-capitalist socialist is not a socialist. TLDR: Capitalism is when production is determined by people holding capital. Socialism is when production is determined by the members of society. So the question being, should an economy be democratic or run by the rich.So long as socialists workers work democratically, there is no hypocrisy in earning money.
On the other hand, leveraging the network effect to form a monopoly which compromises privacy and user security by coordinating with state aggressors around the globe...probably more unethical than controlling the software running on your own device?
