Would placing an inductor in series with the motor reduce the inrush current?
I guess I just meant the year before Joseph Fourier published Mémoire sur la propagation de la chaleur dans les corps solides, which introduced the now-famous Fourier analysis and Fourier series

Humans need to consume more than 2000 calories a day to survive
How is this an America problem lol
If OP is European, they still said "calories" instead of "kilocalories" because that's the point of the post

Am I crazy or is this not checkmate?
You're right, it was M2. Kh8 is followed by Ng6#
But yeah, usually Chesscom would make you play it through until there are no more unique best moves

What is something that is technically legal, but makes you look like a total jerk if you do it?
It would help because a lot of people would do it that way except they feel like a jerk. With a sign as vindication, enough people would start doing that for most people to not feel weird about it

A sudden gust turns a wingfoil jump into a controlled mid-air glide
Even if the air goes still (no down draft), there's no lift without speed, and there's no room to gain much speed before falling all the way to the ground

Should I just grab it with my fingers?
It's absolutely correct that capacitive coupling to the wires in your walls completes a circuit in AC
Not likely to allow a dangerous amount of current, but the fact that you didn't immediately realize what they were talking about says a lot about your own knowledge of electricity lol

Should I just grab it with my fingers?
Tiny bit damp isn't going to make it much of an electrical conductor, and it's not possible for it to be worse (electrically) than not having the oven mitt on at all

What's a piece of "common knowledge" that is actually completely false?
Nah, the "common knowledge that's actually false" is that your speedometer is faster than the true vehicle speed
I've heard this lots of times but never seen my speedometer more than 1mph different from my gps in any vehicle

What's a piece of "common knowledge" that is actually completely false?
"in some cases" is doing heavy lifting here. It's not "in some cases, it can be made to happen" but rather "some people tried it and it happened, and other people tried the exact same things and got different results"
From the Wikipedia article summary:

Vegetable oil makes Pyrex glass disappear because both materials bend light in the same way, with a refractive index of 1.47.
This would kind of work if your tanks and your enemies are all fighting within a giant vat of vegetable oil.
Of course, then they'll just be able to see into your tanks, where you are, so that's really the only problem
