As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

According Japa's profile, he is 28 years old. Therefore, we can deduce that Japas double in number every 28 years, and that enables us to predict the number of Japas in existence at any given time.
As you can see on this chart, by the next century there will be 16 Japas in existence!
That's absurd. First of all, the assumption that the reproductive interval is 28 years is unfounded. A more sensible one would have Japa reach reproductive age at 28, and then continue to reproduce at a steady rate of #1 offspring per year.
Once the new Japas reach the empirically tested reproductive age, they make more Japas, and so on.
The correct extrapolation looks like this:
reaching 7910 Japas by the end of the century.
But what about the idea that multiple Japas might be born per yearly Japa? I suggest just trying to normalise the chance that two or even three Japas might be produced and go with 1.2 Japas are made by each Japa each year after they reach the 28 year mark.

Additionally, your second graph is several years too short, as it doesn't go above 9000.

GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION OF MATERIAL ELASTICITY

EDIT: oh my god there's a maximum fracture value given shear_at_yield and I never realized it until I played around with this thing AWESOME

EDIT 2: Wait no it's just that DF completely ignores the part of the stress-strain curve past yield

Got a loaf of peanut butter s'more bread going, although after popping it into the oven I remembered that one of my roommates is mildly allergic to peanuts, so I suppose I'll be bringing this sucker into the office and washing the pan with extra thoroughness and soap.

EDIT: I'm just glad I decided that butter pecan wouldn't be as tasty, because that turns out to be a life-threatening allergy.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

It's the Japocalypse.


In other news: I managed to sort stuff out, so I get paid in three days. Yay money!
And I still have drinking money for tomorrow! And the next day! And possibly the day after that depending on whether I'm alive! :D


Edit: Another Happy: I just saw the teaser trailer for season two of True Detective!
I still have very little idea what it's going to be like or how it's possibly going to follow the mammoth act of Season One, but Colin Farrell was wearing a bolo tie so I like it already. Bolo ties are adorable.

In other news, all of the Macross franchise has been cleared for official English translation, the X-Men will be appearing in the next Avengersverse film, and Youtube has stopped heeding DMCA takedown notices.

Single most exciting piece of game news today. Much yes.
