UmbralRaptop: no, what I find remarkable is that Li7 exists in sufficient abundance to be meaningful fuel (also that something "only" ~65 Jupiter masses can initiate fusion, for that matter, but that's less odd).

UmbralRaptop: Li7 seems like it should be an incredibly rare primordial nuclide, and brown dwarfs feel like they should've accreted esrly.
<bofh>

<bofh>
OTOH "high-metallicity" stars apparently acquirex nearly all of their metal content at the start, not as a result of high-mass fusion, which is another result that is hard for my mind to come to terms with.

bofh: the numbers of observations for the planets are rather different (three pages of tables for b down to 7 observations for h), so I'm trying to prevent the optimizer from screwing up any planet completely

also, "let A be a ring, and 𝔞 a subset of A. we say that 𝔞 is a left ideal of A if \forall a \in 𝔞, ..."

bofh: PosterRaptor: you have xy the coordinates in the xy plane of the sky, xy the arbitrary orbital elements modified from a polish paper and which have a cosine and sine in them respectively, and xy the inputs and outputs of some quadratic minimization thing (y being χ² and x being a or M)

^actual line from a math assignment I had.

bofh: no but that is fine

they are different as

the first two xys have indices that correspond to the planets, the third has 1,2,3

bofh: aάαåąᾰ

PosterRaptor: that would be better than this mess
<egg>
or use CJK ideographs
<egg>
whatever
<egg>
bofh: also I don't understand how they do 14 integrations in 3.3.1 and not 21
<egg>
hm wait maybe i do?
<egg>
but it says "for each planet in a serial way." so no
<egg>
or maybe they mean that the 1,2,3 is serial?
<egg>
but that makes even less sense, *those* are independent

Proposal for a "small" telescope in orbit to take high resolution spectra (and simultaneous photometry) to find earthlike planets.
<PosterRaptor>
"earthlike" >_>
<egg>
PosterRaptor: s/"s.*"/smol/
<Qboid>
egg thinks PosterRaptor meant to say: Proposal for a smol telescope in orbit to take high resolution spectra (and simultaneous photometry) to find earthlike planets.
<egg>
bofh: so the xy for the custom elements comes from the poles

except the poles don't use the square root of the eggscentricity, just the eggscentricity itself

PosterRaptor: I don't know, I still haven't figured out how you pronounce it
<PosterRaptor>
bofh: glad to see that it eggsists.
<egg>
I would say [smɔl] for smol and [smoːl] for small but then the OED somehow says [smɔːl] for small and has a sound sample that sounds like [smoːl] and i am confused
