SCIENCE!

[allpoints@mstdn.social]

@cptbutton @BorisBarbour @StefanEJones it's actually Positionraptor/Timeraptor.

[violanders@mastodon.nu]

@StefanEJones
This implies the existence of an acceleraptor.

J'ai cru que c'était un dessein de @gee en le voyant apparaître dans ma TL

Actually that should be distanceraptor/time because otherwise the raptors cancel each other out...

@StefanEJones

the two raptors cancelling each other:

@StefanEJones I can hear my science teacher screaming that it's actually a vector X-D

@StefanEJones the face on that guy just made my morning! :))

@StefanEJones Don't overthink it? Challenge accepted.

*revs up the Acceleraptor*

@tezoatlipoca @efi @ScriptFanix @StefanEJones time(raptor) comes for us all

[kwf@social.afront.org]

@StefanEJones technically the raptors would cancel out?

[matildalove@wetdry.world]

@StefanEJones the component raptors are seldom discussed since they post no threat individually: the distanceraptor can reach you anywhere on the planet, but only the timeraptor knows when to show up.

[stefanejones@dice.camp]

@kwf I've lost track of how many people pointed this out.

[kwf@social.afront.org]

@StefanEJones I will freely admit that I'm not fun at parties.

[dalias@hachyderm.io]

@StefanEJones Should be distanceraptor/time.

[glasspusher@beige.party]

@TheLancashireman @StefanEJones

Being more picky, velocity is a vector

@Aphelie_epi_dor

[chris_e_simpson@hachyderm.io]

@StefanEJones @kwf and they are all wrong. If this was Seventeen / Sixteen you wouldn't say "duh, the teens cancel each other out"

[dpnash@c.im]

@violanders @StefanEJones

Acceleraptors imply Jerkraptors.
Jerkraptors imply Snapraptors.

[violanders@mastodon.nu]

@dpnash
The Crackleraptors and Popraptors are mostly a theoretical concept, though.
