Let's help to stop dispersity on topics

Like many others, i sort r/cc by new and unfortunately pretty often i see the same info, the same subject and even from the same source (this last problem is already taken care of), just yesterday i saw the news of mark cuban accepting DOGE for mavericks tickets 7-8 TIMES in less than 24 hours.

I know there's a bot for duplicated links but not for duplicated topics, this what I'm proposing as a way to reduce dispersity on the matter:

Add a flair to the report button, and when a certain amount of redditors report that post as repost/duplicate topic, then a mod can check if its true or trust redditors and do it automatically, then a bot can automatically remove the post, and at the same time send to op a message that its was a repost from earlier in matter of the subject and send the link so op can contribute to the subject in 1st post.

This can significantly reduce dispersion of information in the same topic, helping everyone looking for info abut that

Precise Control of Both Dispersity and Molecular Weight Distribution Shape by Polymer Blending

The breadth and the shape of molecular weight distributions can significantly influence fundamental polymer properties that are critical for various applications. However, current approaches require the extensive synthesis of multiple polymers, are limited in dispersity precision and are typically incapable of simultaneously controlling both the dispersity and the shape of molecular weight distributions. Here we report a simplified approach, whereby on mixing two polymers (one of high Đ and one of low Đ), any intermediate dispersity value can be obtained (e.g. from 1.08 to 1.84). Unrivalled precision is achieved, with dispersity values obtained to even the nearest 0.01 (e.g. 1.37β†’1.38β†’1.39β†’1.40β†’1.41β†’1.42β†’1.43β†’1.44β†’1.45), while maintaining fairly monomodal molecular weight distributions. This approach was also employed to control the shape of molecular weight distributions and to obtain diblock copolymers with high dispersity accuracy. The straightforward nature of our methodology alongside its compatibility with a wide range of polymerisation protocols (e.g. ATRP, RAFT), significantly expands the toolbox of tailored polymeric materials and renders them accessible to all researchers.

Volatility, Variance, Dispersion, Oh my!

Introduction

I have been asked to jot down some thoughts on variance by u/gherkinit and u/Criand

Variance/co-variance/volatility/simple variance/synthetic variance swaps, a year ago I had no idea what these were, over the past 3 months I and others have been diving into this black hole. u/MauerAstronaut has dug as deep on this as I have he is my VOLquant wanna be twin and a good friend, he has already had some post on the subject I highly recommend reading them before reading this. This subject is broad and extremely complex, the more reading the better here, without further delay let me share some thoughts.

Let me preface by first saying this post may not be for everyone, some of it may be slight speculation based off of actual events and or positions reported. Even though I will go into detail about being "long variance" it is hard to find breadcrumbs of long variance because the portfolio of options to be built as a hedge are in fact sold, or in common terms "short", meaning these positions are usually not reported limiting the evidence left. That being said those that are "short variance" do leave similar hedging breadcrumbs, that is what has led me here. Obligatory "this isn't advice" if you think it is, I feel terribly sorry for you.

Brief Breakdown and Effects

First thing is first, what is a variance swap? In simple terms it is a bet on volatility. The seller is going to receive a fixed payment called the "fair variance strike as vol" which is a fancy way of saying annualized implied volatility over a period of time (usually 30,60,90 days). The volatility strike is going to be calculated and agreed upon inception, that is going to be the fixed payment that the seller receives upon maturity. The opposite side of the trade is the buyer, the buyer is going to receive "realized variance" payment on maturity, meaning that it is going to get paid based on the volatility realized during the agreed upon period.

Here is an illustration showing the "vanilla" variance trade. Note the word "vanilla" not all trades are done this way:

You can manipulate dust. Form it into constructs. Disperse it. Move it.

Nebula:

"a cloud of gas and dust in outer space, visible in the night sky either as an indistinct bright patch or as a dark silhouette against other luminous matter."

Comet:

"Comets are frozen leftovers from the formation of the solar system composed ofΒ dust, rock, and ices."

Stars:

"Stars areΒ born within the clouds of dust and scattered throughout most galaxies. A familiar example of such as a dust cloud is the Orion Nebula. Turbulence deep within these clouds gives rise to knots with sufficient mass that the gas and dust can begin to collapse under its own gravitational attraction."

" The National Science Foundation-funded researchers found that Earth's atmosphere containsΒ 17 million metric tonsΒ of coarse dust -- the equivalent of 17 million elephants, or the mass of every person in America, put together."

Dispersion on Italian BBs don't make any sense

Guns can't overmatch above 26mm, they reload slow, they lack damage, they are completely useless against DDs, and on top of all that these guns have the worst dispersion, there is. Buff sigma or dispersion, maybe both actually. We can argue about higher tiers but anything below T8 is an absolute "joke" . There is absolutely 0 reason for them to have dispersion this bad. To call them trash tier would be insulting to trashes.

Medved (w/ Rapid Dispersal) better than M37A3?

I know this is heresy since M37A3 is pretty much assumed to be the best shotgun by most players, but I can't help feeling the Medved with the Rapid Dispersal internal magazine attachment is better...

The Rapid Dispersal attachment gives you an effective 65% reduction on reload speed. This comes from the 25% base and the 4 stacks of 10% you get for each pellet that connected. With two buckshots fired, you're guaranteed at least 4 stacks.

With this setup, the Medved's reload is so fast that the gun fires continuously**.** The pause between reloads is the same that between the two loaded shots. The Medved also has a slightly higher RoF than the M37A3 (no pump animation), and a slightly tighter spread.

Not having to worry about the long reload animation on the pump is a real asset in most combat situations. Combat against Xenos is continuous; they never give you a break.
