You are welcome to repost it if youd like.. but even if you happen to have one article that supports a 0.01% intersex figure that would at best make it an exception to the body of literature and wouldnt solve the problem that intersex is not defined as a hard line and thus cant be given any one definitive figure, it just depends on where a particular study decides to define the line for its data nothing more.

Thats the problem with continuous distributions in general.. its like saying "how many water samples were hot".. well each study might defne hot as having a different temperature threshold and thus get different values because "hot" much like "intersex" doesnt have a strictly defined point where that line is being crossed and as such it must be defined on a per-study basis.

but again, share the peer-reviewed study if you wish I dont mind looking.

@meowski

Your numbers arent in line at all with those given by medical doctors or experts, personal expiernce or anything else I know.. not even **close** to 0.01% even in the most conservative accepted numbers (which admitidly there is a range since there is no hard line where intersex starts)..

calling intersex a birth defect is fine and all but it really adds nothing to the conversation or to the fact that it is intersexed whether you want to call it a birth defect or not.

your mostly relying on word play by the looks of it to fabricate new numbers you like better.

Ok that wasnt really that much more complicated, but not the way I would have done it.. not sure mine is any easier though, probably same complexity.

@seek

@mur2501

I have a feeling this is going to be several times more complicated than it needs to be.

@seek

im literally just sitting here with my converted hand-held 10kV - 20kV spark gap generator with a high voltage diode and capacitor wired up and im repeatedly charging it to a few 10kV then discharging it by shorting it and watching it go flash-bang over and over...

I am easily amused.

@mur2501

I havent worked it out to the end, but its hard to see why not once you transform it in the way I illustrated. everything left are rectangles and triangles with more than enough sides given to solve them all...

@seek

@seek

Was I supposed to be solving the geometry problem... I just wanted to point out how to solve it for seek, I wasnt working on getting the final answer (though should not be hard to go from the hint I gave to the final answer).

@mur2501

@meowski

Youll have to be specific about the article, I only recall one off topic one that was limited to only primary sex determination and not sex as a whole. Could have been muted when you shared it though.

As for calling it continuous.. sounds like you are thinking of uniform, a continuous function is not related to a uniform function.

@meowski

I'm not sure if your able to engage in a productive way on that discussion, but if you want to try I dont mind giving it a second go (I'm all for giving people or interactions a second chance).

It would be more accurately described as a bimodal continuous distribution with low variance where the male and female points would be at the two modes of the bimodal distribution.

@mur2501

All the labeled angles and sides are directly inferred/known.. a+b is 90 degreesb+c is 90, all other angles on either side of the internal lines are 90, and the others are given lengths (the greeks).. from there is all just simple trig more or less.

@seek

@mur2501

Here ya go, just slide those lines over, their length and angles wont change, and now its all very simple to solve one triangle at a time

@seek

@mur2501

not something i could do in my head.. but at first glance I think i can see the steps to solve it.. doesnt look too hard. Just slide the two angled semi-horizontal lines so they meet at the joint on the right (possible since their sides are parallel) and then you form a triangle with one angle known and two lengths. You can then find the other side and from there its easy to find the rest of the shapes created.

@seek

@mur2501

That looks easy, are the numbers lengths or angles? i presume lengths.

@seek

@seek no it was nothing noteworthy and entierly accidental. I had a 400kV power supply that runs off 5V input.. Like i fool I thought it was a 12V input and hooked a 12.7V supply up to it. This boosted it to around a megavolt and had spectacular huge sparks before frying the coil after about 5 seconds... If i knew it was going to happen i would have had a spare pair of underwear with me and been prepared.

WOOT! my 20kV diodes just arrived.. time to solder one to a 40kV capacitor and get out my high voltage generator and see how close to death i can come this time (the 1 megavolt incident earlier was a bit scary considering i was expecting a few 100kV at most)

@crunklord420

Sorry I dont speak schizo, I stopped reading like a sentence.. you literally dont even know how to say anything that has even a little value to it. I do kinda feel bad for you, but I also know nothing I can say or do to help.. So you just stay triggered and rant all you want, but your just wasting your time tagging me, I wont waste my time reading schizo triggered bullshit, and if you keep taging and insisting ill just mute you again.

@meowski

Wouldnt be the first time I missed a topic. I'm ok missing the occasional topic if it means I'm not listening to people making noise and wasting my time thats find by me.

The thing about doing actual science/engineering is that I've got some pretty cool stuff to work onmost of the time. So im more likely to feel i missed out wasting time on some person making noise and saying nothing insightful or useful rather than actually **doing** science. a good conversation with value and some mutual respect (or atleast productivity and meaningful exchange) might be worth a few minutes away from my projects.

All about priorities. I'd rather be doing science than arguing with people with a low SNR (signal to noise ratio).
