Website for pirating books. A godsend for me during university, where I saved 100s of dollars per semester, while getting the books in a digital format which I prefer.

Foot-pound is not a unit of pressure, ignoring the fact that it’s a stupid non-metric unit.

Just pay people to be your shoppers and buy as much as they can for you. And give them a good salary for it. Hiring people is not giving it away, and they are buying the stuff for you. Or hire like a private concert with someone. So many things to spend money on.

No she isn’t? Macron is president until the next French presidential election in 2027.

Dutch and Danish are not the same language. So yeah, the Danish scientist published in Danish, not Dutch.

I had windows do a large update in the middle of an exam once. Like the major version number changes or something, took probably like an hour and a half. I was quite lucky with the exact timing and the fact that I am usually able to finish exams quickly as I did end up having half an hour for the exam, but it did make the whole situation a bit more spicy than necessary.

10/0 ≠ lim x->0+ 10/x

Or in other words, the thing you keep quoting does not apply in this case. Any number divided by zero is undefined, not positive infinity (or negative infinity for that matter).

Yessss, channel your inner Shrek.

Those are jokes.

In your last paragraph, most of the places you write watts you mean watt hours. Good reminder that Wh is a bad unit, since it’s too easy to confuse with watts.

The best part is the dependency on the function is_odd.

Is it really wheat that domesticated us?

As someone who does know about this field, and absolute despise Musk, that’s not quite true. SpaceX is very successful thanks to help from the US government, and despite the influence of Musk, but also because they are a team of very competent people who have actually innovated and pushed the boundaries of launch vehicles. To say they have nothing going for them and are being propped up by the government is not at all accurate, and they have been much more succesful than traditional government contractors.

Ohh, that reminds me of when I moved to Sweden. Their digital ID, bankID, is as the name suggests issued by your bank, not the government, even though it is used for all official authentication. And that includes… you guessed it, creating a bank account. So that was a real chicken and egg situation where it seemed impossible to be properly integrated into the Swedish system.

When putting in ambiguous inputs to WolframAlpha, it does its best to interpret it so that it’s can give an answer, and it shows you underneath how it interpreted it. That doesn’t mean there wasn’t any ambiguity to begin with.

Both of those screenshots, the input is a fraction, thereby removing the ambiguity. But when you use the division symbol, an ambiguity arises. This is why you should never, for any reason, use a division symbol.

I don’t think anyone says that. Rather people rightly point out that the Palestinians lived there and have lived there for hundreds of years already when the West just decided to say fuck em and create Israel, displacing and oppressing the Palestinians.

I think that’s the same in all European countries, at least it is in Denmark. I guess the old adage is true, the truth has a left wing bias.

Yes, let’s combat racism with more racism, way to go.
