Just so you are aware, recent measurements by either JWST or Hubble (I don’t remember which,) seem to indicate that expansion might be slowing, but the paper was basically saying, “hey, we found an anomaly, more data and research required.”
I would agree that using CS as a way to not take a foreign language is some utter bullshit. The reason I compare it to linguistics, not a language, is that most of coding seems to be figuring out the correct syntax to tell the machine what you actually want it to do. There’s actually very little in the way of mathematics, or even arithmetic, in CS, so I find the widespread comparison to be less than helpful.
Looks an awful lot like a cartoon version of the 1940s-1950s tractor that my grandparents had on the farm.
The app “5 calls” is free, free of ads, and free of tracking. It will provide you with the phone numbers and emails of your representatives and senators. It will also provide you scripts so that you can speak directly on each potential topic. You can also set up daily, weekly, or monthly notifications to remind you.
I remember seeing an article years ago around 2000-2002 era. They claimed that the 56 retirement age was because of heart attacks and other stress/age related medical issues. Basically you don’t want Lesley Neilson having a heart attack while quipping jokes at you over the air.
To be fair, Algebra and Trig are mostly just stepping stones that are needed to understand Calculus. Calculus is the easy way to calculate curves, which you do instinctively. If you’ve ever thrown a ball, gone bowling, or driven a car you used calculus, just unknowingly, and, most likely, with poor precision.
Or the last remaining black hole goes Big Bang. Either one could work.
I just noticed during my TA work that when most students were having issues in the more advanced maths, that their fundamental issue was a misunderstanding of fractions and decimals. Once I got them to understand how those two relate to each other, they started understand the rest of the math. The fractions in algebra are generally an entire term in the equation. The other issue that kids had was getting them to stop thinking literally about distinct numbers, and getting them to think about the concept of numbers.
I think the other guy was saying that calculus makes the mathematics of curves a whole lot simpler than algebra does, but that’s a weird way to describe that.
Having flirted with the education system of the US and having two parents with degrees in education, I can honestly and wholeheartedly say that I have no clue how to fix how math is taught in this country, just that the way we do it seems fundamentally broken right around 4th to 5th grade.
I was quoting you. I am musically and artistically inclined. I wouldn’t call myself a musician, I’m just a proficient singer and can play at a performance level with almost every instrument. I’m also just a tech guy, not really a computer guy. Really I have spent the last 20 years making myself a jack of all trades and a master of a few.
I was mostly studying all that because I have ADD, and no one tried to stop me, lol. I keep doing it because books are free.
I suspect you’re better at math than you give yourself credit for. Most Americans that are “bad at math,” weren’t taught fractions properly and without that, none of the rest (Algebra, Trig, Calc, Number Theory, etc.) could possibly make any sense. Geometry is really the only mathematics that you can do without understanding fractions, and that makes sense since we were using Geometry to build buildings for millenia before anyone did a fraction to decimal conversion.
I was a musician, and math was my very worst subject
How? I majored in Music Education and Computer Science, and minored in Psychology and Physics. I did that specifically because I thought Music, Physics, and Computer Science were all just math. I was correct about the first two. I would call CS linguistics, not math. The psych explains how the first two are math.
Nothing. Forever.
Either that, or we find out that the oscillating universe theory was correct.
Android is Google, not MS. Not much better.
Well that was a shit thing for him to do. One of the reasons I got the game is that my younger brother was 9 and youngest was 4. I also got a third controller and the 4 controller adapter.
I played Poppoi, younger bro got Marle, and youngest bro was given the sword boy and told where to go. Younger bro got quite good as the healer.
The three of us got all the spells to level 8:99, and yes, I do mean ALL. We also got all the extra weapon orbs out of the Mana Fortress, though I found out later that we did miss some really nice weapon and armor drops before the thing takes off.
Secret of Mana. I was 12, and went and worked under the table stripping tobacco. The game was well worth what I paid, the job wasn’t.
They also were on their way somewhere else, and the Emperor, and the imperium at large set up the Astronomicon, which is basically a giant beacon to the bugs that screams “there’s food here!”
Were it not for the imperium, that particular version of the milky way wouldn’t be nearly as fucked as it is, but it would still be pretty fucked because Slannesh would still have been born.
Watch / listen to “If The Emperor had a Text To Speech.” It is a really good non canon primer for the world. It wasn’t made by GW, and so the creators abandoned that series a few years ago when GW changed their licence agreement.
It is about 90% canon, as in, if the Emperor could routinely talk to anyone, he would start unfucking The Imperium, post haste. The current Imperium is nothing like what he was trying to make.
My grandmother, as well as The Gospel of Thomas, IIRC. It’s somewhere in The Apocrypha, I remember reading it in Catholic school
No the fuck it didn’t. That page is wrong. The full quote is “The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb.” Meaning that you can choose your family as an adult, and should do so with care and consideration.
That’s because everyone remembers that particular saying incorrectly, similarly to “a few bad apples,” or “the blood is thicker than water.” Everything and every saying is being twisted to mean exactly opposite what it should be to protect the pedophile capitalists that own everything.
Ungoliant says, “yes.”
