It seems this Jacob Barnett kid has a twitter account as well: https://twitter.com/PwningEinstein Yeah... it's not making him look any smarter. :biggrin:

I came up with a system that I believe allows one to win at roulette in the long run but I'm not 100% sure that it's valid (I haven't tested it in practice) and I want to share the basic idea here and see if any of you guys can tell me why it is wrong or if there is anything to it. To...

Why would you "wake up" in either location? If the machine destroys you then doesn't that end your consciousness? I think both of the copies will think they are you and have all your memories up to that point but I don't see how your consciousness would continue in either one.

I don't know if this applies to you or not but one thing I'd suggest is to make sure you won't have to start paying back student loans if you take a semester off.

disregardthat, do you believe there is such a thing as objective truths? Or do you think things can only be true to people? I'm having trouble understanding your objections.

Those phrases all sound kind of weird to me. Personally, I'd just say he majored in physics.

Yes, I'd at least try it. Sounds interesting.

I'd say Full House is the perfect example for me. I used to love watching it when I was little but now when I see it it just seems painfully bad.

Can't the base 10 system we commonly use relay an infinite amount of information already? There's no limit to how many digits a number can have. I don't understand where the alleged limitations lie.

I don't think it's cheating. I don't really see how your professor can stop you from purchasing it if it's a product on the market. I think it's a good thing to be able to make sure your answers are correct just so you don't go on thinking something you did wrong was right. You don't learn...

Thanks for the encouragement. Yeah, that's not really the name of the school I just kept it anonymous because I was saying relatively bad things about it and I didn't want to publicly bash a school. Especially when I'm not entirely sure I know what I'm talking about. I'll PM you the name of the...

Hello Jack, I do understand the importance of having a good understanding of the material, and I should clarify that I have gotten A's in courses such as Calculus I and Calculus II. When it comes to my major I try not to mess around and I am not intending to be a C student when it comes to...

Hi, I'm an undergraduate math major who needs some advice. I've been going to a local community college for the past 4 years and am just now getting enough credits for my associates. Now, I'm looking to transfer but I'm not really sure what I should do. You see, my GPA is laughably low (2.6...

Wow, I doubt I'd wear those clothes even if I got them for free, and there's no way I'd spend over $50 on them.

I've always thought that if plants were sentient they would just be bored to death all the time. Luckily for plants I don't believe they really are. :)
