There's an "A in analysis" joke there somewhere...nuuskur said:Max points in math analysis exam!

The real questions are far more basic: Is it discrete? Which degree of separation does the exam have? Is there a closure to Analysis?WWGD said:Maybe the Analysis exam is not compact so there may not be a max? Or maybe his real name is Max.

Avocados are finally back in season. Or something. They're 3 for a dollar, which is what I consider the acceptable price.
They're actually always available, but for reasons unknown to me, there are months where they cost a dollar each.
I really miss New England sometimes because apples are so plentiful there, in the fall, anyway, you can get lots for cheap (I'm talking 'as-if-they-grew-on-trees' cheap).

A propos New England. The avocado price will likely increase until Feb. 7th. They will be probably very cheap again on the 8th.zoobyshoe said:Avocados are finally back in season. Or something. They're 3 for a dollar, which is what I consider the acceptable price.

I see, avocado day. Some 20+ people play while around 80 million people gorge themselves -- my kind of party.fresh_42 said:Nope. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/31/avocado-consumption-super-bowl_n_2593831.html .

Mangoes are delicious but at $5 a pop, who can even justify buying them?

I guess that pretty much explains why they've gone up in price around here, in general. They're getting exported more and more to the rest of the country. Used to be you could find them in some markets here @6 for a dollar, but I haven't seen that in a long time.fresh_42 said:Nope. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/31/avocado-consumption-super-bowl_n_2593831.html .

I'm not a fan of the mango. Nor do I like the pomegranate. I also have little use for the lime.Sirsh said:Mangoes are delicious but at $5 a pop, who can even justify buying them?

Whaaat so cheap? Here they are about 2 dollars for one piece usually, now about a dollar when it's their season.zoobyshoe said:Avocados are finally back in season. Or something. They're 3 for a dollar, which is what I consider the acceptable price.

Wow, and then they had the issue with Fogle, who was their spokesman. What a great reputation they are creating for themselves.Astronuc said:One of the World's Most Wanted Criminals Found Working at a Subway Restaurant in the UK

Vaguely -related, it seems they are developing (technologically) flexible fabric for shirts whose composition will change to adapt to the weather conditions and to those of the person wearing them. This is why I consider actual science more interesting than science fiction. EDIT: Imagine what else could be done: maybe a shirt with (bendable) microchips could also analyze the person's chemistry and figure out which chemicals a person is short in, lacking in, etc. Pretty insane.
