I absolutely need to download the PDF of http://www.famaf.unc.edu.ar/~dfernandez/practico3_2011.pdf . Unfortunately the whole website is down for at least 1 day and I suspect it will be down for the next days.

By the way my 2 friends that take the courses are about 400 km away from me and without their computers and the 2 last days were days where nobody works so my university is closed and no one would answer any email.
I really don't know what solved the problem, but it's amazing.
 
Sorry if 'Profile Badge' is not the correct term.

Last night I had four docs with a red circle, one with blue. When I closed the blue and opened it again it was red. Today I have 3...
Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
