I feel personally attacked by this!

Badger on the left just saw his healthcare bill. Badger on the right ate some bad beans and is contemplating the nature of regret.

I love the Lemmy vegan community - they are the second greatest shitposters around (fuckcars have the edge due to their expert ragebaiting).

“Oh so that’s where my remaining mental health and self esteem are!”

Beat me to it!

“Humans engaging in tongue combat to determine fitness of mate. Note the closed eyes, scientists believe this is because of how bloody this ritual could become; humans closed their eyes to keep the blood out.”

And they wonder why…

Damn, just saw this after posting the same link XD

Hi ho, hi ho, it’s down the mine you go.

Not toilet trained, and no wages gained!

Hihohiho hi ho, hi ho, it’s back down the hole you’ll go.

Now swing that pick you little di-

I think that’s enough Disney today

Heh, I did this once - mostly because 10+ PowerPoint animations really chug the university issue laptops, and I was presenting somewhere new (software is not your friend).

It was really 15 slides with about 20 animation steps on each - the students didn’t seem to hate seeing a set of fully worked maths problems with colour coding linking parts of the question to the resultant equation.

He’s looking up, and seeing the giant rain of sheep labelled “teaching load” and “marking AI generated essays” incoming.

Question sheets in Word - “Hello, and welcome to indent roulette”

Question sheets in LaTeX - “\item{} goes brr”

At this juncture, the advice below is not likely to help (if I’m in a boot loop that isn’t resolving, repair install or reinstall are the options I go for). Might work if you use a live environment though!

Possibly look through your package manager logs -

If you can get that dumped, you might be able to spot what’s missing and try manually re-installing it, or at least get a list of all the things you need to reinstall.

Resits… So many resits…

Students who I’ve never seen before asking how to pass my course.

Thanks for the bedtime reading!

I mostly deal with foundations of analysis, so this could be handy.

Reals are just point cores of dressed Cauchy sequences of naturals (think of it as a continually constructed set of narrowing intervals “homing in” on the real being constructed). The intervals shrink at the same rate generally.

1!=0.999 iff we can find an n, such that the intervals no longer overlap at that n. This would imply a layer of absolute infinite thinness has to exist, and so we have reached a contradiction as it would have to have a width smaller than every positive real (there is no smallest real >0).

Therefore 0.999…=1.

However, we can argue that 1 is not identity to 0.999… quite easily as they are not the same thing.

This does argue that this only works in an extensional setting (which is the norm for most mathematics).

Wow… They want to give AI even more mental illness and crippling imposter syndrome to make it an expert in one niche field?

Sounds like primary school drop-out level thinking to me.

Capitalists AND Reviewer 2… Never underestimate the power of Reviewer 2 in publication!

Mathematics Lecturer (just teaching foundation mind).

It’s far more fun than people think, but with next to no real holidays (summer is actually quite busy). Also it sucked being on temporary contract, because you had no idea if you’d have work in 12 months no matter how good you were.
