ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange)

I guess I should refrain from writing text in my own language using non-ASCII symbols due to American exceptionalism and piety.

NixOS and ext4 user here with no problems. Care to elaborate?

There is absolutely a corrolation between being stupid and being a neo-nazi. However, in this regard smart people are even more dangerous since they are not only capable of fooling themselves but others as well.

Oof. What is up with these creepy, sweaty dudes on talkshows? I know they somewhat reflect the general populace, but to pull shit like this on air is just boggling.

I detested differential equations. However, that was more due to how it was presented than the underlying, surprisingly, beautiful math.

The only problem with courses like calc 3 and differential equations (in my experience, as a mathematician) is that they are cheating somewhat. By cheating I mean relying on inadequate, flawed or entirely omitted proofs. How can the students truly understand something if they are not presented the whole story (or at least reference)?

The good thing about these courses are that there are usually no shortage of relevant exercises!

Generally speaking, Library Genesis, Anna's Archive and Sci-Hub are your friends :) Otherwise you can try to email the authors. They will probably provide you with a copy.

I can do one without doing the other. I am an atheist and do not care for religion at all. However, that does not mean I blame Jews for something another group, the Zionists, think and do. Sure there is an overlap and corrolation, but the same is also very much true for the US Christian nut jobs along with others.

If you are going to label people and reject them on the basis of their label, make sure to label them right.

Let us not confuse Zionisim with the Jewish religion, please.

When I learned about it first time I thought it sounded too good to be true. Turns out, it is just that good.

It is a joke, there are no ads. I just wrote a fake command in the Nix syntax.
