That link I posted contains the true and complete extent of my knowledge on this subject.

It (also?) contains an arxiv link at the bottom: http://arxiv.org/abs/1603.03720

Tonight's episode of Better Call Saul was without doubt the most boring one they ever made. In fact, it is also the only boring one they ever made. Last week's was terrific. Tonight's had me yawning And I would like my money back.

I've been trying to help at the Homework section of the forum, but the questions are either too hard for me or the ones that I can help with have already been answered. But it's okay. A day may come when I will help someone and then come back here to brag about the achievement of how much I helped someone with a homework.

Legendary .

I remember when I was new and one time helped answer someone's question (not in the homework section and I also don't remember the someone, it was a long time ago) and that someone abandoned the thread and never replied. I felt stupid . I was like: why he/she doesn't reply to deny or affirm whether the question has been answered?

Looking out of window and observing high school students going to their final exams. Young ladies and gentlemen, dressed as adults for the first time. High heels and decent dark costumes, suits and ties. Most wearing tiny green ribbons pinned to their jackets, symbol of youth and hope.
Excitement and fear, laughing with friends and trying to revise what was forgotten. Relief and uncertainty.
Gaudeamus igitur, iuvenes dum sumus!

Finals? We are in March (still half semester). I don't get it.

Anyway, it must be a nice high school. At my place they don't dress like that.

No. Whatever you mean, no.

 

[zoobyshoe]

No. Whatever you mean, no.

Let us rejoice, therefore,
While we are young.
After a pleasant youth
After a troubling old age
The Earth will have us.

That was something. I liked it... It deserves applause.

this is the first half. It is in written form that is the same at all schools in the country. It is marked centrally. To increase objectivity they say :-)
Oh still remember the fantastic theme they made up for essay in my finals.
"I suspect where the world is going, I wonder where the life will lead me " I think that 4 or 5 pages were required. I was like whaaaaaaaat? I had absolutely no idea what to write. I wanted to write one short vulgar sentence and leave but didn't dare :-) I got C. LoL
The oral part (traditional form) will be in May.

Yup, that about sums it up.

With that subject I thought of doing the exact same thing.

I remember standing on a hilltop and seeing clouds casting shadows on the moorland below, and on other walkers down there. I commented to my mum that I wondered what it felt like to be in the shadow of a cloud. She replied that they just saw that the sun had gone behind a cloud.

I think that's the first time I remember that "click" sensation of knowledge slotting together, and the way the world changes when you suddenly see a pattern that has been there all along.

Everyone please I have an issue about the usage of plural and singular nouns in English.

So I've been wondering: when a couple gets married in a wedding, do they really kiss in front of all their family? Don't they feel embarrassed?

You mean heterosexual or homosexual couples ?
I think no, because people know each other well before marriage.

Either. Kissing is kissing. I think they would be embarrassed. I would. I would tell the other side to just hold hands. And even then holding hands is still embarrassing.

I think their parents probably saw them kissing before (either as lovers or causally if they spent New year or Christmas together) Nowadays it is common to live together before marriage so their parents know / assume they already had sex. So kissing at the altar is only a symbolic act.

I wouldn't do it. I don't know if you would be embarrassed, but I would be embarrassed with capital E. I don't care if others do it, but me? Nope.

I read somewhere (I don't remember where) someone mocking another person by saying: Don't tell me you sleep everyday with your wife and all you do is hold hands all night.

But I thought: What's wrong with just holding hands? These guys do it and I think it's adorable :

Awwww so cute!
I don't know what's wrong with holding hands. I think holding hands is awesome. That's a question for some men.

 

[Psinter]

That's what I also thought. Holding hands is nice and okay... Except with Rose from Titanic... Don't hold hands with her, she will let go of you when you sleep.

I don't understand Boolean algebra

hasn't there been binary systems before Boole

China had a binary system, even Ancient Africa had a binary system

Africa had the Odu of Ifa system

Egypt, India etc. had the binary system as well

what made Boolean logic so different?

 

[rootone]

Boolean is not just a means of counting as are other binary systems, it is also a formal system of logic,
