Jan. 23rd, 2010 12:01 am- 10:18 @divbyzero More high-speed mental arithmetic? I wish they had something cooler than just numbersjuddling on. #
- 12:14 @DrMathochist I dunno. I TOTALLY agree with that if not only one, then very few nations would create American cheese. Most have more taste. #
- 13:51 @kaninchenzero Happy to hear from you again. You are in my thoughts. #
- 16:26 @DrMathochist You can actually watch Fringe? I tried once and couldn't even push myself through a single episode. #
- 16:29 Got started on a New! and Shiny! paper - this one on constructing homotopy diagonals for Nice families of polytopes. Came out of the blue. #
- 16:52 Rainbow over Stanford. #
- 17:56 Short story idea: a man for whom probability didn't work. Around him, monte carlo methods fail and probabilistic theorems give corner cases. #
- 17:57 This man cannot use ATMs since the network protocols they communicate with use probabilistic collision avoidance. And so on. #
- 18:11 When I learned to drive, I was taught not to enter a crossing unless I could get out of it too. SFdrivers are not impressing me right now. #
- 22:38 @kaninchenzero I might need to fudge the quantum mechanics to make this legible at all. Would be sad if the guy walks in a fusion cloud #
- 22:39 @mdreid Sure. And then the terminal crashes when he tries to cash out his winnings. #
- 23:43 @maymaym Yeah, I haven't got the FAINTEST how to relax either. I try, but within half an hour, I get bored and start to Do Stuff. #
