wait, is that a building or a train?
Train.
the thing you highlighted is too blurry to discern
it looks suspiciosly building like
A train you silly
look at that roof
We are in a station
You silly goose.
it's just what people say, silly geese
^
Or you silly rabbit.
๐ค
there's a lense flare?
Flappy.
What do you think it is?
The window is going through the roof, amongst other things.
That window does not open like that.
At least, it shouldn't.
The window?
๐
Where is the top of the window?
hehe
it's a curvy window
Clearly. ^^
image from the 1940s, train windows can open
We've been informed in school that we can only slant the windows, but not open them fully.
Apparently, the design is terrible. If you open them fully, the window could fall off and break.
lolwhat
if the man opened the window like that, it'll go through the roof of the train!
I love my school.

Do they remind you all to breathe casca?
okay
They should add those windows you wind up and down, like in old cars and the Ford Ka.
next puzzle being translated. This gives too much hype for no reason.
Chocolate. Chocolate makes you stay small. Eat more cabbages.

Callum remembers. ^^
The totally legal and true story of a boy that poisons his grandmother until she asks him to do it again and she dies and his parents are totally cool with it.

Th' heck?
can't speak tonight, what even ๐
ended up slipping into tongues at work trying to tell one of the chefs where i put a pan
Damn, 'at cake is barry.
until you wrote that, i never realised i sometimes drop the th in that

closer to like aat, wow
A big net has been thrown in a pool for fishing fish. This pool seems like it's not really big, but it's deeper. A part of the net is not visible.
Imaging like the net is not torn off, and that the sill of it is constituted of one rope which the extremities join, how many fish who are visible will be in this net?
Urk, this one
lol solet
Unless I'm mistaken, I think the answer is 7.
All of them? ๐ค

And?
๐
๐
You can see where the net starts (where the fisherman has his arms).
The rest is easy.
I suppose you'd jsut need to follow the largest continous shape?
Okay, I have another riddle. ^^
Yay!
That is, unless you have another translation lined up, Flappy?
Not largest. Pretty much just fill in the surface bounded by the two sticks and count the fish you hit.
The answer is 4, Casca.
No, you can do yours.
inb4 the prisoner island werido thing
http://www.abdn.ac.uk/prospectus/ugrad/study/G1Q8/ while we wait, pls rate the course arrem
3
out of
10 
only 3/10? D: It's mostly maths though
Or 20 
just with Gaelic added in c;
How's that a reasonable combination? ๐ค
I dunno Callum lol
A king has 1,000 barrels of wine. One day, an intruder is caught in the cellar, who claims that he managed ot poison exactly one barrel before being detected.
A single drop of wine from the affected barrel will lead to death in exactly 30 days. The king has 10 prisoners that he can use to find the barrel.
At first, he wants to have each prisoner drink from a separate set of 100 barrels, until one prisoner dies. Then, he simply throws out 100 barrels.
However, his royal advisor points out that you can, in fact, isolate the poisoned barrel. How?
Because a) it's maths, and b) gaelic is a beautiful language
back me up please @whole rapids
Oh no
oh no what solet
Yeah but that would be like me combining CS and some weird language X in a single course because I think X is a beautiful language. ๐ค
Yeah i suppose, but having a degree with anything to do with gaelic means that i've got increased job prospect ๐
Well, the barrel smells like poison 
Haha, sadly not.
Like, I won't dispute the fact that it is, but just let me study math and take the language as a minor, or the other way around. I think you'd look weird saying "yeah I studied math and gaelic".
Tasteless and odorless.
If it was like that it'd be too easy.
I am probably not someone you want as backup since I know virtually no Gaelic nor real desire to learn it.
Can maybe get government job tho
๐ค i suppose, but it's essentially just a minor, the last year is just a disseration about maths, no gaelic
Casca, what is this riddle 
And is the awnser obvious like always?

well, government or bbc alba job
๐ค to the riddle though
it's got something to do with making 2 prisoners drink the same barrel
well uh if you poison a barrel you must open it right?
and then knowing that if both die, you know which barrel
What if the others weren't opened? That way you can isolate it
Haha, no, Flappy. ^^
brah
The barrels all had corks, and were closed.

Was this riddle not on numberphile ages ago as well?
"were closed"
Can't remember the answer ๐ฆ
Not that I know of, Callum.
Still thinking about how it was poisoned...
Have each prisoner drink 10 from the remaining barrels. Then when 1 dies, have the remaining 10 prisoners drink 2 from the remaning 8. And keep going like that
๐ค
How it was poisoned isn't important, Flappy. ^^
But you need to isolate it, not to kill someone with it. ๐
On the 31st day, you wish to host a banquet, and will need all 999 safe barrels.
You can't just wait forever, I'm afraid.
What?
๐ค
I am saying facts.
i can narrow it down to like 6 barrels

994 is enough for a banquet? ๐
Haha, sadly not. ^^
Pls give the answer this is killing me
So we need all 999?
Yes.
YOU DON'T SAY
no i will if i work it out ๐
In that case, I'll stay quiet.
WELL CASCA THE KING MUST CATCH THAT STUPID INTRUDER AND HE'LL TELL WHICH ONE HE POISONED
AND BASTA
wait i think i have it
.w.
will upload photo of whiteboard, give me like a minute
Sure. ๐
Hahaha.
Test it with that chemical paper? See if it shows up?
No.
LOL
He only has the prisoners at his disposal.
Let's pretend the king is Charlemagne. Science wasn't really a force to be reckoned with at the time.
can the prisoners drink only a glass of each barrel
Dead or not | 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1
=> number every barrel, translate it to binary
=> have the prisoner drink if they come under the binary number, too tired to name it correctly
=> wait 30 days
=> you have a number for the barrel```
Correct, Callum!
The solution is why I love this puzzle. ^^
Once you know the answer, the puzzle just seems so clever.
Royal advisor, not jester.
BECAUSE ME DOESN'T KNOW BIANRY THINGS
Or the Oracle of Delphi, if that makes more sense.
When you don't know Binary: http://cs9.pikabu.ru/images/previews_comm/2017-02_5/148787730929726988.jpg
hm
well I think for my age we can forgive me 
14 ๐ค
when did i learn about binary
S3, so would have been 12/13
learned it in engineering science
We learn it at 16 - 17 ๐
Hai chrono 
Like only when we do stochastic variables
We didn't learn that at school at all
Same ๐

And the Temple inside is quite special in architecture too ๐
๐ค did you not burn upon entering? ๐
... I should have
Got to show western-ethnicity people from the wedding around and spill random trivia knowledge on em ๐
nice, did any of them burn? ๐ฅ ๐
yeah i know right
i got it by accident by using 1 to represent dead people and 0 to represent those that are alive
is their name for that kind of use of binary? Seems like it could be practically useful
yeah, good job seeing the boolean nature of it
๐ค casca said that the king was Charlemagne, but according to wikipedia, binary wasn't invented until 1679
casca lied ๐ฆ
... imagine if they did burn... I'd instantly turn into a super believer
actually, saying that I just read on, I Ching invented something like that in the 9th century
casca is god confirmed
of which god though chrono, what if it was allah getting rid of non-believers? ๐
Thee ban master shan't be corrected by such sub beings called authors, they are beneath his almighty reach
Um what do you mean callum not sure I understand?
The Oracle of Delphi also didn't give Charlemagne advice, Callum. ๐
๐ฎ THE TRUTH HAS COME OUT
The Oracle of Delphi was wack
time to ban casca methinks
:(
^^
Considering the process and how beucratical it was... then just to rewrite the predictions so that they are double sided...
Alas the priestesses had a reason to be high 24/7
๐ค What if casca was to ban himself?
ban Casca
โ Check failed. You probably don't have permission to do this.
That might work, although I'd rather not find out.
you could do that โค
I think the Bot doesn't have permission to ban any mods.
kelsey
Did you just try that callum ๐
We could find out ๐
Yes you are, Cas! :D Everyone here loves you too much to ban ya hehe
Hey Creepy and Flapps :3
Casca literally named himself after someone who helped kill caeser D:
"da drin" is "in here" and "dort drin" is "in there"?

Were you viciously attacked by a caeser salad sandwich at a young age? ๐
Julius?
When was Caesar born?
sounds posh
And dang, I am too used to said "Cesar."
13th of July.
:x: I cannot ban this member.
aw ๐ฆ
Yay. ๐
NO ARREM
Well it technically does. It just refuses to do so. ๐
YOU BANNED MIKA ONCE POOE MIKUH
User Flipperflopper is now banned for not doing enough math. ๐จ
I just taught her binary, Arrem. Un-ban her at once!
Sorry, Flรคppers, but it's true.
can she do binary arithmetic though? ๐ค
I set my status to offline.
Quick. What's 101 in decimal?
That. ๐
.w.
Convert 101 from binary to decimal. ๐
๐
111 + 101
Good. Knowing that 101 is 5, what's 10? No cheating of any kind allowed. ๐
202?
Do we have 2 as a digit in binary?
^
oh shiet
^^
1001?
Close. If we forget binary for a second and focus on our good old decimal. How do you multiply any number by 10?
+ is or in this case
Any number by 10? ๐ค
i don't understand the questo
If I give you a number, say 876542536734634563456345, how would you multiply it by 10, and would it take particularly long to do it? ๐
just add 147 to the end
snek is now bannd
Just put a 0 behind this 
Exactly.
In any base, multiplying by the base is always quite easy, as it only consists of adding another 0 at the end.
Thus, in base 2 it's very easy to multiply things by 2, just like multiplying things by 10 in base 10.
And like in base 10, the only thing you do is add a zero at the end.
So we have 101 which is 5, add a zero to multiply it by two and get 1010, which is indeed 10. Tada. ๐

By that same logic, 20 is 10100, 40 would be 101000 and so on.
Why do mathematicians always get christmas and halloween mixed up arrem? ๐ค
something something oct dec. ๐
Or rather
mmm >latex
is it just >latex <insert latex here>?
yes
Yes. And I autosurround it with align because memes.
It's just notation for different bases.
Because if you write 101, people will think you're talking about 101. If you're however talking about 5 in binary, you add a little 2 as a subscript to tell people that the number you're talking about is in binary.
so the subscript is the base?

or idk if it's called subscript
Aye.
the number that fell down
Dang, I am learning everyday in this server.
I could sit here and talk about math all day just to use >latex. ๐
im assuming you use latex at uni then? ๐ค
Yep.
well then

Nah
๐ฆ
It's a dative verb: helfen.
I help you = Ich helfe dir.
Yeah.
I mean, I guess it's an indirect object.
Oh?
No, that's not how it works.
Take this for example: she helps her friend.
How so?
No it isn't.
It's a verb.
No.
Yes. An infinitive isn't a noun or used as a noun.
I have to look it up and see.
You're right actually. It seems in English it's technically used as those elements.
It just doesn't really have an effect on how the other elements in the clause work.
In the case of the German, that is, the dative isn't used because of that.
@hot cloak Okay, I thought for a bit and figured out why what you were saying didn't sound right to me. It's because an infinitive isn't exactly a noun in this type of sentence, but creates a noun phrase. In other words, in "She wants to help her friend", the part "to help her friend" is the entire direct object (noun phrase).
And for a more complicated example: "She wants to help her friend to finish his homework before he has to catch the bus back home at 3pm." That entire italicized part is one direct object.
Yeah.
Well, I think it technically is the "indirect object" in German. But it wouldn't be in English.
But it's better to just think of it as a dative verb.
Rather than direct/indirect, since that makes less sense in German anyway.
Hmmm.
I can't really think of any examples.
I mean, you can have a theoretical "indirect object" within the infinitive phrase, but I can't think of a case where the main clause itself would be able to take one.
And for a more complicated example: "She wants to help her friend to finish his homework before he has to catch the bus back home at 3pm." That entire italicized part is one direct object. <-- "before" is a conjunction here, so "she wants to help her friend [to] finish his homework" and "he has to catch the bus back home at 3 am" are separate clauses. @opal sequoia
Not necessarily.
before is not necessarily a conjunction, but they are separate clauses, that isn't one direct object
๐คท๐ฝ could be wrong i guess but that's how i parse it
It can be read both ways.
It depends if you read it as a part of the noun phrase, or a part of the main clause.
Like, look at this example: I want to finish (work) early. When you look at that, the "early" adverb is applying to the "to finish" noun phrase, not to the whole sentence. However, you could say "Early, I want to finish" but that's kind of weird because you're saying that your "want" is early, not your finishing.
So in this case, the "before ..." adverbial phrase is applying to the "to finish his homework" noun phrase.
Or another example might be "To leave by 3pm is preferable" where "To leave by 3pm" is the noun phrase.
i guess
To be fair, it's pretty complicated nonsense that no one really needs to know.
But it's just to show that, like, a big complex set of phrases can count as an object.
Mmmm. Math channel indeed.
This is one piece of invaluable advice.
@hot cloak Use it on guys if you haven't already xD
Would you analyse a girl if she married a book?
Depends. If she marries a math book, that's perfectly reasonable, if she opts for a novel, then she sure needs some ahem real analysis.
Interesting perspective. Truly a fascinating subject, I must say. Please, tell me more.

fancy high schools
you mean gym?
no
ok
@hot cloak You haven't heard "videregรฅende" called "gymnas"?

Hauptschule, Mittelschule & Gymnasium
Gymnasium being the one for the smartest kids
really?
Has nothing to do with the english "Gym"
ok lol
did you go to Gymnasium?
You make norway sound like a shitplace, when in reality norway got the highest GDP and one of the best living standards
chrono i hate Norway!
Wilhelm von Oranien Gymnasium in Dillenburg, Hesse

ok..
Drinking is generally forbidden for students.

It's like ComicCon, but all of the games that are released/going to be released go there and set up booths
You can get things like free t-shirts...Games like Overwatch usually have a new map that comes out or so
and they announce that kind of big stuff there and let you try out new games before they're out hehe

new cinematic today!
I hope it's gonna be about Zarya
oh yeah, it is!! i've just been lurking the overwatch subreddit
pending mercy changes sound scary
@opal sequoia saw that bit about the short stories in Germany. I'd be interested too if you end up finding anything
I was surprised at not being able to quickly find one for English stories, but then again my search was very cursory
i am pretty sure there are some stuff about short stories in german
Sure, definitely. I don't know anything about what the writing market is like in Germany. I mean, in English speaking countries most genres are huge, but that's not necessarily the case everywhere for all genres.
but i had no interest in it
so can't help :(
german people kinda love sci-fi/drama/thrillers
Here's a reference for English fantasy and sci fi: https://crhodges.wordpress.com/for-writers/science-fiction-and-fantasy-short-story-markets/
in Italy there's a lot of writers and relatively few readers, so the situation is a bit weird :s
Germans seem to love their krimi
Specifically short story publications.
I've still been unable to find a German book I like reading
speaking of fictional stuff
I bought harry potter sorcerer's stone and GoT book 1 while i was last in Germanyu
haven't actually had time to start reading them but am excited
not that interested in the HP saga and I despise GoT
about HP, it's not that I don't like it but I don't feel invested enough to read the books.
Despise????!!!
yeah
What makes you feel so strongly against GoT
oh i know! how about His Dark Materials series
it's probably a slightly negative opinion magnified by the obnoxiously large presence in the media and internet
i am still reading his dark materials x.x
it's so good right?
i'm in still in the first book :D
the explanations can be somewhat long-winded tho
but the setting and story is nice
yeah it's very descriptive
also Martin seems like kind of a twat from what I've heard
what's His Dark Materials? Never heard of it
have you tried Die Zwerge, berzi?
Here's a couple of German sites I found if you want to look...
