Oh I'm thinking condo, like an apartment that you own
All housing in all of the western world is getting more and more expensive rapidly and it’s not looking to slow down
Ah okay so it's not just about renting, you do like the land and all
That's valid!
Yo if anyone is interested in competing for a DESMOS Math Art contest with a potential win for a chick-fil-a gift card lmk in DMs ill tell u the steps, there are currently only 5 ppl which i have doing it so you most likely will have a good shot.
i still personally think houses r better in the longterm
Yeah I think that’s fair
apartments seem ideal shortterm
Yeah the solution to housing getting expensive is to just try and own your house
Like there are two separate questions here
i didnt know u could own condos tho
I’m personally fine with living in a flat because I like living in a city
Yea fair
Oh yeah you can!
But I’m not at all opposed to having a garden and growing vegetables and stuff
my kiddos need to touch grass
trust ur food will taste infinitely better
do you know a lot about bayes?
idc ab a pool but i do want my kids to have a swing or those playsets or smth
I am dogshit at probability
plus pools r too much work to clean fr
Do you want one unit in a building, a townhome (so attached on the left and right but you have the whole whole and maybe a bit of space in front/behind), or a fully detached house with land on 4 sides
And owning vs renting
For me, def owning, once I work I wanna buy a place almost right away and pay it off in a few years
The fact I passed probability never mind did as well as I did is nothing short of a small miracle
As for which type I see arguments in each direction
probability is 
I would love to own somewhere some day, I think the thought of paying a land leaches mortgage is sickening, but I don’t see that ever happening
detached house ideally
better be making a lot to pay off a place after your first few years haha
i dislike townhouses
fr
i plan to live w my parents for a few years to save money
and split some w my partner
whats the difference as long as you have a lawn
"you live with your parents??? oh..."
also i just like rhat houses r a bit more closed and personal
do you know a lot about probability
Shut up
The American urge to participate in the urban sprawl
no, we damn hated it
Unit in a building/condo/owned apartment: the building might have nice amenities, maintenance is offloaded, but you're closer to neighbors so noise and all. But you're firmly in the city
Detached you have to do maintenance and no amenities but 100% privacy. Probably in suburbia which means more space but less close to nice things in the city
Townhome: probably in the city so there's a bunch of stuff that's accessible by walking. Less privacy than a townhome, no amenities
ngl im not a city girl
i like my suburbs
(not next to a farm tho cuz i dont enjoy smelling cow shit every morning no please)
Yeah farms are a no for me
As for city vs suburbia... I see the case both ways idk it's hard
The thought of living in car dependent suburbs with nothing around sounds like my idea of personal hell
I mean I kinda grew up in it and I have 0 desire to ever return to it
I mean...
That's the plan :P
yea i barely lived in the cities but
suburbs feel so home to me
plus many suburb houses r so pretty
me rn
Yeah the privacy is very nice
oke huge thing an apartments (not all apartments) is that
if ur trying to sleep and
someones vacuuming next door
and u can hear
😭
Oh yeah neighbor noise would suck
again some apartments not all obv
or someone's kid is stomping above you
or some crazy person is yelling for like an hour
LMAOO
If I'm gonna have an apartment I def wanna buy in a building with strong sound insulation
also one time a neighbor threw a wooden plank on my balcony i think because i was laughing too loud (bro it was like 3pm)
that was fucked
I think living directly above the Main Street with all the clubs and stuff in my first year of uni has just desensitised me to all of that
wtf
r u joking
did it jumpscare u bad
yea 
were they that mad
😭
holy shit
i have no idea who it was
hi chip
hi ally
yea this is why i dont live in apartments
except im someone who wants a house thatd fit my ideal family size
i dont want a huge house
too much work to clean and idc
10 kids
Tbh I’m not inherently opposed to like suburbs, I just think they’re generally built horrifically these days
But yeah I was thinking, okay if I had like, idk 2000 sq ft apartment in a building with amenities and very nice sound insulation
It's really a coin flip whether I'd take that or a detached house
I need to do some meter conversions one minute
I think because I heavily disliked living in suburban Dallas as just being soooooo boring I'm somewhat drawn to being a city
do u think im elastigirl from the incredibles or some shit
Divide by 10 subtract a bit
LMFAO i just wanted to see the reaction
Probably 185 to 190 zone
Nah
can i use latex bot here
LMAOOOOO
my ideals like 2
my mom wanted 4 kids but after 3 c-sections they basically said she shouldn't have any more
2 is a good number
For me I'm vaguely thinking 3 or less but my wife will be the one who decides since she bears the brunt of the burden
omg i would be so. happy for twins lowkey
maybe double the watermelon but
twins r so cute
ig 🙄
You guess what?
ig that's true
I don’t think kids is something I can ever see myself wanting, I don’t really understand the appeal
i mean
yea dealing with a newborn baby probably sucks a lot of the time but
have u considering what it's like having a mini u
W
Yeah that doesn’t really appeal to me
that would be awesome
bro can achieve everything i didn't
I’d rather have a cat or a dog
true
lmfao i mean jokes aside it's a huge decision yeah
tho i think if i married i def would want to
I mean yeah there are no generalizable preferences here lmao
How old are you?
how much older 
likee bro my eyes r partially red cuz i got sunscreen in my eyes im chopped rn.
oof
im 19
Yeah, but it could get weirder
Yeah it's a bit odd out of the blue
feels like if ur first question to someone is "how old are u" ur too old lol
or you're 8 years old and ask everyone that question
Oh no he didnt ask immediately and it didnt seem like harm
ah
he just seemed curious
cuz hes also ethiopian
more like a person excited to see another person from their background
and he seems genuinely nice
im not creeped out i just wanted to say i feel too chopped rn for rhat cuz my eyes r a bit red
ah i just thought it was just a random person saying that as you were passing by or smth lol
i mean i was i just saw them when i was tryna exit a building
Ahhhhh okay
I mean hey you're still early in your engineering degree
.
k ur implying ill het chopped.
I'M NOT IT'S A JOKE
Your eyes are red you're not seeing clearly
i wish i got a pic of them
yall wouldve laughed
its not as red as they ere before
Fine is valid but also dastardly LMAO
Ahhhh
I mean i donr wanna be rude but i think 50 is a bit much for me bc theyre aging a lot faster
and also i dont think id be too attracted
40 is like my max
Oh yeah no that's totally valid. Hell a lot of people your age have a much lower cap if anything
I just meant saying "if he's fine" was hilarious
Ur making me sound like a gold digger fr.
Wait fineness is about looks rather than gold I thought
I just thought the quasi gen z terminology was amusing
This
Oh oh, I didn't mean that to insinuate anything bad
LMAO
Dude
CALM
IM JK
Just like, you were just being guilty of even having a max and I was like pfft your max is generous
Also LMAO
I SAW THAT
observe that
i^1 is at (0, 1) in the complex plane (here were treating the complex plane as if it was just the xy plane)
i^2 is at (-1, 0)
i^3 is at (0, -1)
and i^0 = i^4 is at (1, 0)
we can see that the powers of i are on the unit circle, rotating by π/2
so what about sqrt(i)? we can make an educated guess that it would be halfway between 1 and i, aka a π/4 rotation from 1, so sqrt(i) might be equal to cis(π/4) = cos(π/4) + i sin(π/4)
and we can see that this is actually true
@bleak eagle @wanton bough
damn
so we can see that in general the powers of i follow this
That’s like basic complex numbers stuff
Let them cook
Since when is there a cis function
Actually idk the context
and we can derive these 2 properties from that definition of cis(θ)
Cos(t)+isin(t) is cis(t)
Y’all gotta make abbreviations for anything and everything
using the 2nd property we can write
wtf is cis
cos + i sin
we can rewrite this as
as the left side isnt a function of a, the right side isnt either
so ln(cis(a))/a must be a constant
lets now calculate this constant
rewriting ln(cis(a))/a, we can write
which looks suspiciously like the definition of a derivative
if only we add a limit where a -> 0
but this is a constant anyway so adding the limit doesnt matter
so calculating,
so ln(cis(a))/a = i
so this becomes
cis(θ) = exp(iθ)
:p
@wild lantern this was the context :p
its my unrigorous but intuitive derivation of eulers formula
i didnt like the taylor series proofs cuz they require far too much prerequisite knowledge
so i came up with this
What you'll often see in complex analysis is this as a definition
But that feels a little disappointing
So it is good to think of intuitive reasons for why it should be the case imo
yeah i didnt like "we define cosine as this power series" cuz
then i have to explain why thats true
so this intuitive explanation was nice imo
also "differentiate cis(x)/exp(ix) and see that its 0" is also disappointing cuz ur kind of assuming theyre related functions in the first place
Define sin as the unique solution of the ODE y''+y=0, y(0)=y'(0)-1=0
when theres no real obvious reason it should be related
again, have to explain why this comes out to sine
Just do ODEs first
doesnt help if im trying to explain this to someone who doesnt know odes
Or if you have defined sine, you probably know the derivatives of sin
The bigger problem is the unique existence of solutions to linear unique value problems
🐈
I name her car

Where all the bayes guys
I taught my engineering friend some probability and they're using it in their thesis

video games?
bro is not getting employed
He was employed but he chose to leave the job and go to research
Ok chats going too fast rn in dis 1@velvet dagger
Im gonna shower
Ur 3 day crash course starts in 2 minutes
Oh yeah go do that asap
Wait I'm at a conference and will probably go to bed soon can we start it later?
Nope.
Point is for u to be under pressure
😂
Jk
Yes
Lmaoooooo
We can start ur 72 hour window later
Tyty
same vibes
Hi grass
💀
siller
oh lmao hi
ive said it on the server b4 but ig u werent there to see it
howd u figure it out? lol
eh
your username is still the same
I just never bothered to click on it
thats true
lmao
yeah i am citruz
ive been using this name for like
a while now
ofc you were
whats that supposed to mean 
I don't know much on way Discord treats ogone numbers. If it just needs them for 2FA?
Does it?
Hi guys, I came here seeking help and advice
So I've been studying CS for the past few years, and I always thought math wasn't necessary, as long as you got the basics (the basics that sadly I thought I had, but I didn't) and I neglected math from way before like from middle school till now (Senior year in CS), I recently realized that I love math and I was really wrong about what I thought before, which got me to subscribe to a full math courses to start over, and in the start I have been struggling with multiplication computations (I can do from 1-10) in maybe 10 seconds in each question give or take (and I can do larger than that but it takes more than 10 seconds), and I thought that I really should work on that and try to improve my computing skills since I started working from the basics aiming to be really good at math, the goal was make fast computation to be from 10s to 4s max by practice before I continue my math course (I'm currently in multiplication section), my question is does it really matter to try to improve how fast I can do computations ? because I've really been struggling, not with the task itself but because it takes a lot of time and effort I procrastinate a lot, which resulted in a thing that should be done in a week or two to a whole month and a few weeks, and I stopped doing the course because I wanted a strong foundation before I proceed with course, so I ask again; do fast computations make a difference ? should I really take the time and effort to compute fast ?
A few friends said I'm wasting my time being a perfectionist, and I should just continue with the course, fast computations can be done with calculators, and eventually I will lose the skill of fast computation with time.
Procrastinated a lot because I had several subjects to study besides starting math over, and when I had free time I wanted to have good time, but now summer break is here so I thought I should ask for advice if it's worth the time and effort
fast computations don't matter, unless you're trying to calculate tips or something
imo do not spend dedicated time trying to get better at arithmetic
if you like CS learn discrete math
Nah, I mainly want to study math because I like it, and it's strongly tied to my major
You definitely do not need any computational skills for CS math
Thanks guys @lavish hare @solid snow
You will rarely compute something explicitly, and if you do, you can just use a calculator
Do you guys think I should change the order of how I'm taking the courses ? I did it with a friend and since I came here for advice why not ask this too:
From top to bottom:
Basics of math
Algebra 1,2
Geometry
Discrete math
Trigonometry & Precalculus
Calculus 1
Calculus 2
Linear Algebra
Calculus 3
Statistics and probability
Differential equations
Seems fine
fine
id take discrete math after calculus 2 maybe?
In 2 days I give finals on math any tips to prepare till then?
i remember we covered stuff like generating functions and recurrence relations in our discrete math course, knowing calculus 2 can help with understanding infinite sum manipulation and stuff
not necessary tho
welcome to the server @wet beacon
in my case we learn discrete math after taking a required proofs course that all stem majors are required to take
i wouldn't require calculus before discrete math but you should be comfortable with thinking in proofs and have the basic concepts, ideas, and tools involved in doing math

whether something is a GPA booster or not always just depends on your disposition and the specific curriculum i feel like
I’m the type of guy who almost went crazy about proofs
Took Abstract Algebra before and I almost went to a therapist after 😂
game theory would probably be a better gpa booster for you then :p. but if you seriously had such bad experiences then i think maybe neither would boost your gpa
Yeah I was just exagging. I mean I’m not the brightest I’m actually a C student 😂
Majoring in CS with Math Minor
Im on academic probation right now
And this is my last chance to boost my GPA to 2.0 so I can graduate
I’m like 100% done with my CS classes
So I’m only left with one math class to boost it and it also completes my minor
So basically it’s a make or break situation for me 😭
My dilemma is. Taking Game Theory this summer which is a 4 week course
OR take Number Theory this fall
The summer course starts on monday
Take it in the fall
Game Theory isn’t an option in the fall unfortunately
I meant number theory
Ohhh
No offense, but your track record suggests a 4 week accelerated course might not be a good idea
that is true
Do not jeopardize graduating
No offense taken
But on the brightside, both professors are GOATED according to rmp

But in my case I aim for a B- and above
Ye take the fall course and lock in heavily
Anything below, I’m a goner
Theres just a lot more room for error
But also If ever I get a B- this summer then I can always drop the fall course
I have until tomorrow to decide 😂
You can learn game theory on your own time
It’s not like this is the only chance to learn it
Thank you
So this number theory professor right. Is also my professor of my abstract algebra last year
I remember I only got like 55% overall
And he still gave me a B-
And it’s a 4 credit course
So hopefully he gives me the same grade 😂
there might be something to be said about already knowing his teaching style benefitting you
Factsss
He knows me as well since it’s a small class (<20).
awh nice
His grading criteria is based solely on weekly quizzes
since your graduation may depend on this, maybe study up before taking the class too 😭
And it’s not cumulative
That’s what I’m doing 😂
abstract algebra will be a big prerequisite i bet
nice lmao
Ngl it helped me a ton
I suggest an International convention for the clear differentiation of decimal points/commas and thousands separators:
Many systems confusingly use "," or "." for both, often reversed depending on region. This leads to critical misunderstandings.
Proposal:
- Use apostrophe
'as thousands separator:234'567 - Use dot
.as decimal separator:234.567
✅ Visually distinct
✅ Unambiguous internationally
✅ Safer for data exchange
✅ Easier for both humans and machines
This system is already used in Switzerland and avoids dangerous misreadings in global contexts
What do you think? 👀
wishing a happy pride month to lgbtq+ members whether its a little early or right on time 🤍 🤍
Naah, Switzerland already uses the suggetion
Precisely because standards are fragmented, we need to push for something truly universal and unambiguous to prevent ongoing confusion and dangerous misunderstandings in international data exchange.
Using ' for thousands and . for decimals is a minimal, highly readable change that can be safely adopted with minor parser updates, and builds on existing precedents (e.g. Swiss usage)
Nah
I propose to write out the word "point" or "comma" explicitly
432comma632 and 3point141
This isn’t always unambiguous, though.
What if I write, say, 246.245? Unless they already know which system I’m using(rendering the whole thing useless, because we wouldn’t need a new one if everyone knew what we used), they could think I’m referring to 246.245 or 246,245
using spaces for thousands is already recommended by international standards organization and avoids introducing new notation (especially since it doesn't carry mathematical meaning)
I’m not entirely sure why people use anything at all instead of just, you know, 1000
I guess it’s faster to parse 1 000 and things of that form?
because it's hard to easily judge the size of a number like 37249502 whereas 37 249 502 is much easier
not really necessary for numbers on the order of 1000 but very helpful beyond that
Ic
and i would also note that "just use dot for the decimal separator" isn't really "unambiguous" since the dot is already use for something else in some countries. the exact same problem would arise from enforcing comma, though, so there's no such thing as an ideal solution in that regard
Obviously the ideal solution is to merge the dot and comma into the same symbol
I don't see any problems with this approach,
ah yes
universal
i agree with the idea but adoption is always the issue
we should just use fractions :33
Good
But then how would we write pi in the “trail of infinite decimals” form, e.g. 3.14.. 
Genius!
converges to 22/7 btw
Hi citrus 🍋🟩
combining blue and red when considering a colour as an element of a vector space whose basis vectors are labelled as blue,red,green and the intensity of the colour is the magnitude of the vector yields purple. so logically you could consider purple disk there instead of a blue one. white is an equal combination of red, green and blue and combining that with red will give a pale shade of red so the tail could be considered as pale red or pink
Yes i had a pfp crisis earlier
pfp crisis? lmao
i like it
liked ur old one too tbh
Every user known to mankind fr
so fucked fr
wait r u like on break rn or smth
Shiru is a user known to mankind tho
i remember u being so busy w military
no its just the weekend
i am going on vacation from tomorrow tho
for 6 days
yaaay
ooh to where
im sick and tired of base
thank uuu
where even is base if u dm me asking
just country
unless its like in the same country
idk why i assumed ur traveling by plane any time i see the word vacation i think plane 
lmao no
my base is like
2 hrs by metro away from my home
its 10km from the border of north korea
Oh yeah definitely no plane needed
yea
well u deserve the vaycay rest as much as u can
thanks :>>
if u want more details my home is in seoul and my base is in this place called paju
“if u want more details” making me sound like a creep ..
But that is a beautiful area
have u ever met up with blo
the one and only boring united states of america
well i used to live there so
:P
and will go back once im done with the army
if i can
cuz trump kinda fucked up my plans but
lmao
wait let me show u on my mac
alright
he fucked up everyones plans
me too
sobbing
hi
if you see a tag u want (also known as a guild) from somebody, u click on it → join the server if the invite is given → verify if needed → go to user settings and hit profile (also known as where you change your profile) → scroll down for "server tag"
only works on comp mobiles a bit more annoying bc u cant click a persons tag
hi clau
NO
yeah i cant click on ur tag :<
u should send me the invite
dms
so i can have it
mathcord should also have its own server tag 
the legacy username badge is so ugly so i dont enable it
the hashtag symbol?
wait wdym
yah
i dont mind it tbh
my gif didnt send hehe
Oh nooo
Ok now recreate this in TikZ
no
@steel vessel this ca song is in my top 3 of most listened songs this month
Have u ever listened to it
nope
I thought this was Antarctica at first
I don't listen to any song
I am so irritated rn. Idk what happened to my phone but whenever I try to take screenshot, my entire phone freezes, touch stops working and I had to shutdown and restart the phone to fix it.
I can't take screenshots now cuz of this 
Had to take photo from other phone, see chat gpt smoking
why use chatgpt as a calculator when you could just as easily use an actual calculator
Deadass
Just gotta live life on the edge like that
But I mean, chatgpt can never be wrong in those instances, right?
chatgpt is ass
idk why it didn't send gif lol
okay thank you. This is my first time joining some communities on discord
often you kinda need to assume the exact opposite, doubt and scrutinize it as much as possible lol
neural networks have lots of generalizing power, which is roughly why a large model like current AI assistants can seem like they solve just about anything, but they're unpredictable and prone to hallucinate or just not perform well on logical tasks
and while they seem to be getting better their core principles have been the same
similar architectures etc
I get what you're saying, but that message was meant to be sarcastic haha
I'm trying to read my first ever academic paper for my internship , and it seems like people don't use if-then and if-only-if statements as much as I thought they would in their proofs, and so I keep having to translate between this is what they are saying versus this is the direction they imply, and it's just like such an extra task, like just write if-then statements, iff , or am I just horribly wrong?
yeah math or even some CS academics don't write algoritmically, I think its normal to fill in these implementation details yourself
on a paper the level of abstraction is often higher than in concrete implementations
Yeah, just like would it not be easier to read the paper like that so the same content of like iff proofs are not harder to read
You still see if-then and iff statements
@dreamy ore
This is so random but
do u think having a crush is fun
ASKING CUZ OF #discussion message
having no crush is so boring fr its fun when u have one
well my crush situation is over now but
what i can say is
life has gotten more boring since its over
somewhat
mine is currently over bc she rejected me but its ok
lmaoo
i hate the grace period more
because i only like 1 woman every 1 or 2 years
which leaves like 5 until i start pushing 30
yea thats fair (responding to both of u) and im sry ab that vereity wish u strong healing
i dont really care i was just rejected in a slightly embarassing way
its all g
i think if you are not used to having crushes the infatuation can be consuming
and very annoying
that sucks
mine ended in a ridiculous way
and then post rejection is hard bc u hyperanalyze yourself but maybe thats just me idk
Yeah that can be hell
we met on some dating app
he kinda was acting attached to me for a bit, even briefly kissed
then he suddenly tells me he sometimes feels uncomfortable with physical touch cuz he has a boyfriend
i was like oh? i didnt know and he said check my profile on some app
and sure enough it says "❤️ D+940smth"
?????
uve been dating for over 900 days???
whyd u kiss me??
-# anyway hes sitting next to me rn actually
Re Vereity: Yeah I was confused too about the confidence remark at first but realized you were probably responding to me calling it hell lmao
Re shiru: What in the world
kinda hate him, may leviticus 20 13 get to him
god thats horrible i should not say that
for some reason ppl use dating apps to cheat a lot
i was joking but
ye having crushes when you are not secure in yourself is something i dont wish on anybody its a guaranteed fumble
@timid bronze for me there was the extra thrill of having a crush on a boy in the army
cuz homosexual acts in the army is illegal and can land u in 2 years in jail

where tf u live
yeah this is understandable
no one saw which is a good thing anyway even besides the jail problem
wouldnt want rumors circling
Wtff
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i forget that korea requires army
Valid yeah. That insecurity risks getting in the way of the relationship if you're accepted, causes you to feel deficient if you're rejected, and can lead to anxiety if you're not able/willing to ask
crushes can suck sometimes if u feel like they arent showing u they like u but r also showing signs they do
but atp id leave i wouldnt continue to go for someone purposefully playing games with me
if they like u you will know
i have no plans to join the military but i am sometimes curious if id be passable physically to join
the thing is
this is a very enclosed environment
and also very boring cuz
u dont get ur phone for most of the time
so ur mind just wanders to ur crush :p
i remember once i was like
Fr
true any crushes ive had they lived rent free in my head
so real 😭

mine exponentially diminish the more i know them so i think i just like their appearance or smth ngl
any compliment they give u u think all the time too
omg true
also overanalyzing everything they do
FR
Kinda the opposite for me, I don’t really like anyone until I get to know them well
i can only be attracted to the idea of someone that i have
Yeah lmao
and never the actual person
or rather its just not as intense
i mean they also say especially u never know what a person is like before u move in w them
so u get to know ppl more
sometimes it doesnt work out
:p
eventually i realized i couldnt imagine dating them so i kinda gave it up then one of her friends made her reject me due to information i gave out lol
Someone actually asked if me and the person I have a crush on are “planning on dating” and we both said “no” simultaneously 
Oh this is smth i fear lowk
Falling in love with someone early on is terrifying because some people let on a lot more than you think they do
i think crushing and falling in love r very different
My worry is that I'd be someone who gives everyone very sage advice
as in, the role they fulfill in your life matters more than the specific person?
i imagine how they will act and what they will say
And then if I get interested? I get swept away and caution is thrown to the wind
LM
when they got a booboo thats all i can think about
a good way to describe it is that i sort of construct a personality that they have based on my impressions of them
😭 😭 😭 😭 😭
and obviously they are different from that
i mean
at least my exes
theh were my rly good friends before i started crushing on them
so i had an idea of them
That def makes sense
if youve ever heard of pedestalizing someone its kind of like that
i do it less now but i had an old crush where that was pretty rampant
maybe thats tmi
would it be fair to say that you're longing for an imaginary, idealized version of who you would like your partner to be?
or is that like, off the mark?
if i am attracted to them i imagine them to be perfect its kind of like that
like, there's a frame and you have an idea of a perfect painting that would fit in it
so yes kind of what you described
and that's what you're looking for
but there's no painting that's perfect in all the ways you want
LM?
icic 
Probably intended to be followed up by AO
i think its a slight consequence of having so few crushes i am actually not sure why i get so little
ouch
i mean one factor can be how high your standards are—not saying this in a bad way. but also sometimes attraction doesnt happen that often for people
i dont have definite standards i can think of i think
Hlw
/hj…
Bro with the 1s reply
hes already dead, you need to keep firing shots LOL
out for murder
😢
Moment when u are frustrated from everything and need peace and love
Real and true
Theres friends and family too!
ok u know thats not the same
that's not the same
there's the riemann hypothesis!
it'll never cheat based on the last 300 years
oops mb 200 I misremembered the random news articles
RH is such a good gf if you are obsessed
170-180 I think
RH has been around from the 1850's afaik
Could be wrong
Yeah I rounded
but she has more than one bfs 😭
I'd win

partners arent the only love that can fill that need
i get what you mean but a way i like to think of it as sometimes the end of a friendship can hurt a much as a breakup
doesnt have to be a partner
Oh okay
It needs to be a partner...
Certain types of emotional needs can only be met by a partner but it's easier to be patient on that if you have other needs already met
Like what are people looking for in a relationship?
Companionship and support are two huge ones. You want someone who celebrates your success, someone has your back when you need it (be it comfort or assistance), someone for whom you enjoy each other's company, and someone with whom you can have your desired degree of emotional and physical intimacy
I might be simplifying a bit but I think this hits the major notes
The thing is, friendship covers most of these, basically except intimacy and the... Reliable feeling/idea of being someone's #1 favorite person
If you're lacking all of these, then the loneliness sucks
And then you might project all of those unmet needs onto the idea of having a partner, and okay now you might be desperate, pick the wrong person, etc
hi. I believe I can copy graphs from desmos.com easily, but now I cannot. Did desmos stopped copy function?
unless youre specifically craving romance it doesnt
But if you have friends who handle most of these, it's easier to be willing to wait on some of those needs which are only met by relationships until the time is right and you have the right person
dami sums it up well
needing someone to love doesnt have to be romantic
I know
The one I am missing is romantic
Guys. Whad program or website do you use when you need to draw graphs and put them on documents? Any recommendation?
I mean yeah that's def a valid need to have and I wish you good luck in finding a romantic partner
well i see then, you have to be patient and one day you can find your right match. the msg before wasnt specific enough imo because anything can fulfill that
Just that yeah a lot of people, not necessarily you, put too many of their needs contingent on a partner
And that can be more of a recipe for trouble because then you become more desperate and are more likely to choose unwisely
And even if you choose wisely you might put a much higher emotional burden
Oh yeah definitely
I will say i wish aladdin was my bf fr 🥀 /j
LMAO
hy
@verbal lark welcome to the mathcord! 
u ppl really discuss math problems here ?
Yup! There are many channels for many different types of talk
yep ok
my favorite math problems to talk about are the ones about not being able to see whos my professor until the semester begins 💯
Discussion channels are general chit chat, math discussion is more math centric, chill is where the kinda memey stuff happens, the topics channels are focused, help channels if you have homework (rather than conceptual) questions, etc
Ooooof yeah. Might be a new hire?
no.
ALL CLASSES DONT HAVE
MaTH PROFS LISTED
Yes
These people need to move their asses fr
apparently its to stop the popular profs being signed up for
but istg that doesnt just happen to the math department the chem department is like that too
except chem lists theirs regardless
Yeah I mean, it's not necessarily that much of a problem. It won't lead to overfull classes or anything
Since the size is limited anyway
exactly
haha
And some people won't get the popular prof because it doesn't fit the schedule
So glad there isnt anonymity in the chem classes
one prof is actually so ableist
But ofc they get away with it
Ugh that's horrible
just never be a prof here pls i dont wanna accidentally sign up for u
id drop the class entirely and wait next semester if theres not another fit
Tempting
technically speaking isnt that not allowed though
Cuz we r friends
like id have to pick a diff class
slso i jst dont want u seeing my handwriting on my paper.
Ugh I checked the class I just gave a talk in and it's been erased
I would've sent photos of my handwriting
@velvet dagger just pull some strings im sure you can get her friend in
this is why water is your favorite “seasoning” in cooking
wa la, steamed carrots




Oh right mb
silly goose
1 thing ab me is id never talk in math discussion
Maybe i have in the past but
🚫
sorry haven't seen this
yeah i'm patient lol
is beer your seasoning too?
i heard some like to put beer in their soups and ..
No comment
Did anyone say beer?
Breh
beer not fun without friends tho
u dont have to apologize just so yk
sometimes in a chili or a stew
it adds a nice rich wheatiness / bitterness
that rounds out the savory base of a stew and its herbs
but i wont use a malty beer, or a chocolatey one
what
some people like that and that's too crazy for me
theres chocolate beer too?
..
"stouts"
Yea nvm ppl who drink scare me officially now.
like guinness is the main example
stouts are kind of like coffee / the crazy 99% dark chocolates
not sweet or milky ofc
Ur scary
it's a canadian thing dw
jesus what is this
and then i had to go to the bar bathroom and throw up
Ryc accept my frq Pls
and then i had to wander deliriously back to my office at NYU
and then i had to pray none of the professors were there at 1am
U have an office??
and then i called my mom and told her i didnt know what to do, and she drove into nyc and drove me home
even though i was like 24
yes
aura ig
i share it with 2 people
2 other
but they're usually not there
cuz they're rich and have home offices ig
☠️
you said this like i was ignoring it, but i hadnt even gotten it yet...
Colby is not impressed.
I SENT ONE
temu colby L
ok
ok.
okay fine
his name is alex
that's so boring
let me think of a non mean nickname
depressed dodo bird?
no
Bro judged an entire guy based off their name 🥀
i agree some names r so hot but
ok well
Dont call others boring!
no no alex is a fine name
.
alex is a nice name, its just not compelling from a storytelling standpoint like colby is
LMFAO
could be L.I.
colby is compelling because:
- its very southern
- its a cheese
- its too much work to call him unconference bae all the time so i just started calling him colby
which 3 is a mistake cuz he has discord and might join here at any time
but w/e
i wanna name a a baby boy of mine theodore so bad
theodore is such a cute and adorable name.
theo is a good name
but i would never date a theo
not just theo
True
Theodorus
bro simps over a cheese
🐅
i really liked the name "dev", like "devin" is just fine but d3 used "dev" as an abbreviation and that was very nice and succinct
would u date someone with the same name as u
hahahaha
ive tried a few times
🧀 🤢
its very very low on my cheese tierlist
uhhhh its a bit odd
so when i was named my name
it was uncommon
but then like 4 years later it ended up in the top 5 boys names
Cottage cheese tier 0
LMFAO
and stayed there for a bit
so when i was a camp counselor
suddenly one year
there were all these kids with my name
so weird
bro says my name like its his
i never knew someone with my name before that
anyway, i have found a few other people with my name on dating apps and i will almost always approach them with "hey wouldnt this be funny as hell" if they're cute
but its never turned into a date
most of the time people who hear that are like "huh, no, that's weird as fuck"
oof
oh man this gives me alcoholism flashbacks lmao
i mean i dont see the issue of 2 of the same names dating but it can be annoying when it comes to referring either of them
(sees dragon milk 4 pack) I deserve a little treat (violently hungover next day and half)
oh yeah one of those guys was belgian and was just visiting :(
that was sad
he was sooo cute and nice
i think its just lke
odd
noo rip
or teddy
cuz you're used to hearing your name and not saying it
no.
yeahhh i told him if he visited nyc again to say hi and we would try to at least hang out for a while
thats fair
but we didnt meet while he was there
dang
ok so like
2 of my hottest boy names which i thought were hot before survivor but survivor made them hotter
because the guys with those names on survivor are perfect
are Hunter and Rome
ofoxtrot
@timid bronze omg you're so basic icl
