Is this the place for IDE chatter? I just use Notepad++, it's simple and clean. I'm not a fan of fancy macros or boot times longer than half a second.

for this though, I'm kind of stuck, I'm guessing you factorise and then put it into brackets? this is from the calculator part lower down
Consider: (n^5 * 10n)/(2n^2) = (10n^6)/(2n^2). You should know what to do from there.

« on: May 06, 2016, 08:20:01 PM »assuming you're talking about eugene, oregon, that's not a small city
I find it pretty small, though that's probably because I'm used to Seattle.
Are you going to go to it?
You should go, either for keks or support. I don't regret going to the one here.
If I was more adventurous I would. I scoped out the venue a bit on my way back from work and there were already police officers and news helicopters canvassing the area. Big media events like this just make me feel nervous.

Annoying Orange's speaking in my city today. I live within walking distance from the venue. And here I thought my small city would be able to escape the hustle and bustle of the elections.

I personally can't see the appeal, and this is coming from someone who likes old first person shooters. I don't see much information about what kind of game it'll be aside from the PR fill, and the lack of any in-engine shots is alarming. The projected Winter 2018 release also isn't a good sign: most Kickstarter campaigns drastically underestimate how long their project will take.
I predict an underwhelming product even if their funding goals are met.

It's nice. People should be encouraged to do whatever they want to. I can't comment on their efficacy though - one would think students nearing graduation would've already decided their major.

It's a start. They're still sadly endangered and killed at high levels - it's estimated over 5000 exist 'off the books' in illegal facilities where they're harvested for their bones. You can see some really chilling pictures if you google around.
Still, it's overall good news. Hopefully we can pass the 5000 milestone.

Remember to make eye contact with the interviewer, though not too much.

The Diamond is Unbreakable anime aired yesterday. I'm a little let down by the animation quality.

« on: March 29, 2016, 01:22:31 AM »Yeah, I remember it was a bumpy ride when I had to get them put on and them taken off within a month, it hurt like a bitch. Time to relive it soon lolYou ever try clenching your teeth with newly placed braces? The inwards pressure on your teeth directs itself upwards. It's such an odd feeling.

That's rough. I had braces when I was younger and I can empathize with how that feels. It's a major relief once they're finally off for good though; your bare teeth feel unnaturally smooth for a bit.

If you want to fall asleep you shouldn't be using your computer or phone, they'll only keep you up. Turn everything off and lay in bed with your eyes closed and try to focus solely on your breathing. I suffer from regularly interrupted sleep and this works for me more often than not.

Imgur seems to love that comic, it's been on their front page at least once before. Something about cute girls and Riddler humor must appeal to its users.
