I am so anti-diamond that if a partner insisted on a diamond ring, I would have to think very hard about the whole relationship. Especially because it’s one of the less interesting stones, even ignoring all the scam and ethical issues.
10:30? More like whatever time it is in that frame plus however long it takes to walk to the car and say “good luck with your crazy father, but I’m out”.
And sometimes you have more than one variable. Now if you have n variables and n polynomials containing each of those variables and not coplanar with each other, you can solve for each of those variables by adding or subtracting multiples of those equations from each other and/or rearranging and substituting variables for their equivalent equations.
Now we’ll use this principle to write a ray tracer where we combine the equation for a line (that represents a ray traveling through a focal point and a pixel on a grid in front of that focal point) and the equation for a plane or other 3D primitive to find if they intersect and at what point if they do.
Next lecture we’ll have a guest speaker, the ghost of Joseph Fourier in to tell you why jpegs get more jpegy each time you jpeg them.
Any questions? Oh, actually we’ve run out of time and another class needs the room.
That gives me an idea for an invention. Hollow chopsticks so you can pump ketchup onto your sushi as you eat it. You could even stab it into it and do a ketchup injection!
I see this as an example of either how little some people making decisions in tech companies know about what people want or about how different the things I want are from the majority of people.
Yeah, and with the way social media works, there’s a decent chance that after establishing a pattern of being able to predict trends, you’ll be able to choose them. You don’t even have to be a social media manager to make money from that. Sell celebrity status. Or don’t when someone comes to you but you can’t predict them going viral.
Or on a different angle, you could predict stocks that are about to go viral. Depending on how far in advance, you’ll also be able to predict future events and things like election outcomes. If you use your power to become well known on social media and can get stuff about yourself trending, you’ll be able to predict your own life. And if you can set trends with self-fulfilling prophecies, you could start revolutions or bring down regimes (or at least generate popular opposition).
If it makes you feel any better, it’s probably hard to figure out when to get out. You’ll always feel like you can do just one more because the last one worked out so well, but each time you cash in, more people will see the truth and might want in on it until you find yourself in a situation where you can’t stop even if you wanted to because then the others who you are propping up will turn on you.
I mean, it sounds like he’s been done with the relationship for a long time. The official breakup might have been recent but the feelings sound long gone. As long as the other person is aware of the situation and is ok with it, I don’t see a problem. Though both of them should be aware that it might not work out, but really that’s every relationship.
It is overpowered af but don’t use it to get money. Use it to get the charisma glasses and each of the others during your first 12 hours (coincidently, they will all be close and easy to grab). Then attempt to write out an exhaustive list of any other objects or abilities that might threaten you (or maybe start with this one, as the glasses are the only one that threatens you from the original list). I’d say hopefully no one else has some other object or ability that warns them of anything that might threaten them, but yours might nullify theirs during your 12 hours. Attempt to deal with the list before half the time has passed.
Then start attempting to gain new abilities. Or attempt to find 28 more coins. 28 instead of 27 so that you can flip the next coin before the current one runs out and never fail the next flip. The sleep mask ensures you never sleep through a transition. Not that you’ll even need the ability to be constantly active.
