charon 4,943 Posted January 21, 2017 A few , that's not how it works. How many English PMs got elected with 20 votes North of the Wall? You hear me complaining? Lol. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WednesdayAddams 103 Posted January 21, 2017 How many Presidents have been sworn in with less votes gained than their rival? In recent times, only George W Bush who lost the popular vote to Al Gore and the margin was a lot smaller than Trump/Clinton. You have to go back over 100 years to the previous ones.

drol 11,932 Posted January 21, 2017 Anyone able to help with division by zero? Does it equal infinity (as Google calculator suggests) or 0? No. It is indeterminate. Example: 6 / 2 = 3. Then working back 3 x 2 =6. 6/0 = ?. But ? x 0 = 0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero so you can't work back therefore it's indeterminate. The limit (right or left) of a positive number divided for a positive zero (or 0+) is positive infinity. The limit of a positive number divided for negative zero (0-) is a negative infinite. Anyway it's not and indetermination form as the function does not exist in the point you are considering (discontinuity on R) but you can still calculate left/right limits which don't require the function's existence in that point. 0/0, inifinity/infinity, inifinity*0, 1^infinity, inifinity less/plus infinity are forms of indetermination that remain even after the partial aritmetization of inifinity simble.

That's what I said. It's not indeterminate. Simply it does not exist. Limits tending to it may exist because they don't need the function's existence in a point, but 6/0 is not an indecision form. 1)It does not exist on Real Numbers (may be a second grade discontinuity) 2)his right/left limit exist and are infinity 0/0 is indeterminate cause it can generate every number; 6/0 can not generate anything. That's why limits were invented. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,131 Posted January 28, 2017 More spam in the post from the British Legion. This time it's the Poppy Appeal Raffle. First prize is an Alfa Romeo OR a new kitchen OR £15,000. They want to know which prize I want if I win: I have to put the appropriate sticker on the envelope. My questions are Why do they need to know now? Could there be a tactical advantage in selecting a particular prize and if so, which? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Handrejka 1,903 Posted February 14, 2017 Can somenone explain the Roey Juss joke for me. I don't get it. I thought about created a thread for deathlist in-jokes you don't get but didn't think it was worth it. However, it's been bugging me so please explain. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still don't get it. Is Roey Juss slang for something I don't understand? Did you transpose letters often in your posts or something? Why Roey Juss as opposed to Our Jessy for example?

msc 18,438 Posted February 14, 2017 The joke would have worked better for Korbid Mid, but the timing has long since gone... When Joey showed up last year, there seemed to be the widespread belief he was a Zorders type or even Zorders himself. Then Caisson showed up, a disguise so flimsy even I saw through it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If his name had to be misspelt it could be based off one of his "typos". Like spelling it Morbidquidd ala Luke Halquinn. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
