It would be very nice to have a chat that used the same user/password database as this forum. It should be possible, but I wonder if there is such a chat suiteable for this exact forum?(or something that needed minor tweaking). It would make it much easier to control abuse etc that way, wouldn't it?

thinkdesigns - isn't that why it's so interresting? tongue

Jimmymcjummingtin - You have to imagine a set


where the three dots represent an infinite amount of the preceding number. This gives you an infinite amount of 1's, followed by an infinite amount of 2's and then an infinite amount of 3's and so on. Ricky's claim is then that the set would only include 1's, since the proceding numbers wouldnt be included(you can't reach an infinite amount of 1's, which you would need to move on to filling in 2's). Dunno if it helps(or if it's correct? smile)

The reason I'm asking this, and not just doing it, is due to the policy on this forum about private messages, exchange of personal information etc. I wanted to ask ganesh a question the other day, that wasn't relevant to any topics(I've forgotten it now, however smile). I then wanted to write a private message to him, but found out I couldn't. There was no mail-funtion either(you normally don't have to know the persons email to do this).

"What is the question?" you might ask. And here it is smile:
Would it, if I made one, be okay to advertice for an IRC-channel in my signature? This would give the members a choice to write to each other, if both persons agreed upon it. If you moderators/admins don't approve, I won't do it. So what I'm asking for, is basicly a up or down

Tamagotchi-girl . As it has been said, it okay for you to be under 10 years and have msn. That's cool. The problem is that there might be some people(read:old men in particular) who could be using such information to do, well, bad things. If you want to find people to write with on msn, or any other IM, a chat-room would probally be a better choice. But please stay here, and talk about math with people of all ages smile

Hehe, is it boring because you think it's hard, or because you can't see how you'll ever be needing it?

#691 Re: This is Cool » Horraaaaaay!!! :-d :-d :-d » 2006-04-16 06:42:15

#692 Re: Help Me ! » need triangle measurement » 2006-04-16 06:34:05

Hmm, let me guess, you've never used the formula have you? It should be pretty straight forward if you had..

<- this is the formula I'm talking about..

If you havn't, you might wonna look a bit at this link: Mathsisfuns's explanation of the method

I'm not sure I understand what you mean, but I'm pretty sure that the good old Pythagorean Theorem is the tool you need

It's a joke tigeree.. Instead of a real article about "The Cure for Information Overload", it's an overload of useless information in itself..

#696 Re: Dark Discussions at Cafe Infinity » The Cure for Information Overload » 2006-04-07 11:31:04

That was alot better tongue only thing is that you don't capitalize languages(Dansk = dansk), and there should either be a ' after "ka", or it should be "kan".. smile

#697 Re: Jokes » Funny jokes » 2006-04-07 08:47:58

Fornøjelse ? ^^ I guess your mean it's amusing? It would be more normal to say "sjovt", but "fornøjelse" goes..
