Re: 10 second questions
Hi ganesh;
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on.

Re: 10 second questions

Re: 10 second questions
Then the world is full of idiots. My parents, my teachers and this one really hurt, my bosses! All, did not call me brilliant. My parents were disappointed in me. My teachers hated me. My bosses terminated me.
I do appreciate you saying that though. You are a nice person.

Re: 10 second questions
Firstly, I want to apologize to Ganesh for bringing up irrelevent posts. However, whoever was disappointed in you is unable to comprehend what you are potentially capable of (with all due respect to your parents) and what you already have accomplished. As for me being nice, for this matter I was not. I was simply being honest.
