Once you guys figure out what the initialism in ITT Tech stands for, can you please tell me what University of Maryland University College is? I think it's a school or something but I'm not certain.
Well.
It's obvious.
It's to teach Mary Mary how to be quite contrary.
I mean duh.

Every time I see ITT I'm reminded of ITT tech, and I want to know what the T's stand for.
I thought I solved it once, then I realized that "Tech" comes after the "ITT" part. So the word "Technology" isn't one of them.
What the hell?
That's where I begin. And then I think "Isn't tech short for Technical Institute? So what's the I?"
Maybe it's French and abbreviated like how SI stand for International System of Units even though there are not enough letters and they're in the wrong order.
...That's cause it's in French, the translation is in English
So, right, I'm trying to figure this out... the Big-Oh of this:
If I have N people in a room all shake hands with each other, assuming only 2 people can shake hands at once:
Then, let's see, it would take how many handshakes... so, lets see
for example n=5
then i'd have these pairs
1-2
1-3
1-4
1-5
2-3
2-4
2-5
3-4
3-5
4-5
so that's like 1+2+3+4 = 10 for n = 5
so 6 would be 1+2+3+4+5+6 = 16 for n = 6
23 for n = 7
which is a bit less than n^2/2
so it would be O(N^2), correct??!?!
but then how might I explain how I got to this answer?!

Is this where I translate it back into French like in the Jumping Frog story?
I don't actually try to change anyone's mind regarding a religion. I interpret what they are saying in terms of more helpful practical stuff, but if they want to believe in a god I will take no action. I just seethe.
Nobody is going to care what I say about it on here though, or be convinced by me. It's too impersonal for something like that.
Well, you may not realize it, I honestly don't know. But they can tell. You may not consciously reject them as people because of their faith, but if you honestly feel that strongly about it there's no way it doesn't influence your actions on some level.
Extreme beliefs inevitably lead to extreme positions, and sometimes to extreme actions, and a country full of extremists doesn't get people like Barack Obama. They get people like George Bush or Richard Dawkins.
Zimmydoom, Zimmydoom
Flew away in a balloon
Had sex with polar bears
While sitting in a reclining chair
Now there are Zim-Bear hybrids
Running around and clawing eyelids
Watch out, a Zim-Bear is about to have sex with yooooooou!
The book love thread is a bit depressing. I dunno, I'm sort of scared by the thought that C.J. Cherryh changed someone's life.
Wait, it was supposed to be stuff that changed our lives? What's the criteria for this? I just listed an author who writes books that I enjoy reading quite a bit.
Also: Why does she scare you more than Eddings or Robert Jordan or whoever else people normally hate?

I give off an aura that I consciously reject people I like, I've long since given up trying to control my outside emotional projection considering I have enough trouble trying to control my internal. To me it's like trying to work one of those steam punk mechas from inside the cockpit when you don't know how all the little dials have to be set to get and get or instead.
My gf is always wondering if I'm angry with her and I'm not, I'm genuinely not, but the dial is stuck on frown and raised voice from interacting with, say, an irritating assignment or something, and i can't work out how to stop it before talking.
I absolutely get your point but I pretty much just treat any stranger with a ready smile and a canned soothing acceptance regardless of what opinion they express.

If N people shake the hands of N people, You'd have N * N people shaking hands. But because A shaking B's hand is the same as B shaking A's hand, everything is duplicate, so the total amount of of handshakes is N*N/2
EDIT i'm stupid because this also has A shaking the hand of A. One sec

Does this include Eddy?

Do you really want them?
This is the first time this has ever happened.
Bad news, we can't seem to wire them to you, it seems the lines are down. Been like that for decades, really wish the government would step up.

Like when your lips say no but that ass is saying yes?

Mostly I'm quite glad that I'm concealing my advanced state of drunkenness quite well in that photo.
Happy Birthday!

I am!
Run it past us a few more times and then we'll tell you.
Of all the adjectives I was expecting, "cute" was not one of them.

so you have five entities, and you want to investigate how many unique pairings
the number of non-unique pairings would be n^2, so wouldn't the number of non-unique pairings for groupings of x=2 be uhm
n-1 + n-2 + n-3 + n-4 + n-5 ... for all non-zero positive values
4 + 3 + 2 + 1
so isn't it just a sigma notation?
I'm sort of scared by the thought that any work of fiction changed someone's life.
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
You are though, in that big cuddly teddy bear way.
Freud changed a lot of lives.
YES I WENT THERE.
