Why are you throwing money away?

[Yoink]

Right, I finally found some old friends who I never really knew well anyway.
NOW I CAN SLEEP

[Levi]

*Goes to long term chart*

Oh my. If they're not about to get litigated or go into bankruptcy you should consider a move to average down. Unless you're willing to take the hit and wait it out.

Well, at this point I might as well wait it out.  I figure it doesn't really matter if I lose the last couple thousand.  I did learn a lot from this one though, I take a much closer look at a companies debt before buying these days.

I want to play Watch_Dogs, but my laptop runs it like crap at lowest settings. I could run it on my desktop if I had it, but I don't. I was thinking of using something like OnLive, since I have a decent connection speed most of the time, but I'm not even sure they have the game. What do I do? I really want to play this game!

[Descan]

I'm sad because I'm pretty good at calculus...

Except for this one piece of shit rule, that I can never remember and never realize when I should use it.

Example would be differentiating 500 / 1 + e^(-t)

I kiiiind of understand how that turns into 500e^(-t) / (1+e^-t)^2 .... Sorta? But only in hindsight, I can't do it on my own. And again, even if I knew the exact steps down to the detail... when I get a question like that, I don't remember jack-all about what rule goes where and what type of differentiation I'm supposed to do!

It's all well and good to be able to bat a ball out of the park, but you KIND OF have to know when you're supposedto fucking swing your bat, eh?

uh deschan i think you're going to need to sit down for this

[Tack]

Last night, stores were closed, couldn't read the final Dresden.
Today, busy all day, couldn't read the latest Dresden.
HAVE ORAL ASSIGNMENT TOMORROW MORNING, WON'T BE ABLE TO READ LATEST DRESDEN.

It sits upon my desk and mocks me.

Slowpoke-senpai, I'm worried about it because I've only an 88 global average and I need to retain above an 80 to keep my scholarship ;-;

no deschen it's just that both these people have been dead for over two centuries i'm sorry to break it to you like this

[Steelmagic]

So, a bit back when our dining room flooded the guy who came to fix it had to knock holes in the drywall to find the source, the guy to fix the drywall came and I took my dogs onto the porch to keep them out of his way and quiet. Unfortunately while I was out there I accidentally knocked over one of my Granny's flower pots. It's not exactly major, but I don't like breaking people's stuff like that.

If it's specifically fractions you have a problem with, it is possible to just change them to negative indices and use chain rule.

ie. (500) (1+e^(-t))^-1

Chain rule being d(uv) == u d(v) + v d(u)

[Descan]

Chain rule is the rule that I have trouble remember to use and how to do, actually.

So, I know you meant well, but you basically just said "Having trouble? Just do the thing you're having trouble with, it's no big deal~!"

[sjm9876]

I did chuck in the last bit in case that was the problem, but I can't really explain it better than that, so yeah :/

[Descan]

Yeah, I keep writing that stuff down, but it's like the one bit that doesn't stick :v

[sjm9876]

I can genuinely say that with maths practice helps much more.
At least for me. Then again, me and maths have an understanding.
Worth a shot at least (though I assume you've already been practicing anyway)
