For dragon enthusiasts
I’m deeply conflicted about Oppenheimer.
Not apathetic, as in I don’t care enough to have an opinion. I’m not mildly ambivalent as I am with many good action movies. The fight scenes are fine, the script is terrible, but it is what it is.
No I feel with passionate intensity both affection and dislike for the movie, and I’m not sure what to make of that. I haven’t felt truly conflicted about a movie in years.
This is probably the mark of good cinema.
Is a tectonic plate simulator. This is insanely cool for worldbuilding.

I’m going to name my huge yacht Humility, my smaller yacht Annabel Lee, and the little plastic floaty The Magnificent.

Okay, like, that’s awesome.
She smiles in her sleep. I want a dog.
I want to go to a snowy city on the beach and watch snow fall on the ocean. I will drink something warm and listen to the silence.
Sports score couplets are vectors. They have at least one component and a particular order. The specific order isn’t the criteria; that there is an order is the criteria.
However that doesn’t mean that vectors require two or more components. A single component can be a vector.
Example: score differentials. Last week JMU lost 38-45 to Georgia Southern. The differential was -7. That differential is a vector.
It’s got at least one component, the 7, with a particular order. The order is the order of the two teams. The differential could be +7, with direction reversed but magnitude the same, provided the order is reversed. +7 would be the Georgia-JMU differential. Single component, particular order.
Put another way, a vector is an amplitude and a direction. The 7 is the amplitude, the +/- is the direction.
This is why all negative numbers are vectors. They address a state of change, and the order of the components changing is the order of this small vector.
I just bought a $100 calculator.
Normally I’m in one of two regimes: $15 calculators or computer software (Matlab, Mathematica, etc.). I infrequently need something inbetween.
However, for some tests I now do, and the quick and dirty TI 30XIIS has hit its limits. Those limits aren’t excessive naming symbols. I got a TI 83+, which apparently isn’t one of the current really good graphing calculators. For me, it’s night and day. It can invert complex functions with a press of a button. I don’t slog through radian/degree conversions. The thing does full on matrix multiplication without dropping negative signs. It’s like seeing dawn.
Still, for a hundred bucks, it better knock my socks off.
It did.
747 pulled a win out?
I guess 901 in the Monday matchup, and 747 to win it all.
I like jiu jitsu.
