Yo
 
user185131
Apparently there is a feature that allows you to move messages from one room to another, if you're a room owner.
 
user185131
So, we've still got the previous transcripts with us in this new room
 
user185131
@ViditD How's life going, bro? :)
 
user185131
10:42 AM
I'm awaiting your reply to my "Letters" eagerly :)
 
Nice! Life's moving like a retard but ok, I'm psyched about tomorrows exam GS 2020
I'll send the reply to the letters tomorrow
 
user185131
Ohh, it's tomorrow? Sahi, all the best bro. Do well (Y)
 
user185131
What's the center for the exam?
 
Thanks! Its in a nearby college
 
user185131
I see
 
user185131
10:51 AM
How's the prep? Feeling good about it?
 
user185131
:)
 
don't feel anything really
done a bit work to be modest
 
user185131
@ViditD Didn't follow, what do you mean bro?
 
About the preparations, didn't do anything special, just solved some papers and I don't have any anxiousness (neither positive nor negative) about the exams.
 
user185131
@ViditD Ahh, okay
 
10:58 AM
Do you notice any improvements in the UIs or functionalities of these chatrooms?
 
user185131
Not really
 
user185131
I don't think SE chat has received any improvements over many years
 
user185131
But, I vaguely recall some improvement was made to the mobile UI? Not sure, though
 
user185131
@toric_actions Yo bro
 
Hello @Brahadeesh and @ViditD
Was catching up on the chat so far.
 
user185131
11:01 AM
@toric_actions How's the weather? :D
 
All the best bro @ViditD
Foggy and cold :P.
 
Thanks Brother @toric_actions
Snowing? @toric_actions
 
Got ill this week and still recovering so this week was like a disaster for me. :(
 
user185131
Uggh...what happened? :(
 
user185131
@ViditD +1. Snowing?
 
11:03 AM
@ViditD It usually snows late in the evenings half of the week.
It's not very frequent right now.
 
user185131
(Oh wait, there's a starring system to +1, totally forgot about that.)
 
@Brahadeesh Cold, cough and fever. Do you remember in IISERB once you had this terrible cough where you had to keep spitting in order to not accumulate cough?
 
user185131
Yup. Still keeps happening to me once every year, like a ritual :/
 
@Brahadeesh That's more like bookmark, right?
@Brahadeesh yeah, that's sad.
 
every season change
 
user185131
11:05 AM
@toric_actions Yeah, but it can double up as a +1-ing system too
 
user185131
@ViditD True
 
Here, it was like viral or something, some of my teachers, flatmates had it too.
@Brahadeesh Yes.
 
user185131
@toric_actions Do you have to handle your own medical expenses?
 
@ViditD You in Kolkata, bro?
 
@toric_actions @Brahadeesh+1 medical expenses?
@toric_actions yup
 
11:07 AM
@Brahadeesh Yes. I have a medical insurance (compulsory but also essential). However the problem is the absence of mrp has led to arbitrary high prices of medicines to the extent that it's illogical.
@ViditD Let us know how the exam goes tomorrow?
PS: Is there grammatical error in the above question?
 
user185131
@toric_actions Ohh I see
 
@toric_actions Sure bro! and I don't think so..., although it's extremely inconsiderate of post exam stress disorders :P
 
user185131
@toric_actions I don't think so, but maybe "Let us know how the exam tomorrow goes" is more accurate.
 
Ok
@ViditD I can relate to that.
 
user185131
@ViditD May no such disorders come your way!
 
11:12 AM
Varun was a great stress reliever for me personally. :P
 
user185131
@toric_actions What's he up to these days? :)
 
He's a TA at IISER Pune.
 
user185131
Oh, interesting
 
user185131
Is IISER Pune the only IISER with separate TA positions?
 
11:26 AM
IISER Tirupati also has it for obvious reasons. :P
 
@toric_actions I think IISER Tirupati doesn't have those positions anymore
 
Oh, I didn't know the current status.
 
Only IISER Pune offers such positions in order to reduce the work load of faculties and students.
 
@ShubhamNamdeo Yo bro
 
Yo.... How are you bro?
 
11:35 AM
@ShubhamNamdeo Earlier I had heard that Georgy was a TA at IISER Tirupati.
@ShubhamNamdeo Doing good. How's life at IIT Indore?
 
12:00 PM
I am good. Learning PDEs..
Ohh.. I see. I didn't know about that Georgy was a TA at IISER Tirupati.
 
12:22 PM
@ShubhamNamdeo That's nice. Is it fun?
 
1:01 PM
can anyone tell me why is $\frac{sin x}{\vert x\vert + cos x}$ differentiable
 
 
6 hours later…
user185131
7:11 PM
@ViditD The only problematic point is $x = 0$, so let us check there. If $f(x)$ is the given function, then for $h > 0$ we have $(f(h) - f(0)) / h = \frac{\sin(h)}{h(h + \cos(h))} = \frac{\sin(h)/h}{h + \cos(h)}$. So, in the limit $h \to 0^+$, we have that $(f(h) - f(0))/h \to 1$.
 
user185131
@ViditD Similarly, let $h > 0$ and consider $(f(-h) - f(0))/(-h)$. This equals $\frac{\sin(-h)}{-h(h + \cos(-h))} = \frac{\sin(h)/h}{h + \cos(h)}$. Again, in the limit $h \to 0^+$, we have that $(f(-h) - f(0))/(-h) \to 1$.
 
user185131
Since the left and right hand limits exist and are equal, the given function $f$ is differentiable at $x = 0$. Hence, it is differentiable everywhere.
 
user185131
@ShubhamNamdeo Yo bro
