@Jan of course... we don't want to be responsible for anybody getting fired

Or in my case, failing exams. But I didn't fail, so... :)

I was rofl when I saw "double benzene".

I argue that organic chemistry is superficially similar to some aspect of abstract algebra

e.g. we can consider the axioms and theorems as reagents, reaction conditions.

A proof is then basically a question on how you can synthesize the product (what you try to prove) from a starting material (the starting point of a proof) using the reagents given (theorems, lemmas and axioms of the algebraic structure)

One major difference, however is the reaction yield is 100% for the maths, but not in chemistry

@orthocresol @jan I'm waiting for my code to compile

@DSVA @Mith @Pritt today has been an interesting day

@M.A.R. Was it?

I see three interesting questions

At least in cha at

Wth chat

@M.A.R. Huh?

@Mith I'm on a very very slow mobile, so all hope of understanding what I said is lost. Autocorrect autocorrected chat to cha at and I was expressing surprise

I see I was pinged.

And I'm not sure if today was an interesting day or not, but I'm happy that it is one for you.

Unless you mean "interesting" in a sarcastic way, in such case I feel sorry for you

Forgot to ping @M.A.R.

@Mithoron You haven't replied to my replies to your comments, is it possibly because I pinged incorrectly and you didn't get notified?

@PrittBalagopal I saw your comments, don't worry

I'm probably not gonna answer this though :(

Is that possible to get a amide function starting from an isocyanate and an organomagnesium ?
