Good Day @DidierPiau

t.b.

@Gigili well, this doesn't look like an answerable question (except $k \leq n$)

David Wheeler

@tb not even with the constraint n/k < 2?

t.b.

well, if $k$ is given then $n$ could be anything between $k$ and $2k$ under this constraint. But probably I just don't understand the question.

Gigili

@tb I guessed so, nothing can be said about $n$ from the given information.

t.b.

oh, adam is in a conciliatory mood (at least by his standards)

Matt N.

22:07

We had kittens last summer. Anyone care to see some cuteness?

t.b.

of course!

Kannappan Sampath

@MattN Yes, I'd.

t.b.

here's a thread that should probably be closed

Matt N.

t.b.

sweet!

Matt N.

22:09

: )

There were 4. 3 white and the brown-black-white one.

Kannappan Sampath

@MattN Cute. : )

@tb Done!

math.stackexchange.com/q/117682/21436 Haven't we had enough questions like this one.

Matt N.

I miss the puppy : (

t.b.

@MattN I like the brown-black-white one very much.

Kannappan Sampath

@MattN Now why did you get rid of them?

Matt N.

@KannappanSampath We already have 3 cats : )

Kannappan Sampath

22:11

I like the legs of the right guy. It's kinda cute, you know.

Matt N.

They were quite cute. But so are the adult ones. Endless entertainment : )

Kannappan Sampath

My god, scary! : ) @MattN

Matt N.

Why? They're all nice : )

t.b.

Never mind. It's a wonderful answer but don't bother.

Matt N.

@tb You are sitting contradiction.

t.b.

22:16

I'm actually sitting right now...

Kannappan Sampath

@MattN Cute. He looks like the real king of the gang. : )

Matt N.

@KannappanSampath She thinks she is. But the boss is the tom:

^typical pose.

Kannappan Sampath

@MattN Funny. : ) Looks fluffy!

@MattN How do you know a cat is he or a she? (General Doubt.)

Matt N.

@KannappanSampath He is. On this picture he's less fluffy because I shave them (otherwise he pukes and white hair on black clothes is a lot of work : /)

@KannappanSampath You can tell if you look at their behinds.

Here.

Kannappan Sampath

@MattN Ah thanks. Clear.

Matt N.

22:22

Ok. Now I've bored you enough with cat pictures. : ) You may now go back to talking about maths. : )

Kannappan Sampath

@MattN No you haven't. Seriously, those were cute. : )

Matt N.

: )

Jonas Teuwen

Omg, I'm melting of cuteness.

t.b.

@robjohn looks like Dave Renfro saved you some work :)

Matt N.

@JonasTeuwen : D

What does $\stackrel{\large\wedge}{\odot}$ mean?

t.b.

22:24

@MattN capped.

Matt N.

Oh.

t.b.

fifteen points to waste already...

Jonas Teuwen

No problem!

robjohn

@tb I see :-)

Jonas Teuwen

Matt N.

22:26

@JonasTeuwen This looks like pedo bear! : D

Jonas Teuwen

ᶘ ᵒᴥᵒᶅ√

Kannappan Sampath

Probably a cat, I assume

Matt N.

@JonasTeuwen Cat tick?

Jonas Teuwen

(pedobear approved).

Just looked funny.

Matt N.

: D

I'll say it again: Jonas, you are so funny!

Jonas Teuwen

22:28

I am?

Matt N.

Yes.

Jonas Teuwen

I subscribed to be a human book for the human library.

t.b.

@robjohn well, he didn't really save you some work, but his resurrected sci.math posts are mostly extremely entertaining...

Jonas Teuwen

Then people come and listen to you. Cool, huh?

Matt N.

Weird.

Jonas Teuwen

22:29

Anyway, I would want to talk about the differences between the Dutch and decent people.

t.b.

(in the sense that you can find a lot of worthwhile information)

Matt N.

@JonasTeuwen Wot? o_0

I think I'm going to have a beer.

Jonas Teuwen

Good idea! :D.

Matt N.

One Perroni is left so it has to be consumed before it expires and goes to waste.

t.b.

@MattN Clausthal will be grateful

Oh, surprised again...

Matt N.

22:30

@tb Again?

There are some Clausthaler and I really like them (even have had them with breakfast : )) but there is also the real deal and I fancy one now.

t.b.

good.

Matt N.

Mainly because I'm bored and tired but not sleepy : /

t.b.

not so good.

Jonas Teuwen

Alcohol really messes with your sleep. Srsly.

t.b.

@MattN first time today was the non-pun-carrot, second time the resolution of the mystery, third time with the argument clinic and now.

Matt N.

22:33

@tb I'm glad I can surprise you. Means you're not bored to death. : )

t.b.

@MattN I'm not.

I simply misunderstood in a completely innocent way...

Matt N.

@tb Your reply was whether I wanted to make you blush. Why would you blush?

t.b.

I usually don't blush if I have my mind in the gutter...

Matt N.

Hah! You are seriously claiming that my harmless comment was turned into a NSFW comment by another harmless comment?

Jonas Teuwen

Ich möchte ein eisbär sein im kalten polar.

Matt N.

22:36

: D

@tb : O

Peroni Nasty Azzurro : /

t.b.

@JonasTeuwen denn Eisbären müssen nie weinen.

Kannappan Sampath

I want to be a polar bear in the cold polar.

Jonas Teuwen

@tb Yes!

Matt N.

What is this?

Jonas Teuwen

@KannappanSampath You too? Cool!

Kannappan Sampath

22:38

@JonasTeuwen Definitely yes. I am dying of summer here! : )

Matt N.

@KannappanSampath I think you don't really because then hoomins will come hunt you down and lock you up in a zoo.

Jonas Teuwen

Yes, MattN kill many bear.

And have many wives.

t.b.

:)

Matt N.

You make lol, Jonas.

Kannappan Sampath

MattN is singular. : )

t.b.

22:39

Jeeezas, Jonas, you should stop turning wine into whisky

@MattN try the first Google hit of what Jonas wrote in German.

Matt N.

Eww. Three sips and I already the unpleasant feeling alcohol induces in me. I'd rather have angels piss into my mouth. I'm going to pour this down the drain.

t.b.

You won't like it, though...

Well, you still have Clausthaler...

Gigili

@tb His sentence is not correct, is it?

Matt N.

@tb You are right : ) You have me all figured out. So I won't be able to surprise you anymore. : )

@tb Good idea.

Jonas Teuwen

You still have Claus? What the heck is Claus?

Skullpatrol

22:44

@Gigili Wasting time on the internet is the sad reality of the internet age.

t.b.

@Gigili No it isn't.

Matt N.

@JonasTeuwen My second wife.

t.b.

It's for the sake of the rhyme on "lar." throughout the song.

@MattN I don't know anybody who likes the song...

Matt N.

I wonder why people like this drowsy feeling of intoxication. : (

t.b.

Nevertheless it became a huge hit.

Matt N.

22:46

@tb I assume Jonas does.

Jonas Teuwen

Well, basically, @MattN, in my case it is because my head thinks very stupid things very fast. It slows it down a bit.

Gigili

@tb Aha, thank you.

Jonas Teuwen

I love it, it is one of the best things Germany has ever produced.

Matt N.

@tb Maybe in Germany only : ) Like David Hasselhoff.

Skullpatrol

Bay Watch's David Hasselhoff?

Gigili

22:47

@Skullpatrol You're right as always, but I'd ask you to stop announcing that please.

Matt N.

@JonasTeuwen I quite like many things Germany produces. Like beer, for example.

t.b.

@JonasTeuwen I need a whole lot of intoxication to be able to suffer through it.

Matt N.

@Skullpatrol No, his music.

@tb Are you intoxicated right now? : )

Jonas Teuwen

@tb Exactly.

If you start liking it you know that you should stop drinking.

Skullpatrol

@Gigili Okay

Jonas Teuwen

22:49

It's like the indicator for the point-of-no-return.

Gigili

@Skullpatrol Thank you for your attention anyway.

t.b.

@MattN Not really. I had two beers. I was about to write to be a whole lot more intoxicated and forgot to remove the to be in the reformulation.

Matt N.

@JonasTeuwen Ok. But that doesn't explain why others like it. It's like being in a daze. Even further from the real part of life away than I already am.

Skullpatrol

@Gigili I believe you're worth it.

Jonas Teuwen

Real[Life] = 0?

t.b.

22:50

Stop this Mma crap, already!

:)

Kannappan Sampath

No, $\Im(Life)=0$.

Jonas Teuwen

Mixed Martial Arts?

Skullpatrol

life=life

Jonas Teuwen

Don't copy me. I want to remain authentic and this way, when you improve my stupid jokes I'm unable to do so.

t.b.

@Skullpatrol nah nah na nana

David Wheeler

22:52

hello world

robjohn

Jonas Teuwen

Or how about the crash test dummies? Mmmmmm.

Gigili

In which language?

David Wheeler

sorry about that, apparently i got a master control command from the interwebz

Skullpatrol

@tb life is life la la la la

t.b.

22:53

@JonasTeuwen I loved when they had to announce that song on the radio :)

David Wheeler

i've gotta start remembering to unplug that thing

robjohn

@tb this time done with Mathematica :-)

Gigili

@DavidWheeler Pah, I thought that was one of your wise comments.

Matt N.

I vowed to not do memes anymore.

t.b.

@robjohn that's way better.

Jonas Teuwen

22:54

8-).

t.b.

@Skullpatrol heh! got it... I thought I'm too old for this world to still get references to Opus

Matt N.

Bleh. Now my cheeks feel all hot. I really don't like alcohol. : (

t.b.

Oh no, Gigili's gone!

Jonas Teuwen

That just means you don't drink it often enough. Practice makes perfect 8-).

David Wheeler

@Gigili so now its "pah" is it? i'm hurt. and lord inglip...really, just....

Gigili

22:55

@tb :D

t.b.

phew

Jonas Teuwen

Don't worry, your Lord is here.

Jonas Teuwen

Next week is my diploma ceremony... I need to wear something "decent".

I'm afraid I don't have anything decent 8-).

Matt N.

Then buy something : ) Or skip the diploma ceremony.

Jonas Teuwen

22:57

I can't skip it. If I skip it I have to go to the next one.

t.b.

@JonasTeuwen Do you have to comb your hair, too?

Jonas Teuwen

Plus my professor will be there in toga, then he will have to do this monkey dressup for nothing.

@tb I certainly hope not!

Matt N.

Wot? Why is that? If you don't they'll just post the piece of paper to your home.

Jonas Teuwen

Yes, I did that with my BSc, but it was quite some fuzz.

Plus it is not a piece of paper, it is in a red carton tube.

Matt N.

Woow.... : )

Jonas Teuwen

22:59

Very Expensive Toilet Paper.

Skullpatrol

@tb LIFE; IS LIFE NA NA, NANA NA
