@Argon I have that effect

Old John

@robjohn but we all know you are not that mean :)

robjohn

@Argon $\color{#FFA000}{\boxed{\stackrel{\stackrel{\hskip{1pt} \large\diagdown\hskip{6pt}\diagup} {\huge\bullet\hskip{7pt}\huge\bullet}} {\hskip{-2pt}\huge_\phantom{\tiny }\frown_\phantom{\tiny }}}}$

Argon

${\Large\color{#FF9900}{\blacksquare}}\raise{1pt}=$ robjohn

robjohn

@Argon Close... #FFA000 At least that was used to generate the gravatar

Argon

You can change it then :)

@argon I got your supersecret email!

Peter Sheldrick

it's not supersecret if you post about it in a public chat

Argon

user19161

@PeterSheldrick Well, I can talk about it but you don't know its contents! =)

user19161

@Argon HAHAHAHAHAHA

Peter Sheldrick

super wind up

@robjohn He wouldn't happen to be a topologist would he?

Being in the neighborhood watch, and all.

user19161

That is too sophisticated to be funny @anon.

anon

sophisticated?

user19161

Well, maybe you think top so topology so neighbourhood. Yeah, I prefer dumb jokes.

Argon

22:18

Neighbourhood watch? $|z-z_0| < \epsilon$

user19161

245 today, awesome.

anon

@JasperLoy google image search the phrase "neighborhood watch"

user19161

The weird thing is I usually get many votes in rapid succession after capping, I wonder if they purposely do that...

Peter Sheldrick

yes, the people who upvote you actually hate you

they upvote out of spite

user19161

To make me feel the pain of losing rep, yes.

Argon

22:29

Hahaha

user19161

22:45

@Argon It's Fri here.

Argon

@JasperLoy So it is!

user19161

@Argon Fun fun fun fun

Argon

Looking forward to the weekend!

user19161

HAHAHAHAHA

Argon

@PeterTamaroff Hi!

Peter Tamaroff

22:53

I should quit maths and start with a comedy career

@Argon Why, hello.

Argon

Because, hello.

CBenni

mmh

I asked a question on Math.SE

but it wasnt answered

Peter Tamaroff

@CBenni ORLY?

CBenni

got only 12 views and fell to thread hell

any way to bump it?

Peter Sheldrick

22:59

bounty it?

Argon

You might get a nice tumbleweed!

Link

What question?

user19161

@CBenni Edit it and make some improvements.

CBenni

you require high reputation for bounty I guess

Jayesh Badwaik

@PeterTamaroff you'll be penniless. :P

user19161

23:00

@petert Now I have 8.6k, I think I can befriend you.

CBenni

I dont know how you earn rep, I havent earned any at all ^^

Peter Sheldrick

@JasperLoy, hmm tbh i wasn't aware of rep caps and now this befriending is new to me to

Link

LOL

Peter Sheldrick

oh the other peter?

user19161

@PeterSheldrick Sorry, it was addressed to the great Pedro.

Peter Sheldrick

23:01

who?

Argon

@robjohn I have a question

Peter Sheldrick

tam?

Argon

Yep

user19161

@PeterSheldrick Yes, Pedro Tam.

Peter Sheldrick

Argon

23:02

Manischewitz Tam Tams

user19161

I shall call you the great @argon!

Argon

@JasperLoy What earned me, the humble Argon, this title?

robjohn

@Argon Do you?

@JasperLoy That would be the Noble Argon

Argon

@robjohn Yep. I'm reading your answer here, but I still don't understand why $i \pi$ are multiplied w/ the residues.

@robjohn groans

robjohn

@Argon The integral around the full singularity is $2\pi i$ times the residue...

Argon

23:06

@robjohn "Full singularity?"

robjohn

@Argon The integral around half the singularity is $\pi i$ times the residue...

Argon

@robjohn It also seems to me that no residues are in the contour!

robjohn

@Argon There aren't. That is why $(2)$ holds.

Argon

So why can residues be used at all?

Is it because $\int_{C_{r1}}$ is half of an integral over the residue?

and same w/ the integral over $C_{r2}$?

Will Jagy

I have had a somewhat shocking success. I asked a guy where his question came from, and HE TOLD ME. It's a miracle. math.stackexchange.com/questions/252575/…

@WillJagy There can be miracles when you believe. --- Mariah Carey

Will Jagy

Believe what?

Argon

HAHAHAHA!

Link

@JasperLoy, seconded, believe in what?

Will Jagy

I believe in the existence of Mariah Carey. Never met her, but there are all those songs and videos, somebody is doing them.
