@Daniel He's trying to figure out if Shabbat is on the 1 mod 7-th of the month or if it is every seven days. His question is essentially: if you hold that it's every seven days, then sometimes YT falls on Friday and there are two days without food, but only double fell on Thursday! [Implied: must be my calendar is right so that YT falls on 15th of the month = 1 mod 7 so YT never falls on Erev or Motzaei Shabbat and we don't have this problem.]

He seems to ignore the seventh day of Pesach which would be on a 0 mod 7 day.

Two Shabbats in a row means two days of Issur Melacha, bc he thinks all YT, Shabbat, RCh have the same rules about Melacha.

@MonicaCellio It can plausibly be read into Philo IIRC. Maybe Josephus too; I forget.

Probably the only Pasuk it makes easier to understand is ממחרת השבת bc first day of Pesach would always be Shabbat!

Is there a doctor in the house,my left arm hurts like crazy and it feels weak!If someone feels like praying to Hashem for me I am greatful! Have a great day

@Eagel If you believe that you require medical care, call your doctor. If you believe that you require emergency medical care, call your local emergency services. May you enjoy a speedy and complete recovery.

Interesting SEDE query: who brings in the crowds? -- whose questions generate the most views/day. That query factors in age of the account, which is not ideal. I'd rather see a version that just covered a period of time, but views per unit of time isn't in the data.

@MonicaCellio The age of account is relevant if the account was created during your given range. Although maybe clamping the rang start to to the latest creation date of all of the accounts being compared is the solution.

@Moshe true. I was thinking about the opposite problem; I'd bet that, for example, Isaac's questions are drawing more views than are reflected in that table, which divides total views by the 6+ years that the account has existed. But we don't know how many views a question has gotten in, say, the last year; we only have a total. I haven't thought too much about ways to tweak this query yet. (I just came across it.)

@MonicaCellio Yeah, it's far from ideal. If someone asks a question a day, and every question brings in 100 people that day and then no more, then his "views per day" would depend on how long he's been active, which is obviously incorrect. But note that it divides each question's views by how long the question's been around, not how long the user has.

You see it now, I take it? (I was just about to reply.)

Oh, good point about question duration.

@MonicaCellio And I've edited my previous chat message before I saw this yours, which is therefore obsolete. Sorry about that.

@msh210 no problem; chat is still asynchronous even when we're all here.
