...

Also my chem class isn't the best

The prof speaks with such a strong accent that I couldn't understand him

at least you're not doing graduate level quantum mechanics

He kept talking about a series over and over, and i had no idea what he meant

Turns out he was saying "theories"

user218912

3:20 AM

or qft

a series of ass whoopings for poor students

@0celo7 Are you?

@SirCumference Don't you dare complain about your Chemistry to me

@BernardMeurer What's up?

@SirCumference What kind of question is that? Yeah, I'm taking grad QM.

3:21 AM

At least you aren't dealing with "quantum field series"

But I was referring to @BernardMeurer 's chem class.

@0celo7 Why?

user218912

@SirCumference it's called inference.

@obe It was confusing

@SirCumference my Chem course is some hardcore shit

3:21 AM

It's not the first time he's done this

@BernardMeurer Oh, you've got it hard

Everyone's chem class is tough

@SirCumference i.e 3-dim schrodinger on spherical coordinates on the first week

user218912

@SirCumference do you go to a bad university?

he goes to Columbia, so probably not

@obe Pretty prestigious, so no

user218912

yeah right

3:22 AM

also what kind of question is that

@0celo7 Stop assuming things

user218912

columbia wouldn't have a bad prof.

@obe He's not bad

@obe but they have bad students apparently.

user218912

lol

3:23 AM

And columbia's got some good profs

user218912

of course...

dmckee

@BernardMeurer Getting some study buddies of the apposite sex is optional but always a bonus.

user218912

isn't it ivy league?

@obe None are perfect tho

3:24 AM

@dmckee Now you're speaking my language

@dmckee I found my girlfriend that way!

My chem prof is pretty good, but he's just got such a thick accent

I think he said he was Swedish

I figured he was Indian

@0celo7 I'll never let my daughter be in a study group

"now we squire X"

I say "theorem" in an Indian accent now

3:25 AM

@BernardMeurer In astronomy we jumped straight from classical mechanics in the first three classes to degenerate gases and QM

@SirCumference Which school you going to dawg?

also "this is trivial"

I guess I was expected to know stats to a really good extent

user218912

I probably should never get a girlfriend because of the fact that I don't stay with anything for long. I don't want to hurt someone's feelings that way.

@BernardMeurer I don't prefer to reveal much about me online

Is the star wall broken, or are you guys messing with it again?

@0celo7 Whoa...

→ 94 messages moved to Trash

@DavidZ Hm?

Why was that moved to trash?

What the hell is going on?

3:39 AM

@0celo7 @DavidZ Is being arbitrary and trashing messages it seems

user116211

@0celo7 David Z has just used The Force.

@BernardMeurer conversation of that nature is inappropriate for this room

user218912

what was it about again?

@DavidZ The man's school? How come?

@DavidZ Rob saying good evening?

Pushing people to reveal personal details

3:41 AM

Meh.

And the general lack of respect for boundaries

user218912

he just wants attention though... I think

@DavidZ Oh yes, we were borderline torturing the kid

I don't even know what a boundary is.

@0celo7 It's like the social analogue of a limit

3:42 AM

I know what a topological boundary is.

user116211

@obe :(

rob

Let's put a lid on the meta-discussion, please.

@rob I'll endorse that

@rob I'm sorry but this is silly. A bunch of messages get thrown in the trash, sure, whatever, but the guy get's suspended and no one has a clue why and that's somehow fine?

(you endorse anything that reduces fun)

user116211

3:44 AM

Let's only talk physics.

Love the cleansing. Real good job

@MAFIA36790 Ok, Banach spaces

user116211

._.

not yet?

rob

Meta-discussion belongs elsewhere. Thanks for changing the subject.

user116211

no.

user218912

3:45 AM

I need to prove wick's theorem

@rob Where then?

user116211

@rob I'm good in that ritual.

@rob Because right now it sure seems like you're just avoiding accountability for an uncalled for suspension

@obe combinatorics

You or @DavidZ, whatever

user218912

3:46 AM

@0celo7 yeah...

@BernardMeurer The suspension was automatic.

Someone flagged, it seems.

user218912

you use induction or something

user218912

idk if it's in the notes

@0celo7 What even?

This makes no sense

Not sure. I can't find the message, which is suspicious.

But it doesn't say that it was a moderator who suspended.

3:47 AM

workspace.imperial.ac.uk/theoreticalphysics/Public/…

user218912

@0celo7 because the messages were deleted?

@obe

When I get suspended in a minute you can check to see what it says for me.

user218912

@JayJay thanks

30-minute suspensions are always done automatically, in response to flags. Not imposed by mods. As rob said, please leave it at that.

user116211

3:48 AM

@0celo7 It is written automatically suspended.

@MAFIA36790 What's what I just said.

Stack Exchange

David Z has frozen this room.

Indeed. Unfounded accusations are something we take quite seriously here.

I'm putting the room on hold for a while, and when it comes off hold, I expect this conversational thread to be done.

9 messages deleted

4:04 AM

David Z has unfrozen this room.

Hi, everybody.

user218912

I didn't even realize mods had freeze breath. That's cool. Yo, do y'all have heat vision too?

user116211

@DanielSank o/

This is so dumb

@DanielSank it can only unfreeze, so kind of weak I guess

user218912

@MAFIA36790 no :( maths is scary

You can't joke about anything here without the bot at your throat

user116211

4:10 AM

@SirCumference You insulted the ducks again.

user218912

ducks have feelings too :(

Haha!

As I said, always be aware @SirC; something is wrong with your place.

@MAFIA36790 these guys weren't from my school tho

they're high school friends

Good night everyone.

user116211

@0celo7 bye.

user218912

4:14 AM

wish i had high school friends at my uni :(

@obe just keep in touch

I see them pretty often

user218912

on facebook?

@obe Nah, irl

user218912

i want to see them irl

user218912

but they're far

4:15 AM

my friends?

Oh

user218912

no

@obe my best friend is a few states away

we still talk all the time

on skype

user218912

well

user218912

i'm just lonely af that's why i come here

@obe :(

At least you've got math to talk about

No one here likes astronomy... :/

user218912

4:21 AM

i liked astronomy at some point

then?

@SirCumference I liked astronomy, then Pluto wasn't a planet anymore and now I seek revenge

@BernardMeurer yeah but the same guy who got pluto declassified found another planet to replace it

user218912

lol

user218912

really?

4:23 AM

@SirCumference I'll kill one of your children and put some random one in their place, so you see how it feels

@BernardMeurer difference is, though, that pluto was never a planet

user116211

@BernardMeurer He didn't kill the planet.

so that wasn't my child

nor was it ever

user218912

was adopted

user116211

His status was just changed.

4:24 AM

@BernardMeurer and this time it's a legit child i'm getting

@MAFIA36790 Yes, the kid's status will change from alive to dead

user116211

._.

I have now met four Physics.SE users in real life.

@DanielSank how? who?

Could someone please make that a badge?

user116211

4:25 AM

@DanielSank You said it earlier, right?

@DanielSank "Fight me IRL" badge

user116211

@DanielSank You said it that too ;P

@SirCumference ChrisWhite, BernardoMeurer, A guy whose username I don't remember (I know his real name but I won't say it here), and Heather.

@DanielSank You met heather?

@MAFIA36790 Well, last time it was probably three. Now it's four.

4:26 AM

How? When?

user116211

@DanielSank heather, the latest ?

@SirCumference Yep. She toured my lab with her Dad (who is awesome). Shout out to @heather's dad.

@MAFIA36790 Yes.

@DanielSank that's the weriest...

ChrisWhite, we deeply miss you. Please come back

user116211

@BernardMeurer Please don't start that again.

4:27 AM

@BernardMeurer #MakeChrisWhiteAgain

user116211

Chris has left for good.

@MAFIA36790 I am entitled to love

@SirCumference That just sounds racist

@BernardMeurer True...

:(

user116211

You are sure to but that will not make him come again.

user116211

We all love chris.

4:27 AM

@MAFIA36790 Do you mourn the dead because you think they'll come back?

user116211

But his was a hasty and a bit over-reaction.

user116211

@BernardMeurer Yes, they will come back in the Judgement Day.

user218912

idk what happened that caused him to leave but i guess i'll never know because it's forbidden to talk about?

user116211

Also, post-apocalypse zombie scenario.

user116211

@obe it's not forbidden; it's just too speculative to talk.

user218912

4:29 AM

was anyone there when it happened?

user116211

I was not.

@obe Nobody knows what happened

It's an unsolved problem in Physics (SE)

I used a quote from someone on SE in my yearbook

Oh god I just realized

It was Chris

ACM knows

user218912

really?

@obe Yes.

user218912

4:34 AM

how do you know?

Feb 2 at 5:34, by user54412

One thing to note is that comet-hunting used to be at least 50% of astronomy (back a couple hundred years ago). Now there might not be 50 people in the world who research comets.

It was Chris!

@MetaEd We're being good boys I swear

@SirCumference Is someone forcing you to listen to this commie crap?

user116211

4:41 AM

I'm somewhat worried about your safety and mental well being ;/

user116211

So much commie dose.

4:56 AM

@MAFIA36790 I think they think it's funny

since i told them about the kids outside

now they've been calling me "comrade"

5:11 AM

Hey, if anyone's got the time, would you take a look at this and then the comments the OP has posted on my answer?

5:23 AM

@JayJay Lemme make some corrections

First of all you should be writing $\dot{ϕ}$ instead of $\mathrm{d}ϕ\over \mathrm{d}t$

It's nicer

@0celo7 I thought you were asleep

Ya know, a year ago I thought I was pretty knowledgeable in math (at least compared to everyone I knew). You guys changed that...

user116211

@JayJay, use $$ $$ for blocks; it works as \displaystyle here.

@MAFIA36790 I edited it

Being peer reviewed

Oh son of a...

You literally applied everything I did ;(

user116211

Hmm, it seems it got rejected due to the simultaneous edit.

@MAFIA36790 Monster

user116211

@SirCumference I didn't know you were editing.

5:37 AM

@MAFIA36790 I know :P

I'm joking around

@MAFIA36790 I'll try and make another edit

Replacing $\mathrm{d}ϕ\over \mathrm{d}t$ with $\dot{ϕ}$

user116211

Is it necessary?

Idk if it's necessary but I guess I need the rep

Well I'm planning on giving some away

To the poor

You're right, that's a stupid choice

@MAFIA36790 Say, why's your primary SE stats and not physics?

user116211

For the pic.

It's a dog?

user116211

yes.

5:41 AM

Oh now it all makes sense

Wait, no, I'm still confused

@MAFIA36790 Thanks for the edits

@JayJay ;-;

Forgotten and unloved...

Oh, @SirCumference thank you so much for your suggestions too, they were absolutely wonderful: never in the history of stackexchange have such edits been suggested....

@JayJay I'm jk

XD

Well, if I do say so myself...

Well what do you know..I am too :)

5:45 AM

@JayJay Ik, realized a bit late

Anywho, I need to go to bed

It's 2:00am

2.00 am??!!

@JayJay Yeah?

Q: Exam Question: Classical Mechanics

5:47 AM

@JayJay I'll try

user116211

This was a Question on my exam that stumped me! I think I got lost in the math. I really want to know how to solve this, because it is very simple. Thanks in advance Question: A mass m goes up an incline which is at angle $\theta$. It experiences linear drag $\vec{F_{drag}}=-bv\vec{v}$ as well ...

user116211

I don't get why they use classical mechanics for such things.

user116211

Worst thing is that both Newtonian Mechanics and Classical Mechanics have been used.

user116211

@sirC, You can suggest an edit on this post.

user116211

Remove the unnecessary tags; add the homework tag; edit the MathJax.

user116211

5:51 AM

Oh; he is gone.

Back to the OPs comments, do you think the emf in one loop should be influenced by the flux through the other loop?

user116211

@JayJay You mean mutual induction?

@MAFIA36790 I'm on it

Can't sleep

user116211

@SirCumference okay; I was just about to edit that; go on.

@MAFIA36790 That crossed my mind but, I don't see how it comes to a factor of 1/4

user116211

5:53 AM

Frankly, @jay, I've not read the post; so can't tell anything.
