I heard this song about 100 times the past week.
Feb 21, 2018 04:55
By the way, this is the most beautiful love song I have ever heard. It's in Korean, but the English translation is in the video:

@snailplane How have you been? I made this video yesterday: youtube.com/watch?v=DRChXlr57GI

@0celo7 It's more important not to send the wrong message to the right person.
Feb 21, 2018 04:43
Again, that pair of books is unheard of these days. Michigan students might know about it though.
Feb 21, 2018 04:42
Of course, my favourite calculus books are Calculus And Linear Algebra 1,2 by Kaplan and Lewis. The best for me.
Feb 21, 2018 04:41
There are many good calculus texts, that is, not those two hundred dollar colourful ones, on the market. But for basic physics, hmm, hard to find the equivalent.
Feb 21, 2018 04:38
However, note that the nine volumes of Nolting obviously cost a bomb.
Feb 21, 2018 04:38
@Secret The latest print version is as up to date as it can get. Hundreds of errata have been fixed. Currently the latest is the so called New Millennium Edition published by Basic Books.
Feb 21, 2018 04:37
I really want to mention the Nolting books. Like I said, the last two volumes are still being translated from German into English. They are really excellent and come with exercises and full solutions for every volume. It is a masterpiece. Nolting is a good man for writing them.
Feb 21, 2018 04:35
@Secret I use only physical books for serious reading.
Feb 21, 2018 04:34
Currently, I am deciding between buying Feynman's Lectures On Physics 1,2,3 and Nolting's Theoretical Physics 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.
Feb 21, 2018 04:33
@Semiclassical Do you know about WKB approximation methods?
Feb 21, 2018 04:31
@Semiclassical What does many-body theory in the context of advanced quantum mechanics study? I heard about it only recently...
Feb 21, 2018 04:31
@Secret I hope you will find peace in your heart soon, since you seem very troubled.
Feb 21, 2018 04:30
@0celo7 It's not related to my OCD. I'm just weird.
Feb 21, 2018 04:30
Hmm, I think I am gonna delete my account soon, this time just after a few days, lol.

I no longer really believe what biological scientists tell me about the body and food, because it seems they keep changing their mind.
Feb 20, 2018 15:48
@Waiting Same here, think he is very busy.
Feb 20, 2018 15:46
@Secret If thumbs are also fingers, and we have 2 thumbs and 10 fingers, then we have 8 non-thumb fingers, interesting...
Feb 20, 2018 15:43
@Waiting OK. I was thinking maybe you are the goddess who came to Ramanujan's dreams instead.
Feb 20, 2018 15:42
The only identity I truly understand is 1+1=2.
Feb 20, 2018 15:41
@Waiting You must be Ramanujan reborn, since he also uses notebooks.
Feb 20, 2018 15:29
@Secret Perhaps 2018 will be the year of miracles, where many people will get their miracles.
Feb 20, 2018 15:26
@Waiting I still have the same email address I gave you the last time. If you would like to talk to me, go ahead. If not, never mind.
Feb 20, 2018 15:25
@Waiting Never heard of that. What kind of experiments?
Feb 20, 2018 15:21
@Narcissusjewel Well, I will email you another time to tell you more.
Feb 20, 2018 15:19
@Waiting Nothing. I need to get well first before doing any mathematics, though that might sound strange to you. But I will probably try to learn some languages this year, just for fun.
Feb 20, 2018 15:17
@Waiting I will, because I am Will Hunting.
Feb 20, 2018 15:15
@Narcissusjewel Everyone lies on their bed at night to sleep.
Feb 20, 2018 15:14
@Waiting I believe I will get well this year.
Feb 20, 2018 15:14
@Narcissusjewel I can assure you I always only have one account at a time. I do not tell lies.
Feb 20, 2018 15:13
@Waiting OK then. I won't ask you then.
Feb 20, 2018 15:12
@Narcissusjewel LOL, someone else thought that too, and I told them you think so too
Feb 20, 2018 15:11
@Waiting Has your book been published? I would like to take a look at it if it has. =D
Feb 20, 2018 15:09
@Narcissusjewel WTF LOL
Feb 20, 2018 15:09
@Narcissusjewel You mean AC?
Feb 20, 2018 15:08
@Narcissusjewel I don't remember your username. Would you give me a hint who you are?
Feb 20, 2018 15:06
@Waiting Hey, J here. How are you? =D
Feb 20, 2018 15:05
@Semiclassical I thought you meant the Riemann Hypothesis.
Feb 20, 2018 12:14
This present life is just one in a whole series of lives we have. This universe is beginningless and endless.
Feb 20, 2018 12:13
Kamma may take many lifetimes to come to fruition, but it will come indeed.
Feb 20, 2018 12:12
@Secret In life, we just need to do our best, and kamma will take care of the rest. Don't struggle.

@Tonepoet Yes, you are right.
Feb 20, 2018 20:41
@Tonepoet I noticed your CGEL came complete with periods C.G.E.L.
Feb 20, 2018 20:40
@BaridBaranAcharya It might take a while to be updated if you have posted, but really this is not an important statistic.
Feb 20, 2018 20:39
@Mitch By the way, Standard Singapore English is different from Singlish. Not that I would know much about that place.
Feb 20, 2018 15:04
If they learned their ABC, they will know that besides Americans and British, there are Canadians. =D
Feb 20, 2018 13:30
@Tonepoet Haha, yeah, I hope so too. I agree that it is very expensive, but I think the price is reasonable because the book is 1800 pages long and took a decade of research to compile.
