@MattE.Эллен No, I did ping her a few days ago, saying that we were the only two people in the room, LOL.
Sep 24, 2019 12:55
@JennaSloan No, it is me, the blue square, not just some random guy, LOL.

Hello @MattE.Эллен I just read that the Supreme Court ruled that the Prime Minister's suspension of Parliament is unlawful. What drama!

@RegDwigнt Interestingly, I understand three words there: horror, fear, terror.

It also dates the existence of bestie back to 1991.
Sep 23, 2019 23:54
So, the Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary with the 2020 copyright now has the word bestie in it. Interesting.
Sep 23, 2019 23:50
I see. I guess only moderators can do that.

I was under the impression that room owners could edit old messages @Robusto.
Sep 23, 2019 23:44
Adonis is the name of some beauty parlour, LOL.
Sep 23, 2019 16:55
@JennaSloan We are the only ones in the room now, LOL.

@MattE.Эллен Today I thought of an equation: Matt Ellen = Matt Damon = Will Hunting = Jasper van Looij. QED.

They call it the movie of the year.

The Joker has good reviews.

@Tonepoet I am surprised that ahdictionary.com doesn't have the word bestie.
Sep 20, 2019 16:27
@VigneswaraPrabhu It doesn't mean anything. The person said 'because' because he could not think of any reason.

@Tonepoet A picture only, but no star? =P

The very lonely
Man called Tony
Was very bony
And rode on his pony
While listening to his Sony

Woof!

@RegDwigнt Geezis.
Sep 17, 2019 20:23
@RegDwigнt The Ruins is a good movie.
Sep 17, 2019 20:18
However, it will still be the eleventh edition.
Sep 17, 2019 20:18
I want to announce that if you buy the Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary from amazon.com now, you will get the version with copyright 2020, updated with new words. @Tonepoet

@Tonepoet The AHD blog last post is Feb 2018, the month the panel was disbanded. I wonder if HMH intends to print a sixth edition. The latest edition is a 2018 printing of the fifth edition for the 50th anniversary of the first edition.

@Tonepoet You can read this article if you like: washingtonexaminer.com/weekly-standard/…

@Tonepoet I haven't talked to you for about a year.
Sep 16, 2019 08:56
@Tonepoet Did you know that the AHD usage panel was discontinued in Feb last year?

@Robusto It seems that all the browsers in the world are based on Chromium now, except for Firefox which is the browser of my choice.

@RegDwigнt Yes, the CIA agent also mispronounced his girlfriend's name Kreutz. He read it the English way instead of the German way.

@TedShifrin Oh, I saw a 1 with a circle around it at the bottom. So one can actually see it. =)
Sep 23, 2019 23:46
@TedShifrin Hello! I saw a ping when I was scrolling upwards. I only realised it is a new message after a long time, LOL.

In other words, it is the set of vectors that can be generated by those vectors in the set. That is why you say they span the set.
Sep 23, 2019 17:09
The span of a set of vectors is the set of all linear combinations of the vectors in the set.
Sep 23, 2019 17:06
@usukidoll Hiii, I see you are still a doll. =)
Sep 23, 2019 17:04
That means the first coordinate is real, the second is real, the third is real, the fourth is real.
Sep 23, 2019 17:03
Now R^4 means 4-dimensional vector.
Sep 23, 2019 17:03
You just need to know what a typical example looks like.
Sep 23, 2019 17:03
So for any x in R^4 means for any such example.
Sep 23, 2019 17:01
(5,6,7,8) is another example.
Sep 23, 2019 17:01
(0,1,2,3) is an example of something in R^4.

The mantra is that matrix multiplication is done row by column.

@EmC Just wondering. Did Ava draw the glasses for you?

@scohe001 Do you think it is worth the money to buy a Chromebook and try Chrome OS? I haven't done that before.

@M.A.R. Almost every ad I see on youtube is from Grammarly, LOL.
