I remember reading this during calculus. My basic understanding is that it is useful to explain conservation of a quantity. Can you explain the physical/ historical significance of this theorem?

Not sure what "grow" means here exactly. But yes, the earth's mass will increase.

 

While it is no secret that exploitative practices are interlaced with capitalistic tendencies, the practices are becoming intolerable. Signing up to pay usually takes only two clicks that are prominently visible whereas cancelation options are hidden away in deep settings requiring multiple clicks. Pricing often feel arbitrary with no reference points. Every large company grows with the intention of exhibiting monopolistic behavior. This is not sustainable and should not be tolerated.

Yeah I understand. I got upset with few comments that were praising Sri Lanka. I just wanted to remind people that Sri Lanka has its skeletons too. Hidden away in mass graves.

After all Sri Lanka does have previous experience with committing genocide and getting away with it.

That is interesting. Who do you suppose Theoden and Saruman are, in this context?

No no I was making a joke. It was just in bad taste.

I understand that we are speed running earth's demise but can we please pick up the pace. I have a report deadline on Monday but I am in no mood to do it.

I really like these metrics that some posters have started adding! It helps to quickly determine what is the credibility of the source!

I do this all the time even when I am awake. I try to look at myself from a camera above me.

 

Prisoner's dilemma is a problem commonly featured in game theory. Each player is given an option to be either nice or nasty. Each combination of player plays multiple number of rounds. When tested against different strategies, it is found that the best performing strategies are :

  • nice first ( they don't start the provoking),
  • retaliatory (when opponent is nasty they also resond nasty),
  • forgiving (they don't hold grudges),
  • clear (their strategies are clear for opponent to interpret) and
  • generous (when the opponent has been nasty, they do not retaliate 10℅ of the time )
