Re: Op-Ed: Former Cuty PR Man On "Corporate Psychopaths"

Toootally different from how many technology and programming companies look for autistic candidates or with Asperger's syndrome. Totallllly different. The problem is, that bankers have something called "fiduciary duty", where they are supposed to have another party's best interests at heart

That is fucking disgusting. That the US prosecutors went along with it is a damning indictment of just how corrupt our Legal system is; Justice, it is not.

Yeah, it's totally terrorism. I think maybe the reason that they are hesitant to call it that is because they are still optimistic about an amnesty of one sort or the other. Or they are loathe to admit to such a monumental problem. Not only that, but the US has a long and celebrated history of utte...

Re: Trying to crack a tough integral (Math nerds, help!)

Wait. Just do substitution! 0.5 can go outside the integral (as it's a constant), and replace (r-O)/F with a simpler variable, integrate, then substitute back!
