These various flame wars can lead to a creative thought process that leads to new discovery and it helps to burn the new knowledge into our long-term memory.
Maybe that is why all the academics at usenet newsgroups act like such disgustng trolls???
They do.
How many god damned times do we have to see another stupid thread on the trivial notion that 0.n where n is infinitely many 9's is somehow in any way shape or form different from 1?
There actually is a site worthy of someone like you Khanster. No, not mine. The usenet group.
I prefer your site and we will wait for the return of DD

Do you always expect me to reply to all of your jiga watt answers?
If I won the lottery, I would buy about 3456.2 real women (in binary, of course).
By which of course I mean the robots.

A computer that fit inside a building when I was a student now fits in my pocket, and is a thousand times more powerful despite being a million times less expensive.
In another quarter century, that capability will fit inside a red blood cell and will again be a billion times more powerful per dollar.
