Seriously. Why are you on in the middle of the night.
« on: December 16, 2009, 02:03:25 PM »

I'm up all night programming.

What are your excuses?  I've seen at least 15-20 of you online in the middle of the night.

I get most of the concepts, but it sure is time consuming at times.

Calc was easy.  I dunno though, my brains always just been good at math.  I look at a lot of problems and just know the answer without actually doing any work.  Like I USUALLY have to already know how to do the problem, but my brain just goes - Oh that's 64x^3 + x^2 - 12x + 3.  But there have been a couple times when there's been a problem I wasn't sure how to do, but my brain did apparently and I got the right answer. 

Ironically I hate math, it's too much effort to have to write out all the work.  Not to mention that for some reason teachers seem to think you need to do the same exact thing 150 times in one night.

What's considered the middle of the night? Because I think that the earliest I've ever been on is 6:30 ish AM and the latest I've ever been on is about 1:30 ish AM.

Reading a novel, working on a design, or just plain don't want to go to bed.  Lasts night it was the novel.
"The custom of royalty in referring to oneself is to naturally employ the royal 'we'.  We are very happy, we are very sad, we are bored and suffer from ennui.  For a royal prince there's no such word as 'me', It's always 'we'.  So rightfully I should be two or three, don't you agree?"

Like actual advanced calculus? Not just the first four semesters of it?

My solution: don't do the homework. ;) Works in college, not really in high school.

I'm up this early because I work from 4am-8am...

No it's taking the four semesters of Calculus in two. Thus the time-consuming portion.
