re: And boom...Euro go bye-bye (Gazprom news) - Spirit of Dunson on 7/21/22 at 4:25 pm Yep. I'm back in Europe. Family is happy about it, since they missed living here. Let me know if you get this way!
Funny you mention real estate. My lovely bride has gotten serious about buying property in Al Sace, so we may be here for quite some time now. ... Posted on Money Talk Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |

re: Thoughts on the P versus NP problem? - Spirit of Dunson on 3/21/22 at 11:04 pm [i]Not a mathematician or computer scientist[/i]
Would proving P=NP provide any information toward actually solving NP problems?
Is it possible to prove P=NP but still be practically unable to solve NP problems?
I guess I'm separating the academic potential that P could = NP and the practica... Posted on O-T Lounge Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (2) |

re: What % of LSU students are equally as intelligent as the average Ivy League student? - Spirit of Dunson on 6/1/21 at 5:03 pm I went to LSU and an Ivy for grad school. My observations were that the top 5 in my class at LSU could hang with the top at the Ivy. Also, the bottom 5 in my Ivy were almost as worthless as the bottom at LSU.
The difference I noticed was the fat middle part of the distribution... the kids in Ivy w... Posted on O-T Lounge Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |
