I see why this kind of stuff don't catch on very much.
You don't have any notes to refer to?

Computer lag.
Also, I feel like a machine.

There's a huge amount of steps to a calculus problem in which minor errors can occur, or misunderstandings can happen. They're very hard to find. It probably also doesn't help that I'm almost teaching myself here. My professor happens to be some loose relative of John Madden (he never said so but I would bet money it's true) whose just as incomprehensible.

What kind of calculus is it?

Local maximums and minimums in an equation. Derivative stuff. Probably isn't too tricky for someone who learns it from someone else.

Is it in multivariable calculus? I've been having trouble with that too :\

Just found out there is a new series of DR WHO is airing on BBC 1 on the 30th of March.

Fucking hell, how in God's green earth does this crap continue to run? I could write better sci fi, in fact, I regularlly do!
It's not even sci fi, it's just some fat producers insipid fantasy tosh. No scientific explanation is given to anything, nor does it abide to the laws of physics. In one episode, there's a bloody great hole in a spaceship, and it has no effect. No sucking out, no radiation poisoning, they just calmy look out down into deepspace.
And all the characters are the most vain pompus bunch of pricks I've ever seen. The doctor is a wanker, goes around with his bag full of douche being a self important pretentious arse chunk, being a camp cock neck one minute and pretendind to be 'dark' or 'deep' the next.
The only other character that the writers actually bother to pretend isn't just a cardboard cut out is that annoying bitch out of the dalek episode who turned up again purely because they can't be bothered to write another character. And she's annoying as fuck, they seem to think making all the characters LGBT stereotypes counts as character development. Either that or she's just another vehicle for whoever is papa smurf of this crap pile's pointless crusade to make every single character gay that's about as subtle as matt smith coming into the tardis in nothing but ladies underwear and lipstick, and shouting "Hey everyone, I like COCK up my ARSE, because I'm GAY!".

I'm really sorry if that offended anyone, I just had to get it off my chest. Please don't take the comments about LGBT people the wrong way, I'm not homophobic in any way, I'm not even heterosexual, so I'm not mocking that group of people.

Well, a lot of people like it. Just like many other tv shows.

I know, I just don't appreciate the BBC getting away with spending taxpayer's money on dull, poor quality, repetitive dross.

People buy it, there are a lot of fans, gadgets, spin-offs, really no reason to change anything. If people buy something, it's stupid to change it. It's all about money.
