yeah everything is very simple when you ignore reality, the particulars, and the practicals. "Just find a market and save up 10x the median housing price". Sounds great, but I assume that for you, it's just a fantasy. I'm talking as someone who has been a part of multiple startup businesses, and...

I have been thinking a lot about doing a startup etc. The problem with running a business, however, is pretty much the same as being an employee; you're never really free. If you're the CEO of a business, you have to answer to the shareholders. So you would have to both be the CEO and main...

I blame it on Polaris. I was gonna jump on the spiritual-gibberish train and went into the generator. But when I saw the "You and I are travellers of the infinite" line I was like: this is Happy's shit right here!

this shit is magical

haha hold on a second. I think I understand now. Happy has found the "new-age bullshit generator". A sample: http://sebpearce.com/bullshit/

if there would be one thing I'd agree on with feminists, it's that catcalling never actually resulted in anything the resembles a romantic/sexual interaction between two people and thus can be considered as mere aggression without any further aim than, perhaps, to humiliate. I don't think you...

dense fog dissipating

this is anti-life and anti-spirituality. still don't know if you're trolling though, or having a hypomanic episode

I'm a big fan of energy drinks but I stick to the ones based on green-tea extract and without sugar. Redbull doesn't seem healthy at all. Sugary drinks in general are associated with inflammation.

Its kinda crazy that women can store milk in their tits

I'm not even gonna try to "understand" it. When I read the word "quantum" mixed into some supposedly spiritual stuff, I know right away it's all Deepak-Chopra level hogwash. It's all just a stream-of-consciousness gibberish nonsense; strings of words that sound profound while amounting to...

awesome stuff, @Utisz. Enjoyed these questions a lot. congratz to lbloom the beast

I exclusively smoke fermented human shit from people who smoked scorpions.

do these people not realize that people would accept the risk of brain cancer in a heartbeat if they could stream entertainment and participate in social media at 5G speeds? I view it like this: electromagnetic waves obviously does things to the human body, so the less the better. It can have...

Happy must be smoking some good shit lately

must be nice. Every winter (except this one as per previous post) I'm thinking: what the fuck am I doing in this nordic icy hell

I've been so inside my head and non-present over the last months that I didn't notice it was winter. Which is pretty nice – I basically skipped over it and can go directly to spring.

I feel we need a hint on that one, there's like a million things that can make the pic notable :)

muhaha I'm using GIMP

is the question now an extension of the original one or would it be possible to answer it without having seen the original?

discrimination against linux users :|

symmetry and.. homogeneity?

boy, the ava one is a real doozy. I cannot make any sense of it my initial guess was that she was born during a total solar eclipse, and maybe there was some partial eclipse at Jan 10 in north america, hence she says "it's more special than that". But I have no clue what that has to do with her...

anyways.. I used to think that the only worthy art was realistic painting etc. Now I think art is a completely subjective thing.

this is basically stealing CatGoddess' idea so apologies and creds to her if this is correct the xzibit photo has metadata showing he's in the middle of nowhere in Victoria Island, Canada. is it that he's trolling the person looking up the metadata?

code: do you speak'a my language? he just smiled gave me a vegemite sandwich and he said i come from a land down under i come from a land i come from a land where the beer does flow...

not bad, Cattle. I was thinking of converting the text to ASCII and whatnot, but I thought there's no way this quiz is that hardcore. Apparently I was wrong :mad:

yes, I'm working as a buy-side quant. Hard to say what the particular skills you need, that will probably vary a bit depending on what kind of position your are applying for. But they are typically looking for people with 1) exceptional problem-solving skill 2) very high general drive and...

it's just another scheme for separating consumers from their hard-earned cash

stab at the Ava & Bob text: edit: nah, removed it. cannot be correct.

you tryna cockblock me there, Pizza? on a serious note, I think it goes without saying that Utisz put together a very interesting mix of questions pertaining to trivia knowledge as well logic puzzles, math, etc.

damn, @Utisz, I just looked at your youtube and saw that you made that "INTPcentral downfall" video. I remember I watched that several years ago and thought it was really funny shit

any hints on the code, @Utisz ? edit: nvm, I see now that you're gonna post hints after a week

another shot at the galaxy one: 10 here I'm just assuming that the optimal configuration (in the sense of minimizing the max multiplicity) amounts to all equal multiplicities, and solve the equation accordingly

the sheet music one was some supernatural shit btw. I don't even know how to read sheet music, I just sort of eye-balled the notes and tried to imagine what it would sound like. Then, suddenly, I felt the presence of Mozart. He said to me: Serac... it's a piano sonata. So I listened to a bunch...

I'm gonna go with... animals

I know, but assuming it is to be interpreted as code, and it doesn't contain syntax errors, then other types of errors would be value errors, logical errors etc - the latter of which I am aiming at

Is it that instead of "can't you hear the thunder?", it should be "can you hear the thunder?", because otherwise you're taking cover if you don't hear thunder?

Bird song: Kauaʻi ʻōʻō or ʻōʻōʻāʻā (Moho braccatus)

and for the illegal 90s EP, I'm guessing Prodigy - Smack my Bitch up

yes, in order to have courage one needs to risk real failure. one error of logic here, however, is that if you haver never failed you don't have courage. logically you cannot deduce "no failure => no courage" from "failure => courage" look up "converse error" on google this is assuming that...

stab at the code: change the sandwich line to he gave me a vegemite sandwich

fuck it, I'm not gonna get jacked on this one. these are poker hands.

how long is it until 40 points now? I have the answer to a question and let me tell ya it's not a stab :cool:

no fucking way – I was thinking those eyes in the face were from that chick in Fight Club, but I thought her eyes are more round than the ones in the picture. Bernie and Tyson were obvious... FUCK I gotta start doing more shameless stabs

@Utisz that was my interpretation yes. But as long as they are not all of unique cardinality (which they can't be, since the minimum average for that case would be (n+1)/2 = 1 trillion + 0.5 ), then clearly at least 2 must have the same cardinality unless you're looking for the maximum...

galaxy one: 84% of the 2 trillion I'm sure there's some clever trick for that one, but too lazy to think so just wrote a numerical solution for a smaller universe of 1000 galaxies

chess: rook at e1 to a5, black king to e8

chess: remove rook at e1, move black king to e8 edit: nvm, saw the change in question now

taking a wild stab at the sheet music: Liszt – Liebestraume no. 3 in A-Flat major
