    UNSW O-Week Meat 2013

    (yes, 'meat' is spelled correctly - it's an inside joke) By popular demand (one person), us UNSW BoS-ers should meet up and do whatnot during O-Week. O-Week is a fun fun fun time, I contend that UNSW O-Week is the best you can find around these parts - and I think very few can genuinely...

    English Essay

    In An Essay on Criticism, Pope presents his views about literary criticism, but unlike Addison and Johnson, he does so in the form of poetry. What does he gain and what does he lose by doing it in this way?

    Sequences Question

    So I'm doing some power solutions to DEs and I get expressions like this: u(z) = A_{0} \left ( 1 - \frac{1}{2}z^{2} + \frac{1}{8}z^{4} - \frac{1}{48}z^{6} + ... \right ) + A_{1} \left (z - \frac{1}{3}z^{3} + \frac{1}{15}z^{5} - \frac{1}{105}z^{7} + ... \right ) with A_{0} = A_{1} = 1 given...

    The University of New South Wales Open Day - Saturday, 1 September

    From 9am to 4pm. Thankfully this year, Open Day is not on the same day as other uni's (or maybe I'm imagining things). Anyways, UNSW is holding an open day mostly for HSC students but really for anyone who wants to take a look around and see what's going on at UNSW - and of course, get them...

    Prerequisite reading: http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=288633 So, the fallout continues - and I was talking to a few people about it, and one of them gave this response - which I have nicely typed up for you all: Personally, I think 2 is bullcrap because... yeah. And...

    Discussion: On girls that approach you at the train station...

    So, story time: I was super pissed off I was going to be late to class because the fricking bus got to the bus stop 5 minutes early. Which means I was going to miss my train. But as I was waiting on the platform, two girls - one blonde, another brunette (who was wearing quite a low cut top...

    Question on Prime Numbers

    So I have to prove that q(n) = 11n^2 + 32n is prime for only two integer values of n, and composite for all others. My working is: q(n) = n(11n+32) And then n = +/- 1 or 11n+32 = +/- 1. Solve for n and work out q(n) in the cases. The case for why n or 11n+32 must be 1 is easy enough...

    I just solved this. Can you? (MX2 students should have a go)

    And I'm feeling quite happy about it because... it was long and arduous. It's not that hard in hindsight, I figure most HSC Extension 2 Maths students would be able to do it - I think it'd a pretty good test of their integration mastery. I don't think there's anything abstractly difficult in...

    So, anyone gonna watch it on PPV on Monday? It'll be on April 2 here, and at 9am. So... I have to go uni that day so I'll watch it on tape delay when I get home. Also, it's cheaper this year I think - I've watched all the Wrestlemanias since Wrestlemania 23, and umm... yeah, it's $35 now...

    TV Show Music?

    So when watching TV, have they played a song that you would listen to, and then go "Damn, that's a great song''? I'm not talking about stuff like "Hey they're playing this song that I've heard before on the radio!", I'm talking about when the composers of the show make entirely new or mostly...

    It is my 'great' discovery of 2011. Fantastic show. You know you're hooked when you get this: And it's awesome, and it's a far cry - a welcome far cry - from some cartoons today that try to be "realistic", which has been seen most prominently with this new Tin Tin movie... with their...
