I was always taught that when you divide something into 0 parts youre left with 0 as a remainder

If todays wisdom wants to say its undefined thats fine just dont ever try dividing something into 0 parts

Back when I was in college, I took Astronomy 101. I could have aced every test without going to class, I liked astronomy as a kid. The professor was a real character and pretty entertaining. Anyway, a gaggle of coed education majors were in the class, about four of them from my dorm. They were pretty good looking, and not very bright. So, I tried to tutor them on such topics as the Doppler Effect, which they could not grasp, at all. I was running up and down the dorm corridor make a train sound at one point.

I got the feeling that an education major was where the MRS degree aspirants went.

I say that noting my father, mother, and sister were all education majors and all taught school at some point.

Never seen the term "MRS degree." I had to look that up.

There was one really pretty gal on our hall I took a living to (duh). We kind of dated, and kind of decided to "be friends" (maybe she did that). Anyway, we kept up over the years and she told me she got engaged, she had gone to MBA school in Knoxville at UTK. She admitted she had gone to find a husband.

It was a real thing with a lot of coeds, not just the uglier ones. They usually were in sororities, she wasn't. I saw here again a few years later and she had kind of "blown up". I was married at the time as well. It was bit uncomfortable for all.

I have found in my decrepitude that young women generally are quite attractive, we have a lot of them around here. They fairly often are out running wearing those ultra tight pants and maybe a sports bra thing and nothing else. Of course, I'm very happily married so I don't really notice.

Doesn't apply to me, but it might as well. My undergrad degree years ago was in business management and marketing, which far as I can tell amounted to a big pile of nothing. Didn't ever seem to help me get a job, and the jobs I got did not care about the degree. I thought I learned better than that and recently got another degree in Data Science. Appears my degree is again not very impressive because I still haven't gotten a job in the field.

There are a few reasons I can think of for why this is, but I just like to complain about it.

One kid got a double degree in French and English. She's now a computer engineer and doing quite well. The other got a degree in sociology and then a JD. Same thing.

Guy I know from my growing up years used to always say if you want to know how a girl will fare in the long term, look closely at her mother. Probably true some of the time, and other times not. He was saying it to be funny but it halfway sounded like good advice.

My mother-in-law was still pretty cute for 65, so I feel like that's in Mrs. DeTiger's favor. She passed from multiple myeloma cancer at 65, but that particular cancer is not genetic, so that's also in Mrs. DeTiger's favor, and mine.

The quick (sort of) answer is that division and multiplication of real numbers must necessarily "undo" each other.
If <anything> divided by zero has an answer, then that answer multiplied by zero must be that <anything>
Your only hope and exception to that is zero divided by zero. A simple 0/0 get called "indeterminate". However if we arrived at 0/0 legitimately (and not through a logic error like incorrectly dividing by an unknown), then we're likely ready to call Mssr. L'Hopital. L'Hopital's Rule will guide you through limits as your variable approaches a "zero", which will tell you what you really meant to do when you generated the 0/0 form.

Yup.

If you think that’s bad, try to stay in Austin while Formula 1 will be in town. Why is that significant? Last year, 432,000 people attended the event in Austin. My buddy, a Georgia fan, tried to get a room at the Hilton in Austin. He was told that they were sold out BUT because they were gold members, they offered a room for $17,000 a night. Yeah. Wild.
(He ended up paying $852 a night at a non-Hilton hotel in Austin and he’s flying into San Antonio.)
That’s a bummer for Georgia fans who have been chomping at the bit for a more exciting regular season schedule. I suppose this is a nice time to be in the 12-team Playoff era. The Dawgs face 2 Playoff teams, 3 road games vs. New Year’s 6 Bowl teams and 8 total Power 5 teams who earned bowl berths. Plus, the lone home game in September is against FCS Tennessee Tech.
Needless to say, Georgia won’t have the same preseason narrative about its schedule that it had entering 2023.

Yeah it's really unfortunate they set the date for the Texas-Georgia game on the same weekend as Formula 1. The F1 schedule has been out for a year, so this is all on the SEC scheduling office.

utee, I hit you up on Messenger, but wherever you happen to see it first.....

iirc, you mentioned having a good eggnog recipe. Wanted to see if you could share it with me to try. Seems like we talked about this once before, but if I ever got it from you previously, I didn't get to try it out and have misplaced it.

Probably on the cookbook thread pinned at the top of the big 10 board

The Dawgs are losing players, and recruits, at a rapid clip these days. They could be pretty ordinary next season.
