Explain how linking number in topology can be applied to the double helix of DNA.

Or a practical use for a fourier transform.

Or just explain roughly the abc conjecture.

so isolated

we are discussing the recent video in which a man walking alone ("isolated") was pursued by a mob so bloodlusted that a squad of 4+ police officers chose to push him over a bush rather than walk him back out through the agitators

ofc your comrades would never do this sort of thing at a rally, that would require risk rather than just play-acting their favorite reverse lynching fantasies in the safety of an anonymous mob

I sympathize with the fourier transform but they are ... just really loving useful (necessary) in some cases for example converting x-ray diffraction data of a crystal (DNA, protein, some enzyme complex that includes water nucleic acids and metal ions, etc.) into the position of atoms.

the first is useful for calculating if a double stranded DNA circle is supercoiled, how much and if it's negatively or positively supercoiled. Important for figuring out the action of some enzymes like topoisomerases. Which can be useful drug targets

aNYWAY,
tHAT'S REALLY ALL THERE IS,
tO REPORT ON THE SUBJECT,
oF ME GETTING HURT,


It's at times like these that I'm glad for American elections - specifically, the electing part. These endless, hopeless internet slap fights have no stakes and produce nothing except the odd funny line or nice meltdown, but the promise that at the end of all this, some people will be proven right, others wrong, means at least there's some future satisfaction to look forward to. The one thing the endless arguments are good for is getting everyone invested in hating each other and looking forward to seeing the others' misery while being vindicated ourselves.

On that note, it's the Trump supporters in this thread who seem to be doing the most hedging, leaving rhetorical space open in case of his defeat to blame the backstabbing establishment and the system being rigged against them. Even Bernice Anders' tireless insistence that Donald Trump Will Be The Next President is a gimmick partly born out of how novel it is for even a Trumpist to be that certain, like a sort of self-parody. The people planning to vote Democratic come off as pretty secure, entertaining the idea of Trump winning the Presidency as really nothing more than a funny hypothetical, the real story is the damage to the GOP.

It probably doesn't hurt that while pundits and party actors were caught off-guard by Trump and speculated his downfall for months, the polls were already telling the story by Fall last year - and those same polls are showing Clinton beating Trump handily. Trump's shown an ability to subvert expectations, but if his powers extend to the General when the numbers are against him, we don't have evidence of it yet. But at least thanks to the fixed date of the election, we know we'll get an answer after all of this.

In the event of Trump's defeat, I do hope his faithful here don't blow their support off as a long-running gimmick and blend back into the general posting population. Go down with the ship, man.

Strangely enough I get the feeling that if Cruz lost tomorrow he'd be able to go back to work after a week of drinking.

I don't think a loss would even rattle Kasich. He'd be at work tomorrow. Same for Sanders.

If Trump starts losing in the general oh man you are going to see a temper tantrum beyond tantrums. But he'll go back to his buisness.

I can easily picture Jeb bush defiantly shouting out "I tweet from an iPhone six!" at the Bush dinner table post-Iowa like Will Farrell did in the "I drive a Dodge Stratus!" SNL sketch.

Jeb playing hard to get across all of 2020/4 is going to be good though. His entirely opaque offshore crypto currency-laden UltraPAC is going to shine like the jewel Macau where who'se pai gow tables it was all initially laundered through.

losing probably isnt that hard when youve got guaranteed patronage/cronyism lined up for the rest of your life. when cruz finally gets eliminated he's just gonna start speaking at random bullshit christian family conferences about how bad gay people are

It was far beyond just politics when Trump was attacking Jeb, you could feel how personal it was and Trump relished in his decimation most of all. Rubio was just another speed bump in the way, and he not only knocked him out of the race but humiliated him in his home state by a double digit loss.

I keep wanting to say something like: many people in this thread arrived at the right conclusion by wrong reasoning, but this is maybe a better formulation of this. It wasn't ridiculous to think that Trump would collapse in the very early days. Silver et al. held on to their "Trump will fall apart" conviction way, way longer than they should have, but at the very outset, it was a reasonable belief.

Now the Trumpstaffel want to say: the winning will continue (even in the face of very real polling evidence and structural difficulties that contradict this) because everything is different now. That could very well be true, but I still think they're now the ones ignoring all the evidence.
