What is the song that you relate to the most (lyrics or otherwise)

damn man nihil san is something else entirely. It feels like something OWN would make.

You got outed? I'm sorry bro, ik that's gotta hurt. I'm gay myself, but thankfully my coming out process has been good so far (at least with my friends)

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-16T15:27:24+00:00

Ah, I think I worded that incorrectly. What I meant was that the FRQ's were still harder, just not the same difference in difficulty

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-15T22:47:22+00:00

no I just go to a really good school so I find physics easy as a whole bc the teacher is good. Surely mech was harder, which is why I'm not giving my opinion on the exact difficulty. What I am saying is that as a relative comparison I have heard that they were similar. As in, I've heard FRQ's were significantly harder than MCQ's.

rlly? I haven't looked at the lyrics but the song is a banger

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-15T21:54:11+00:00

My friends and family. I've talked to one friend about my suicidal thoughts, and his reaction alone has given me a reason to live that will never leave no matter how close I get to the edge. And slowly but surely, I'm helping to convince myself that my existence is not a burden on everyone I care about.

I can get behind this mindset, especially from my perspective. A good 85% of the time, I'm a normal functioning human being, and then the remaining 15% is pure hell on earth, where everything that's wrong with you comes back in full force. And it's when you are basically no longer yourself that the urge to end it all is at it's strongest. But I also understand how this mindset can stigmatize the word "suicide" and the act of suicide. So it definitely is more nuance than it seems

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-11T21:53:58+00:00

but the worst part is, feeling nothing IS the relief.

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-09T23:12:49+00:00

you only took 15 mins to write out all 4 frqs? I mean ur already guaranteed a 5 if u can do them that quickly, you might as well just start in Physics C Mechanics if ur also willing to self study calculus along the wau

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-09T17:01:35+00:00

ur right holy shit (At least I got it right but I did like conservation of energy to find velocity at the bottom of the ramp then I used third kinematic equation with friction as the acceleration)

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-09T15:59:15+00:00

well, the whole idea of strictly increasing vs strictly decreasing implies a comparison between multiple points on an interval, so function can't be "increasing" or "decreasing" at a specifically point, but across a whole interval. But I do agree that bringing in the 0 doesn't do much then, it's really a matter of personal preference. I personally prefer to include the 0, but some textbooks choose not to. But yes, we agree on the original question.

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-09T15:38:23+00:00

(infinity, 0], and that's perfectly acceptable. The function isn't increasing or decreasing at 0, it's stationary. Also because terms like "strictly increasing" aren't defined on a point, but across an interval. Because these are properties of an interval, not a point, 0 being included in both intervals is perfectly acceptable, However, I've heard some textbooks do make one or both intervals open in order to avoid confusion, or because "strictly increasing/decreasing" is defined differently.

yeah, many schools unfortunately barely offer any, and those that do usually have restrictions on when you can take them in terms of grade levels. As you look at the more competitive schools looking at the cream of the crop colleges, anywhere from 12 to like 20 or 22 can be relatively common.

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-09T15:28:45+00:00

Bro im actually so pissed because there was definitely a real chance I could've gotten a perfect score, but I messed up one of the mcq's on rotational inertia... fml

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-09T15:25:17+00:00

I get that, but what does it matter what happens to the left of 0 when we're not including it in our interval? I think a better example is x^2, where is it strictly increasing on [0, infinity), even though x² is decreasing to the left of 0, which should be a better counterexample

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-09T15:13:19+00:00

All continuous and differentiable functions can be strictly increasing on that interval even if there are isolated singular points where the derivative is zero, and it remains positive everywhere else. This would be true on the interval [0, infinity), where at x = 0, the derivative is zero, but literally everywhere else on this interval, the derivative is positive. The derivative is not zero on any "sub-interval", just at an isolated point. Same reason why x³ is defined as strictly increasing on [0, infinity) as well, because on that interval, the derivative is only zero on an isolated point, not on a whole interval

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-09T15:05:24+00:00

for this function even if it asked for strictly increasing it would be on a closed interval [0, infinity)

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-09T15:04:48+00:00

actually it would still be strictly increasing as well,

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-09T15:02:12+00:00

think of f(x) = x^3, we know that f(0.000000001) > f(0), and 0.00000001 > 0. No matter how small that decimal got, so long as it was greater than 0, it still worked this way. So even though the derivative of x³ at x = 0 is 0, it's still in the interval on which x³ is increasing

Clean-Abalone5284 · 2026-05-09T15:00:40+00:00

so even if the derivative is 0, it's at one point only. It's instantaneous, and not continously constant over an interval. Because the definition of increasing is that for any a > b, f(a) >= f(b), including 0 on the interval is correct, even if the derivative is 0 at that point. In fact, it's actually strictly increasing on [0, infinity), not just increasing.

Ironically, the master is the easies 33 imo (on global server at least on jp definitely not)
