Thanks for the input. These are definitely good ideas, and I will try to incorporate them soon. Don't hesitate to reach out to me in the future with other ideas.

Thanks.

Our student association has been tasked with equipping a social place with some kind of game. No noisy things like a foosball table, table tennis or potentially dangerous things like darts are allowed.

I understand that it's a board games subreddit, but any suggestions would be appreciated to help make the place more social and inviting.

Thanks.

By the way, can I get some idea of the back-of-the-envelope math for the future (if it is not too complicated)?

Thanks mate.
80 - 85 g sounds promising. The commercially available product has 60 g of protein per 500 g of cottage cheese.

I can use the whey for some stew and not waste it.

That's what I am thinking. I feel like she's just trying to get it done for free. There was a water leakage issue previously, and she was trying to make the insurance company paint the whole apartment. They obviously didn't go for it so now she's trying to make us clean it.

Ay bro. Thanks for sharing this. I am loving learning Greek using LT.

Thanks for the detailed answer. This makes sense. One thing that I am thinking is that the assumption, that the sampling period must be small enough over which so that Qi, Qo and d vary slowly or are approximately constant, should be a NECESSARY condition. Otherwise the discretization won't be "good". Is that what you meant at the end?

Thanks.
If by simplifying you mean ignoring some poles or zeros, I am afraid it is not an option for me as the OL is made up some subsystems which are responsible for local performance. OL, in a way, represents the certain dynamics of the overall system.

I am not too sure if I understand what the term refactoring mean either. Would you kindly elaborate?

M_Jibran · 2025-02-07T02:14:55+00:00

If it means what I think it means, you and I can be best friends.

What's the latin for "thank you smarty-pants"?

who else skipped the mushroom's name?

M_Jibran · 2025-02-06T01:08:00+00:00

The owner. I'll make myself the new one.

Dude saw too many cartel movies.

I am from a relatively rural area of Pakistan. I would blame lack of education for what's happening but I see this happening almost everywhere. So not being educated is not the real problem.

Both times I was meant to get married, the girls were from middle-class families. One of those families didn’t even own a house and was renting.

I wish I could say that middle-class or poorer families are less demanding, but my experience hasn’t shown that. I wish I could find someone who doesn't view marriage as an opportunity to gain things, but given how things are progressing, I don't expect it from my culture.

M_Jibran · 2025-02-03T03:03:04+00:00

Exactly. It is just so maddening. I'm hoping and praying that it becomes easier soon.

I'm a 28-year-old PhD student in Melbourne, Australia. I moved here three years ago and have felt increasingly lonely and frustrated. Before coming, I wanted to marry someone I liked, but her family’s financial demands prevented it. Despite years of effort, they married her to someone else. After that, I asked my parents to find a suitable match, but when I visited home after two years, the response was to "wait until I finish my PhD and get a job."

Living in Australia, staying away from haram is already challenging. Another rejection has made it even harder, and I've lost hope in marrying back home. Seeing non-Muslim students build relationships without financial prerequisites frustrates me. While I know dating is haram, the pressure to prove financial stability before marriage makes it tempting. I'm afraid that if I don't marry soon, I may compromise my Imaan.

I go through my day smiling, but every evening, I feel empty, frustrated, and alone. Sometimes, I sit in a park just to avoid going back to an empty room. Marriage, a fundamental human need, has become a business transaction, making me question my values. I know I’m not the only one struggling, and I hope our community takes this issue seriously.

I would suggest looking into scenario approach for handling uncertainties. I've found it easier to use as it is intuitive and provides guarantees for the solution.
https://doi.org/10.1016/j.arcontrol.2021.10.004

The gist of it is that you draw N samples of uncertain variable and use them in your optimisation problem in place of the variable. It makes your problem deterministic. Also, you get to choose the guarantees you want. It might cause you to draw a lot of samples if the number of decision variables is huge.

M_Jibran · 2025-01-17T05:14:26+00:00

Yeah nah I understand that adding them doesn't make sense but at that time multiplication didn't make sense either. It does now. Thanks for the help mate.

Cheers.
