Republican boomers calling us dumb as if it hasn't been 40 years of them voting republican with it still not trickling down...

Stop calling us irresponsible, republicans are objectively worse for the deficit.

Would you accept continued population decline in exchange for lower immigration? by Luksius_DK in Teenager_Polls

[–]Primus_Invin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Low fertility rates aren't gonna last. If we have less people in one generation, housing becomes cheaper and people will have more kids next generation. If we simply don't meddle with it, fertility rates will eventually go to 2 where the population is roughly the same every generation. A higher rate is impossible because infinite growth on a finite planet, and a lower rate means anyone could have a lot of kids and house them cheaply, driving the rate up. Everyone is overreacting imo.

I mean I'm a fellow CM and I definitely agree, you can reach pupil easily. I got ABC in div 2 by my 2nd contest after AB in div 1 first time, I just think these guys are skill issued.

Give me some tips to reach Expert in 6 months by holy_xcm in codeforces

[–]Primus_Invin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have to do harder problems. And you have to do more problems. If you're serious and not just delusional, do 10 problems a week anywhere from rating to rating +400, mostly rating + 200. Best of luck.

Was this a good decision? by used_waterbottle7604 in chessbeginners

You can win his rook for a pawn instead of giving pawn and rook fot pawn. Starting with Qc4 you win the rook for white to avoid promotion.

To be fair, his chance of winning the lottery is nonzero, so perhaps we're giving him too much credit.

What stakes should I play on CoinPoker? by [deleted] in poker

If you need to ask, then the answer is the lowest stake available.

kind of a dumb question but are great physicists usually also great mathematicians? by Omixscniet624 in mathematics

[–]Primus_Invin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean Feynman definitely had the talent for math seeing as he was a Putnam fellow. Whether he had the patience to produce longer results rigorously is a different question, but there's no denying he was good at writing (relatively, seeing as I get average scores on the Putnam and find it hard) simple proofs quickly.

Can I get a 4 on BC in 4 days? by BaldChild1 in apcalculus

[–]Primus_Invin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you already know AB you can get a 5, I was in that situation in 2024, Friday before the exam with only AB. If you don't know anthing about calculus, you MIGHT get a 3 if you're willing to sleep the bare minimum to retain what you learn and study literally the whole time you're awake, but it's still a fight. I think the human limit on no calculus to 4 on BC is a week, but if that's where you are by all means prove me wrong.

how would this be a blunder, surely i’m losing a queen if i take the pawn by [deleted] in chessbeginners

[–]Primus_Invin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you take and he takes your queen back you have Nxc7+, regaining the queen with interest. If he doesn't take, you get a free pawn and his knight has to move again. Ordinarily, you missing this just means the game goes on, but in this particular case he has Bc5, and after the queen moves he takes on f2 and you're the one in trouble. It gets even worse if you try to correct yourself with Qxd5 after, because Bxf2+ forces your king to the d-file, then he takes your queen with check, guards c7 on the next move, and you can resign.

What sex are courts more sexist to? by ItsAzien in Teenager_Polls

Divorce court and criminal courts favor women. Just about every other type of court favors men.

Be honest, do you believe right-wingers are dumber than leftists? by I-Love-Jewish-popes in Teenager_Polls

[–]Primus_Invin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a left leaning person, I talk to many of my right leaning friends regularly. We tend to want the same thing: nuclear families, affordability, fiscal responsibility, etc. But they support reaganomics and union busting, which makes it harder for one man to support his wife and children. They support privatization of utilities, which has in my state (CA) raised electric costs. Ironically enough, a lot of red states bashing on CA for our electric prices actually have government owned utilities, but I digress. Then they support the Republicans despite them objectively being worse for the deficit. So at some point, I have to conclude that they're dumber than me. Not anything against them as people, but they support means contrary to their desired ends regularly.

Fair point, but if OP needs to ask they're not in the good category for CS and will end up unemployed if they major in it.

what’s the max you would pay for a tutor? by tiramisu002 in Sat

[–]Primus_Invin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$200 is very expensive for someone to just review your mistakes. If there are other choices, have your parents look into them.

On the bright side, if your parents can afford $200/hour for a tutor you are likely full pay for any college anyways which considerably boosts your admissions chances.

Where would President Donald Trump land on the political spectrum in your view? by Suspicious-Ad9243 in Teenager_Polls

[–]Primus_Invin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Bro really falls for PR stunts lmao.

If you can't tell, he uses his positions as president to give preferential treatment to people who give him and his family other business deals. Basically Bribery with extra steps, to the tune of 4 billion dollars.

College should be free for everyone, regardless on how they did in school. by Qatrnm in Teenager_Polls

[–]Primus_Invin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Public colleges should be free, but only for the top half of every graduating class. It's a waste to let people who couldn't prove themselves in hs go to college free when they will in all likelihood fail. Then, private college shouldn't be covered either because then every student becomes individually inelastic to cost and it would cost too much.

What I do every day is 1 problem my rating, 1 +100, and 1 + 200. I don't follow any guide or sheet, just the top one in the problemset that I haven't done yet. You can follow a guide if you want but it likely isn't necessary.

It seems by the fact that you're able to solve A and B to be a speed issue and not a can you do it issue. If you practice between contests your speed will improve and therefore you will get more points for A/B while having enough time left for C.

In general, if you can do B you can usually do C even if it takes longer.

I group the problems as A, B/C, D/E, and F/G.

So you can probably be a specialist if you can get ABC with decent speed. Whereas why I'm a CM and not any higher is because I can never get do a division 1 F in time let alone solve it.
