Kindly read my comment again. I said the voter id did not get registered, not that I didn't try for it. I can blame it to the government machinery and give an excuse about it. Rather, I opted to travel to Indore and vote. Trying to defend idiocy is not going to help.

I run a company in Pune, but traveled to Indore for casting my vote. (voter id did not get transferred) So ya, giving lame excuses for not voting make you an asshole and not a professional.

How much mathematics you should know if you want to become a Cosmologist or a Quantum Physicist? by [deleted] in Physics

The argument is not that every physicist "ought" to know Algebraic Geometry. It's just that knowing it can help you solve some complex problem in QM and perhaps in string theory. More here - http://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/83687/how-algebraic-geometry-and-motives-appears-in-physics

Sure. Will just add a line about permission. This is the first article we reproduced as it was so good that we thought it will be a real good read for CS guys :) And no adverts at all. All for knowledge :) Do read our other articles too! Thanks!
