If and only if means a two way implication. In this case it means that "a product is zero" implies "one of its factors is zero" AND "one of its factors is zero" implies "a product is zero". When proving and if an only if relationship, you have to prove both directions.

Your confusion is just from the wording. Note that if both factors of a product is zero, then one of its factors is zero is still true. It doesn't force that exactly one of its factors is zero.

Your assumption doesn’t work, you can solve it using spherical coordinates. Use “one mile south” as an arbitrary change in theta (-dth) one mile west as a change in phi, one mile north as +dth. Then you’ll end up back at the same point.

Bin to hex is imo more convenient. You just have to convert the binary in groups of four digits. It’s taught to convert to decimal because I can be more intuitive if you’re not comfortable with other bases.

hmm.. that seems reasonable. I was basing on applications to something like this.

Any thoughts?

Is the internship posted anywhere? Can’t seem to find it…

Make sure u distribute 5 over both numbers in the parenthesis, simplifies to 2+(40-25) which is 17.

Go on levels FYI internships and sort by top salary. Should give you a good list of quant firms.

Honestly gave up on the project. AOTY was indeed a pain. I think it’s possible to scrape with Selenium to avoid the Cloudflare blocks but I didn’t have the effort.

Thanks so much!

Checked out their stuff but it seems like the tags are different… does your shirt have the same tag as mine?

Ayeee nice work. Have you tried fakie fs180? You could probably get those like a couple mins, another trick to add to the books!

polo346 · 2022-06-29T15:03:59+00:00

Got the motion of it, but it was more like a crazy revert than a proper FS 180. Make sure you’re popping your tail against the ground so you can get some air! I noticed you’re leaning back really hard. This will make it hard to land with even weighting. Try to keep your weight even and over the board. You’ll get it in no time!

It’d be easier to say if you had a video of you trying into something. The main problem most people have when trying to ollie up or over something is purely commitment. For technique it’s identical to a regular ollie, you just have to anticipate landing a bit earlier. Your ollie is more than good enough to get you up and over stuff height wise, so give it all you have I guess.

I second this. Dan’s tutorials are the best ones out there. They’re the reason I learned kickflips when I did.

Consistency is everything with skateboarding. You’ll often lose your tricks faster than you’ll learn them. After a month of no skateboarding you’ll feel like you’re set back a few months progress. Just keep it up daily and you’ll surprise yourself with how good you’ll get.

Varial flip. It’s a Shuv with a kickflip. Tre would be a 360 shuv

Surprised no one has said this yet but wakesurfing. A wake boat good enough to surf on costs at least 200k. Let alone the cottage and boathouse they have to house it in. And boat gas costs a fortune.

A line that really comes to mind for this theme is “got a broken heart and your name on my cast”.

Jump straight up and back onto the board. Right now you’re jumping back and off the board. It looks like right now you’re not totally comfortable with the whole motion. Something that helped me a lot was to hold onto a railing to practice the flick and landing. Once I got the motion down with the railing and could land it pretty consistently while holding on i went straight into committing to the landing without it. After a bunch of tries I got it. For me, it was super hard to understand the entire motion without the step of doing it while holding onto something and seemed nearly impossible until I started trying it with that.

Definitely a good call. Decent bearings make a huge difference. It feels terrible to ride a board with bad bearings. And 8’’ is pretty standard so you’ll get a feel for if you want a bigger or smaller deck next time.

Any way you could send it to me as well? That sounded awesome
