Another Thing trump Takes Credit For Turns To Shit
- Thread starter Walt
- Start date
Poor Walt, digging the hole of ignorance deeper and deeper.
Losers don't retire at the age of 58. I retired because I can, I spent years planning for it. Smart investments and good retirement plans, the investments will carry me until I'm 62 when my retirement plans take over. That makes me a loser (I see all you have is changing quotes).
You "consulted" hiring Drs? That is fascinating, do tell us more.
Good bye, don't come back!
Computer Engineering. I have not done much hardware work since my undergraduate years. I mostly do computer programming, or if I am feeling fancy, software engineering. Actually, it gets kind of strange, because much of the computer programming I have been doing recently might have been considered hardware a few decades ago. I have been doing a lot of work with FPGA's, which is a chip that you can reconfigure (with software) to be any sort of digital circuit you want. Where a normal CPU core can do just one thing at a time, an FPGA can do everything at once.
1/(cos^2(x)). It goes to 1 at 0, to infinity at pi/2, to 1 at pi, and on and on. I honestly have not thought about that in 30 years. I think it is earlier than the second year calc. I think I did calc with trig my senior year of HS, but am not sure.
First off, GDP growth is adjusted for inflation. So 2% growth is 2% above inflation. That is moderate growth, and not stagnation. Inflation was below target inflation of 2%, so was not much of an issue beyond that.
trump was not doing better. It cannot be "booming" for an orange president, but stagnant for a black President.
The repo markets seized up in September, months before the pandemic struck. We were headed for a recession, sooner or later, well before the pandemic. The pandemic has made it far worse than a run of the mill recession.
You may have done trig in high school and solid geometry but not calc., or trigonometric identifies, Walter and it was Calc ll.
If only we had some sort of "deal maker" in the white house who could figure out a way to make a deal that is short of war...
There is nothing that can influence China short of economic war or actual war.
I”m sure you know that.
Look at any gdp chart and you will see a flat area where the 0bama years are ... 1-2% growth ... the new normal.

In all honesty I have to come to walt's defense here ... I'm an engineer and I couldn't answer 1st year calc problems much less calc II.
Haven't used it since I left school.
I huge numbers of losers retire in their 50's. They cannot keep up with the economy, and getting further training/education at their age stops making sense, so they "retire". It was one of the painful things to watch in the last 20 years.
I am 49, and trying to work until I die. I do not want to be dependent on passive investments, because I have seen people retire rich only to have to try to get a job a few years later. I was thinking about lessoning my workload slowly at some point, but we will see.
OUCH!!! Taking early Social Security. I am beginning to feel bad about making fun of you. You have some real problems.
Well, PHD's, not medical doctors, but yes, I have been an outside consultant on hiring of people with doctorates. I haven't done it in a few years.
I got a 5 on the AP Calc BC test. I also got a 5 on AP Physics and AP Computer. I remember there was an interesting question on mirroring a binary tree on the AP Computer test that could elegantly be done with a recursive procedure.
Colleges usually would not have yearly courses, so wouldn't Calc II be the second quarter or trimester, not the second year?
Or differential equations. My son calls them difi difi equations (difficult differential equations).
I had college prep courses at my high school in Nashville. Plain and solid geometry, trig and math and chemistry.
I had to dust off my Calc. Text for that question.
They told us at Vandy that engineering technology has a half life of 6 years.
It has to be down to about 2 years now,

I would consider 2.88 to not be between 1 and 2.

Althea told me...
trump believes he can control oil prices when they're low...blames others when they're high.
Yes, Walter, it would be the second quarter or symester. I don’t know of any university that splits them between years.
I use calculus in weird times, to find the maximum or minimum of desk dimensions for an airport portable desk, or some such weirdness. I haven't done any analog hardware which would use some trig calc in almost 30 years.
What type of engineer are you? Are you in the Army?
You don’t know what the president believes or care because you are blinded with hate.
He certainly knows when to buy oil for our strategic preserves though.
