By "Indiscrete math" you might refer to The Calculus of Variation, but it is a different lecture only tangentially related. I've had that one, too. Then comes Differential Equations. How do they come up with these names?

Mathematicians invent them to mske their skill at adding up seem more complex

Whereas we are merely mouthing and mimicking they are truly creative players.

This morning i was following a truck into Sarlat. The tailgate was emblazoned with the company name. Under which was the message

l'un d'une flotte de véhicules hybrides
40% Gasoil - 60% Impôts​

In English

One of a fleet of hybrid vehicles.
40% Diesel - 60% Taxes.
​

What is fuel tax where you live?

After changing my cars master cylinder, I got stuck with hella stubborn air in the system. So I took it to a shop. And wow I can tell a major huge difference between actual bleeding equipment and a traditional home bleeding methods. They also found the front shocks are bad, explaining the vibration every other mechanic explained as high mileage. And gave me bad news the drum brakes need replaced.

Racist!

About 5% in Michigan for gasoline.
About 4% for diesel.

@Stonetree not a dump truck but what you would call an 18 wheeler. And the 6km stretch of narrow, twisty forest road kind of prevents anyone taking their life in their hands to pass anything bigger than a bicycle

It has been lately. But it's high mileage and cheaper than a new car.

It's not cheaper than a new car if you are continually paying to repair it at the same or greater than a monthly payment...this cost also includes lost time and your labor

I am insanely jealous

If I had a genie, one of my wishes would be making people stop whining and complaining about such first world problems.

The repairs are generally very cheap, lower than what my car's monthly payment was. Plus my insurance would also cost way more if I take a loan out for a new car (after my second wreck I have bare bones minimum coverage and started using nicotine again).

appears to be unnecessary at this time

Choose wish 2 carefully

And for wish 3 "i wish that every wish i make in the future comes true"

Lucky you

When I was a licensed real estate broker, we were
briefly prohibited from saying "master bedroom".
Also prohibited because someone might be offended,
creating a fair housing law violation...
- "Walk in closet"
- "Great view"
- "Family room"
