it's like a sideways ########

⨳ This one is just U+2A33 SMASH PRODUCT!

I like it because you can envision just. Taking two [numbers|vectors|groups|squags] and smashing them together in your hands

yes squag is a real mathematical object

⩐ I have no idea what this symbol is supposed to be but it's called U+2A50 CLOSED UNION WITH SERIFS AND SMASH PRODUCT and I just like the phrase smash product

I really need to work on my tendency to ask excessive questions.... I had thought that was mostly just a problem in the classroom but today someone confronted me about doing it in a chatroom and... well, I feel really bad about upsetting someone and derailing conversations. I didn't even realize I was doing it, and that's the hardest part to overcome. How do you correct behaviour that you don't know exists until someone gets upset at you about it?

One of our favorite things: the fact that cats have regional dialects. A cat from, say, Japan actually does meow differently from one from the US

it was pointed out to me that this is basically what the point-contact transistor was

of course actually manufacturing it would be a _pain_ because you would need to grow a very thin, precise layer of n-type semiconductor on a metal substrate and then apply a second metal terminal to it, as well as making an n+ region in your semiconductor for the base contact, because you need an ohmic contact there but a rectifying contact everywhere else

thought: you can make a diode using a p-n junction or a metal-n (schottky diode) junction. A transistor is two back-to-back diodes with a very thin shared region. Can you make a metal-n-metal "schottky transistor"?

GMing roleplaying games is emotional labor, thank ur GM and pass it on

I like the phrase "with all due respect", because while it signals that the following words are going to be disrespectful, it also signals that you probably don't think there's any respect due, even though it seems to imply that you're attempting to be respectful.

Thinking about having huge balls and no dicks..... it's a good look I think
