Yes... proving that would require an infinite-capacity rounding mechanism, which cannot exist, because when trying to build it, you always run out of universe. Thusly, "impossible" is equivalent to "false", by default.

3 recurring represents a particular quantity continuing forever. 0 recurring represents the end of a quantity, and the absence of any further quantity, forever. Eg: 0.012500000000000... The significant portion is 0.0125 - the recurring zero

Exactly, the only possible "last digit" it could have (in keeping with the silly premise that it has one), is zero.

Must be a bug on the site. For USD it shows me a weird currency I've no idea what it is, but the dropdown reliably converts to €53,839.49 EUR, £47,858.65 GBP and $78,209.08 CAD. As they were consistent, I converted EUR->USD myself.

It's not a theory, it's experience - and not just mine. The situations in the US, especially historically, are very different to those in other parts of the world, especially now. Yet, even in the US, I see even illegal immigrants

Migrants from poorer countries have lower standards of living, and often able to claim exclusive subsidies. When a job market is saturated with people willing to do jobs for way less, the existing workforce gets pushed out. Country level th

If you're looking at country-level data it may be too broad and so harder to identify, only one order away from pointlessly looking for the same effect in "the whole world". You need granularity, where the effects are seen. F

Just move to any place that's had its workforce, welfare system and social order decimated by impoverished immigrants and given enough time to amass some awful experiences, you'll be able to list your own reasons.

Apart from the flailing limbs and suddenly-rotating head with apparatus. Eliminating those, are we back to just watching a movie? That said, I'd much rather watch a movie on a plane in a VR headset than off of a seat back.

That's what I was going to ask: can anyone comment as to whether this is a disruptive event? Or is Europe so ordinarily devoid of such metals that it's comparatively little versus world supply?

Strange article. It's an interesting and well-written piece relating what DNA wrote about Hypercard (and what Hypercard is), before suddenly switching to "educational models" without explanation, and then abruptly ending.

Yes, it working out of the box is what appealed to me. Having tried many C/C++ cross-platform libraries, this is the first that compiled and ran on a mac without a hitch (sadly, a good benchmark).
