smiley - yawn? you bored?

Don't you just love the sound of them whizzing past....

What about them would you like to study? The sound? - how fast they go? - How dangerous it is to stand in their way when they are up to top speed?

Welcome Wøñkø - Professor of Deadline-ology..

The danger and the ratio of time left on until a deadline in comparison to laziness.

Sounds quite interesting....

You could come up with some sort of Deadline Quotient...

That's w*rk though...

Maybe not... faking research isn't above me...smiley - winkeyesmiley - winkeye

Argon0 (50 and feeling it - back for a bit)

So fake a Deadline Quotient.,...

L=((D^2)/(D^0.73))+(3D/12) L:laziness D:time left in hours

How's that?

smiley - cool

Actually no that can be simplified...smiley - biggrin

L=(D^1.27)+D(1/4)


Application

Post 11

Argon0 (50 and feeling it - back for a bit)

Or:

L= (D^1.27)+(D/4)

And 1.27 could be the "deadline constant"...


Application

Post 12

Wøñkø

needs an irrational #...

37/29... there we go... approximately 1.275.



L= (D^[37/29])+(D/4)


Application

Post 13

Argon0 (50 and feeling it - back for a bit)

Hmmm - good one but could it be 42/41?


Application

Post 14

Wøñkø

smiley - eureka




smiley - cool


42/33... 1.2727272727...

L=(D^(42/33))+(D/4)


Application

Post 15

Argon0 (50 and feeling it - back for a bit)

Ah, but that can be reduced to 14/11....


Application

Argon0 (50 and feeling it - back for a bit)

42/41 is also an irrational number:

1.024390243902439024390243902439 recurring (02439)...

Argon0 (50 and feeling it - back for a bit)

phi, is that like pi with Rugby goal posts sticking out?smiley - biggrin
