egg: will you have time some time between now and thursday morning (US pacific time) to help me review for my midterm?

mostly about rotations, forward/inverse kinematics, and notation that makes you very sad

anyways, i'm about to go to sleep (2am here), but i'll try to find some time later

I'm not sure I'm useful there, I mostly tend to say the question is wrong and blather about the abstractions appropriate to state it
09:18

even that might help, because i seem to like abstractions
09:18
<

interestingly, i went to real office hours and it wasn't as helpful
09:18

because the TA seems to prefer completely different intuition than i do

oh, and I forgot earlier: this morning a cat sat on me while waiting for the train

cat!

I didn't see it get on. I think it lives at the station. Appears to be cared for and at what I think is probably the perfectly healthy weight

I've apparently managed to miss it previously but other people mentioned seeing it around

it's just a very silly cat. You can't sit on commuters, they're not going to stay there
