This requires calculus of variations tricks to prove even special cases, doesn't it?

It's kinda funny over in the SCP zone how much lower the average familiarity with IRC is, even among the staff, than a lot of other IRC communities.
<Ellied>
I mean it's understandable because my main experience has been with tech channels
<Ellied>
but I also don't expect people to panic when you CTCP VERSION them
<UmbralRaptor>
Fun
<APlayer>
Hint: If you did this to me half a year or so ago, I'd probably panic too

I just got a CTCP something. What do I do?

Panic because your Gibson is about to be h4x0rd.

<ThadDomina> I honestly have no idea how many hours I work in the average week. I don't even know if I'm working right now. https://t.co/VayT71JG23
<bofh>
UmbralRaptor: same
<bofh>
like it's basically impossible to actually tell what conclusively determines "work" when you do theory stuff.
<bofh>
heck even experiment -- does the time spent dicking around on twitter while you wait for the XRay diffractometer to finish scanning the sample or for the finicky but still slow reaction to complete count as "work"?
<e_14159>
bofh: Work means thinking, i.e. about an hour per week.

"Κύριε Ελέησον" in the context of Catholic mass is better translated as "Lord, have mercy"

bofh: s/Ε/ἐλέησον/
<Qboid>
egg|laptop|egg thinks bofh meant to say: "Κύριἐλέησον Ελέησον" in the context of Catholic mass is better translated as "Lord, have mercy"
<egg|laptop|egg>
uh
<egg|laptop|egg>
it's case insensitive?
<egg|laptop|egg>
bofh: anyway don't forget the breathings
<egg|laptop|egg>
(if only because the insane translation depends on them)
<egg|laptop|egg>
bofh: absent the breathing it says lord, I'm sorry
<bofh>
huh. so it does.

Remember to breathe when apologizing in Greek?

everybody say his own kyrie eleison, getting ecstatic and sorta dramatic and doin' the Vatican rag!

That song is *amazing*.
<soundnfury>
'course it is, it's Lehrer ;)
<bofh>
I mean how many songs rhyme something with "transubstantiate" in one of the verses? :P
<soundnfury>
even the songs he did for The Electric Company are genius
<soundnfury>
bofh: in fairness, some of acapellascience's rhymes come close

I mean I'm partial to "I'm just a worldsheet, please minimize me / He's just a worldsheet from a string theory, reparametrized by a Weyl symmetry!"
