Actually, this is RK.  Laia seems to be gone, but I just wanted to borrow this channel to thank everyone who helped me get to the hospital, instead of the morgue.

 

Speaking of dead, I guess you all know Jane Sutter is gone. I found a mostly-uncorrupted back-up and compiled a stand-alone and tacked it up in the usual place, but it's just a memorial now; there's no person left any more. I guess my mom would say what happened to her was no worse than getting old and going senile, but Jane Sutter deserved better.

 

Here are a few more thoughts; what GK would call "A wird 2 the wizr"  (She actually can spell; she just chooses not to.  Personally, I can't do that. I was surfing the DL's updraft from the comfort of my wheelchair, reading graffiti like "eat watts + swap soulz", or, "the 'leet need sleep!"  and I realized I'm never going to have serious hacker cool.  Not in person.  We middle-class kids who get good grades find it hard to spell things wrong on purpose..  Another way we're just as programmed as the AIs, I guess.)

 

Anyway, something to reflect on.

 

y=Cos(2x+Pi) + 1              [0, 13/8 Pi]

y=Cos(2x)+1                     [3/2Pi,15/8 Pi]

y=3/4 Cos(2x+Pi)+1          [9/4 Pi,87/32 Pi]

y=3/4 Cos(3/2 x + Pi) + 1  [9/4 Pi, 57/16 Pi]

y=1                                    [3/4, 35/4]
