My attempts at productivity were recently baffled by a common cold. Attempts at making up for the lost time in all courses and parallel projects were later baffled by being human, having only 24 hours in a day and a severe lack of insomnia.

However, as Test #2 approaches. I'll attempt to track my studying for the midterm here, and to post some ideas that have been left roaming in my mind after lectures, problem sets and assignments and that have been waiting for their turn to reach internet stardom.

after reviewing for a couple of days, I cannot come up with any post-worthy material. I was going to work on my proof for P( (s1) ) in the last exercise of week 5's lecture, since it was not completed for the evening section as far as I remember, but now the slides include the proof and, after seeing the solution, I cannot come up with another version. I should not have waited that long.

(Period of time.)

Here's something! Missing Week 7 was unfortunate. Reading in detail the lecture notes, I realize that I'm only about 50% sure what one or two variables mean (i, j from the rBS exercise) ... perhaps that means that I ignore what only one variable means, which is not too bad, but not what one would like when studying.

OK. Time to post for tonight. Hopefully the next post will be more substantial.
