  1. So, I teach high school math and we use numworks graphing calculators. They've been excellent! However, I recently ran across an issue that shows you can't always trust what your calculator says.

    Suppose you want to take the cube root of negative 230. You should get approximately -6.127. It is perfectly fine to take the cube root of a negative number and get a real result. However, if the calculator is in Complex/Cartesian mode for displaying complex numbers, you get approximately 3.063+0.306i. Simply moving the negative sign outside of the radical sign (again, this is just fine to do in high school), you get the correct answer as shown below.

    I wonder what causes this?

  22. Trump told this live on Fox News.
    TRUMP: I'll tell you something that's gonna get me in trouble but I couldn't care less. The radicals on the right oftentimes are radical because they don't want to see crime. The radicals on the left are the problem.

  23. CW: #AusPol #WhatAreYa

    With all we have seen, and all that you know, would you prefer to live in an Australia that is ruled by; China, the United States of America, the United Kingdom or New Zealand?

    No, you #Greens Political Party #communist #dangerous #radicals, I am not putting in an option for #Australia. Just. Grow. Up. You get to be a serf, enjoy it. Christ almighty.

  24. 2/ 🧵What is needed in these times is more #Radicals - As the late Saul Alinsky said: “The Radical believes that all peoples should have a high standard of food, housing, and health … The Radical places human rights far above property rights. He is for universal, free public education and recognizes this as fundamental to the democratic way of life … The Radical believes completely in real equality of opportunity for all peoples regardless of race, color, or creed. He insists on full employment for economic security but is just as insistent that man's work should not only provide economic security but also be such as to satisfy the creative desires within all men.” For those looking to begin their resistance, this book is a great place to start 💯. #resistance #USPol #politics #organizing #books #coup #AmericanCoup

  25. NAR leaders often call themselves apostles and prophets. The movement was founded by and is heavily associated with C. Peter Wagner.

    Long a fringe movement of the American Christian right, it has been characterized as "one of the most important shifts in Christianity in modern times". The NAR's prominence and power have increased since the 2016 election of Donald Trump as US president.

  26. How #SecondAmendment #Radicals Are Attacking #Laws Meant to Keep #Firearms Out of the Wrong Hands

    An investigation by The Trace & Rolling Stone exposes the ugly campaign to undermine a bipartisan compromise to stop #MassShootings

    Susan Webb stood w/her colleague on Parks Rd. The Chesapeake Bay & the abandoned store w/the sagging roof were behind them, the smell of discarded crab lingering in the air.

  29. Republicans openly admitting to sabotaging efforts to fix the #border.

    Of COURSE republicans don't want to fix anything. They'd have nothing to run on if shit got fixed. #DEMOCRATS fix things. Republicans muck shit up and then cry about how democracy doesn't work. From: MSW

    Ron Johnson says he’s leading an effort to obstruct a deal on #border #security.

    Ron Johnson takes credit for the Senate recessing before voting on any border security measure.

  31. Republican Rep. Roy: I want my Republican colleagues to give me one thing that I can go campaign on and say we did. One! Come and explain to me one meaningful, significant thing the Republican majority has done."

    They can't. Not one thing for Americans.

  32. In every end, a beginning. What is possible, if #Twitter really disappears? We get to imagine the answer.

    Calling all #fiction #writers, #humanists, #radicals, #fanfic creators, incorrigible #dreamers, #tech visionaries, #revolutionaries and #optimists:

    Can we write a #utopian story together that begins like this?

    Once upon a time, a rich man bought himself a fancy toy, and broke it.
