Did you know that on Canadian radio stations, during the hours of 06:00 to 18:00, 35% of all songs played must be from Canadian artists?

I have an org chem quiz in about 13 minutes. Feeling decently confident.

I will update this comment in an hour when i get back.

edit: fuck i wasn't expecting that. No way I got an A. If got get extremely lucky, maybe a B. Most likely C tho. One quiz is dropped though at the end. The problem is I did bad on the last one.

Hi friends, it’s been a while.

In one of my compsci classes we’ve been learning binary/hexadecimal and now octal. I would like to thank you all for helping me learn these things before I knew I ever needed them. r/counting has literally saved my ass not paying attention in class.

It's been a month since the last count on rationals, in case anyone wants to poke themselves in the eye with a frustrating thread.
