  • get the bigger absolute value solution?

    I have an equation |x+10| = 100

    the solutions are

    x= 90 & x=-110

    since -110 is larger I only want to express that number in my equation. So...

    THELARGEROF|x+10|=100

    any ideas here?

  • Copyright-zizzle?

    I want to take a photo of people walking across campus, and use the image on my website. Would there be any legal issues in using an image like this?

    There would be to many people to ask each one individually not to be in the frame if they don't wish to have their picture taken. Would this be okay?

    If not i will blur out their faces but i really don't want to do that.

  • why are religious people ignorantly bliss?

    They publically deny evolution but are able to acknowledge the existence of bacteria and its capabilities to evolve.

    it's like they think that people actually popped into existence.

    religion is fine, but its to the point where you can point out plain out facts and they will just say "you cant prove that".

    they also feel that twisting there religion to suit there personal life is also okay. ( humans evolved into eating meat, and in the bible it says thou shall not kill and if there were a God he would have equal love for his other creatures as humans, but we optionally kill them to eat them)

    So why are religious people ignorant with bliss?

    PS. I eat meat, but I'm still disgusted by its deliciousness.

  • Finding someones name using SS#?

    I am building a website which will collect the SS# of certain users who use a special feature,

    I need to make sure that there SS# is actually valid.

    The only way i can think of doing this is by matching the SS# with the persons name.

    This is what i understand about social security numbers: (information provided by http://www.ssa.gov/history/ssn/geocard.html)

    xxx-yy-zzzz

    xxx - The first set of three digits is called the Area Number

    yy - The second set of two digits is called the Group Number

    zzzz - The final set of four digits is the Serial Number

    This is something similar to what im looking for http://www.socialsecurity.gov/employer/ssnv.htm

    But i really am looking for an algorithm to find it without any 3rd party tools or applications.

  • How to take down a giant?

    Soon, i plan on releasing a website that will compete with another.

    With limited start up resources, i know i will need to meet the same needs as my competitor after immediate launch. otherwise there would be no purpose to release.

    I am looking at the current websites competitors and inheriting some of there features as well.

    The main reason i am creating this website is NOT for money, rather because a website i visit every day has begun to annoy me. I feel i can do it better, without cramming advertisements down my visitors throats.

    What are some good strategies to take down a giant? (no, i do not actually plan on taking them down they are a very accomplished and respectable and do deserve to still be around, i would actually be happy to team up with them as long as they agree to stop messing up).

    I am very experienced in programming.

  • Definition of ******.?

    This word originally means:

    a contemptuous term for a black or dark-skinned person.

    However the only people whom use this word with this definition are uneducated. The people who are educated and use this word use it in an entirely more exceptional manner to all races.

    I think the definition should be rewritten as:

    ****** - (noun) offensive.

    A low class citizen.

    Its 2014, nobody uses this word to reference African Americans anymore.

    Here are some racial terms which will still make sense once the definition is changed.

    ****** rig.

    Your a ******.

    ******, please.

    ****** say what?

    I F**king hate *******.

    Stop being a ******.

    All of those would ultimately mean the same once the definition was changed.

    Yes, i strongly believe the KKK is a bunch of ignorant *******.

    I want to know your guys thoughts on this.

  • Windows 8.1 setup partition (installing)?

    Okay i am installing windows 8.1 for the first time.,.

    I eventually it ask me where i would like to install my copy of windows. I have 3 choices..

    Name: Drive 0 Partition 1, Total size: 243MB, Free Space 0.0MB, Primary

    Name: Drive 2 Partition 2: System Reserved, Total size: 100MB, Free Space58.0MB, System

    Name: Drive 3 Partition 3, Total size: 232.5GB, Free Space 92.2GB, Primary

    I want to over write my old copy of windows entirely.

    Should i choose partition 1 or 3?

    I think i should choose 3 because it is the largest and i have a 500gb HDD.

    232.5 + 92.2 ~= 324GB

    Where is my remaining 176GB?

    the screen looks like this: ( not my window just one i got off google )
