An example of how easy it is to offend:
|“I’d want to see the actual reasoning, and the actual probability calculations that you think make the chance remote. Not just liquid nasal ejecta :) ”|
was quoted by butifnot on UD as example of me insulting Gil, who had said, in his TSZ post:
|When I was growing up and learning mathematics my dad (a professor of chemical physics) admonished me to always check my calculations to see if they made sense on the surface (in my engineering department we call this “using the beverage out the nose” test).|
That's why I'm trying to keep the place squeaky clean.
