I’ve always seen it explained as (100+0) + (99+1) + (98+2) + (97+3) + …

So you basically have 50 pairs of numbers that all equal 100. So 5000 right? But there is one number that doesnt have a pair to make 100. Which is 50. Obviously there arent two 50s to make 100. So its added by itself. 5050.

Its the same as the summation of 1 to 10. (0+10) + (1+9) + (2+8) + (3+7) + (4+6) + 5. Its 55.

It works fantastically.

That’s I-485 that loops around Charlotte. I worked a few exits from there. That was a fun day getting home.

If you know where to look and where to tinker, then I think you have at least some understanding of what you’re doing.

I read a good rebuttal to this on here a while back that stuck with me.

“Yeah we all pee also, but if you do it 500 times a day there is something wrong.”

I had a package come from Japan to Cincinnati, Ohio, then to my city. Two days later it goes to Singapore. It comes back to the US but via Los Angeles this time. Then to Cincinnati and finally my city. I contacted DHL customer service, they tell me the shipper shouldnt provide me with false hope of an earlier delivery. But they never did, I was going off DHL’s website and their estimated delivery date. Customer service then ended the chat before I could respond… I try not to use them.

“Perfect is the enemy of good.” I heard that for the first time the other day and it’s really stuck with me. All I have to do is be okay with progress over completion.

Its illegal to murder. People are being murdered. So to uphold the law, the murdering has to be stopped. Right?
