It's not just the psycho assholes looking for people to hammer. It's hard to want to engage with voice chat when the general public has no fucking concept of mic discipline. Nobody wants to hear the conversations happening around you. They don't want to hear you eating. They certainly don't want to hear your background music. Use push to talk.

A wealthy man from Soth Africa has weird views on eugenics? I'm shocked!

So I took a browse through your comment history out of idle curiosity. You're an "um actually" concern troll that just looks for things to argue about. It's pretty obvious you don't actually care. Maybe you shouldn't feel satisfaction with being a contrarian assbag for entertainment.

I'm pretty sure cow is the species common name and bull/heffer are the sex variant terms.

You know, like how a rooster and a hen are both still chickens?

The quality of the writing is questionable and the humor is juvenile, but there's an okay story in there. I think it comes down to if you care for death games as a setting.

Do the French dislike honey?

None of this has a point. We're talking over a shitpost rant about common use of math symbols. Even the conclusion boils down to it being a context dependent matter of preference. I'm just disagreeing that the original question as posed should be interpreted with weak juxtaposition.

My argument is specifically that using no separation shows intent for which way to interpret and should not default to weak juxtaposition.

Choosing not to use (6/2)(1+2) implies to me to use the only other interpretation.

There's also the difference between 6/2(1+2) and 6/2*(1+2). I think the post has a point for the latter, but not the former.

Honestly, I do disagree that the question is ambiguous. The lack of parenthetical separation is itself a choice that informs order of operations. If the answer was meant to be 9, then the 6/2 would be isolated in parenthesis.

Recreational weed was on the same ballot and both passed. Ohio actually managed to do two things right, which is a pleasant change of pace.

Well RIP your sanity and free time. You're going to wake up a few weeks from now after having nightmares about unsaturated belts.
