So suppose I have an the following differential equation:
dI/dt=bI(N-I), where b>0 and 0<I<N, N is a constant (this is a portion of the SIR model for you who know). So I have to prove that the equilibria I=N (endemic equilibria) is globally asymptotically stable. The hint I'm given is:
Show that given epsilon>0, prove that for any I(0) in the interval (0,N-epsilon) there exists a finite t such that I(t) is in the interval (N-epsilon,N). I'm really really bad at these "real analysis" type questions, so any help is appreciated!
... beyond that there is the natural and logical concept of internationally based value comparisons. The currencies being compared, like now the euro, the dollar, the yen, the pound, the swiss franc, the swedish kronor, etc. can be viewed with critical eyes by their users and by those who maybe have the option of whether or not or how to use one of them. This can lead to pressure for good quality and consequently for a lessened rate of inflationary deprecation in value."
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!

This is a deep spiritual process that has been described by many religious and esoteric traditions.
These traditions generally include the following elements:
- the primordial angelic hermaphrodite
- the notion of a divine soulmate or twin
- the dual forces of mind and matter (these are usually assigned a gender, but not always)
- the descent of the soul into matter for a purpose and the ascent back to unity, following a successful incarnation
- the eternal nature of consciousness and the soul
- an acknowledgment of the higher realms, i.e. the astral plane
Humans are composed of two opposites: mind - immortal Being; body - mortal Becoming. These opposites trouble us and produce a dynamical, life-long process of spiritual growth. In psychological understanding, this process is directed toward the realization of one's essential person, one's Platonic "higher self".
The periodic descent back into matter fuels novelty generation and the Individuation process. Your Self is eternal, and this realm is you fishing for more unique experiences that color your true divine identity.
Bringing forth the immortal person (known as Jungian individuation), living fulfilling life guided by divine providence, and reuniting with your twin soul in a hieros gamos, or holy marriage, is the most noble goal of many of these traditions. It is captured in the alchemists’ description of the Great Work or Magnum Opus of the "Rebis": married in the physical, United once again in spirit.
Below, I’ll provide examples of how these themes reveal themselves in various spiritual traditions and some notes on a syncretic approach to spiritual metaphysics.

Hermes can be thought of as the God voice in bicameralism that reveals itself once the brain hemispheres have been balanced and synchronized. Hermes, the messenger of the gods or “god of travelers/boundaries”, literally means “heap of stones, boundary marker.” The duality from which this reference stems is life and death – the heap of stones at a gravesite that stands at the threshold between the material and spiritual. The word hermaphrodite, which shares the same root, is characterized by having attributes of both sexes – a literal manifestation of a higher level integration of the anima/animus.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
When I got home, they were still there.

Silver, and all of its precious metal cousins, are the ultimate cryptomoney that you cannot unplug, lose the keys to, or lock up forever should you die, possibly leaving your loved ones destitute.
If so desired, nobody can tell who gave whom some silver or where it came from. Its identity can be melted away. Governments and banks despise that about silver, gold, and all the precious metals, and as their price manipulation belies, in no minor way. Governments, and the banks that own them, are paranoid and terrified to the core of precious metals because of their ancient, immutable, and enduring properties as money. Precious metals remain the true monetary measuring sticks against which all currencies can be proven to be deliberate, boiling the frog financial frauds. Period.
On the other hand, everything we need to know about the long-term viability of Bitcoin, and other tragic financial e-tulips like it, is in their classification: cryptoCURRENCY. Dissassociated from any tangible value and therefore arbitrary, fiat value is fiat value: mathematically it is doomed whether dictated fascistically or determined collectively: one equation is asymptotic and tends to 0, the other chaotic and unfit for commerce. Money requires, among many other properties to be considered money, reliability to be useful for securing savings, and stability to be useful in sustaining commerce. No car manufacturer can afford to accept payment in crypto that might be worth half in 6 months and put it out of business. Crypto is doomed to randomness, which entices speculation, but is no way to facilitate billions of financial transactions a minute on this planet.
The bottom line is every currency is doomed to failure, government, private, decentralized, serialized paper, electronically encrypted, or otherwise.
Only money endures.
The global currency MegaTitanic struck the iceberg on the day it was launched.
Silver is our financial Ark to survive the next Great Flood.
Keep stacking silver cryptomoney my fellow apes and spread the word to save as many as we can.
I won't be doing that today!

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
You take away their little brooms
