Talk:Pat Paulsen

message: During his 1968 "campaign", Paulsen uttered what is still probably the single funniest thing that I have ever heard a comedian say: "There is one issue that must be addressed very forthrightly, very frankly, and very adultly.  That issue is, of course, S - E - X."

message: Recently responded to a question about what celebrities I've met, and I forgot to mention Pat Paulsen!! How could I?? He was the first!
On a plane, headed to New Jersey... moist eyes (many reasons, not important now...)
He was sitting across from me. Our eyes met, and he asked me "What's wrong?" Tears flowed, and all I could say was "I'm going back to New Jersey..."
He said, "I'd cry too!!"
I instantly fell in love with that funny looking little man!! 😉❤ 2600:6C44:627F:7870:C94A:ACBB:29D2:75B4 (talk) 17:57, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

Talk:List of Mississippians

message: Having gone to the trouble to merge the old List of Famous Mississippians with this one, I wonder: what categories are we using? Is being born in Mississippi a necessary criterion? If so, then both Hiram Revels and Jefferson Davis should be knocked off the list. Is growing up there enough? If so, then Dana Andrews probably does not belong. I'm willing to be flexible, but since I didn't start the list and no one has defined "Mississippian" with any precision. but . . . 
Also, is fame a criterion? If not, then we could augment the list by naming all of the governors and a lot more senators and representatives. I assume that there is some unstated standard that includes Ross Barnett, but not Paul Johnson (Sr. or Jr.).
Also, is it worth listing place of birth for those who actually were born in Mississippi? I have to confess I have an outsider's fascination with Itta Bena, Tupelo, Kosciusko, etc.--Italo Svevo 03:20, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

:Because those pages are REDIRECTs (to Dynamic random access memory, which is in the category).  It looks like the mediawiki software won't let Redirects have categories. -R. S. Shaw 05:45, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

message: This category presently has 183 articles and is quite user-unfriendly as a result. I believe the cause is the category's scope. While, the category defines its scope as encompassing all forms of RAM (this is my interpretation of the rather vague introductory statement), it looks like any article with the slightest relation to computer memory has been included. To make it easier for readers to navigate, I would like to limit the scope to main memory topics only. Does this go against undocumented consensus? Are there any comments regarding the above?

Talk:Saxo Grammaticus

message: Absolon’s will says "clericus". Not clerk not cleric not anything else, but clericus.
The name of the chronicle with he’s name is "Chronica Sialandie" - this is a Latin doc, thus it has a Latin name. The Danish name is Yngre- and Ædlre- Sjællandske Krønike (it’s a two part chronicle) and the English name would be Zealand chronicle, but nobody calls it that.
3rd please leave the "see the chronicle for...." else someone will come by and correct the year, thinking its wrong. How can he be born in 1150 and be mentioned in 1103 in a chronicle? Right? I will add the chronicle shortly for explanation. Twthmoses 03:31, 9 May 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Some clarification

message: As of 6/16/09, there is a sentence that says, "There is concrete evidence that suggests Shakespeare was aware of Saxo's original however it is not conceivable as Saxo's prose already contains many subtleties of Shakespeare's Hamlet."
I'm trying to unpack exactly what this sentence says. There is "concrete" evidence of Shakespeare knowing about Saxo's story? But the evidence only "suggests" it (but it is concrete?)? But it is "not conceivable" because Saxo's writing already had "subtleties"... I'm lost. Is there some debate about which came first? Or...
First: My thanks to whomever has done the research, bravo! 
But I'm REALLY interested in what is meant by this sentence, and I can't decipher it.
Thanks to all!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Beagley (talk • contribs) 14:05, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The sentence does seem to be contradicting itself, furthermore, whichever way it may be interpreted, such statements are generelly not accepted on Wikipedia without a citation. And even then it should probably elaborate on who thinks that Shakespeare was aware of Saxo (or not), as I would imagine there would be some controversy among scholars on that one. --Saddhiyama (talk) 14:12, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Effects unit

message: In musical performance, vibrato signifies rhythmic change of pitch, while tremolo generally means a rhythmic change in volume. For reasons unclear, Leo Fender chose to call his guitar-mounted mechanical vibratos tremolos, and his amplifiers'  electronic tremolo units vibratos, and this stuck. It would be helpful to spell this confusion out early (earlier?) in the article, and moreso to NOT continue confusing the two as is done throughout Effects unit.Weeb Dingle (talk) 17:21, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I have reviewed use of these terms and find that the article is reasonably self-consistent. When we say, for instance, an amp has built-in vibrato effect, we could be pedantic and add a note that it is really tremolo but it says "vibrato" right on the front of the amp and so that's what musicians call it in that context. If this were a magazine article, we could add a sidebar explaining the terminology. Any other ideas? ~Kvng (talk) 14:58, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  the vibrato/tremolo thing 

message: At "Format"/"Stompboxes"/<stuff about "signal chains"> there's a reference to a GuitarPlayer article by Bruce Egnater. I fixed the broken weblink, but I don't agree with its relevance: While the 'Pedia article seems to try to explain how and why stompboxes are daisy-chained in general, the Egnater article is very specifically about the types of effects loop topologies used in amplifier construction, and how to use them properly. --BjKa (talk) 10:22, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Egnater Reference 

message: Problems abound:
* The term modeling first appears with no explanation, as though most everyone encountering this article will know exactly what's being said. 
* A few years back, Guitar modeling would route right back to the head of Guitar synthesizer; now, a deeper search dumps you onto Guitar where it's mentioned briefly — and again as though it's a common term — under Pickups and electronics.
* Since modeling lacks an article, clearly some effort somewhere needs to happen to explain (for instance) the significance of DSP and COSM, at least.
* I'm still unpleased with the sloppy usage of "effect unit" here. Clearly, it's not limited to stand-alone devices, as a lone knob (or even switch!) in an amplifier can apparently be considered "an effect" and thereby "an effect unit." A preamplifier used to boost a piezo pickup isn't really an effect, yet the same circuit can be used to overdrive an amp's preamp stage. (Is an A/B box an effect?) And if an EQ stompbox is "an effect," then certainly any amplifier with Tone controls (especially with, say, a notch-filter knob) is just as much "an effect."
Anyone got a bright idea here?Weeb Dingle (talk) 19:29, 29 November 2019 (UTC)

Surprisingly, Buddenbrockia has been shown to be conspecific with the malacosporean species Tetracapsula bryozoides Canning, Okamura & Curry, 1996, a conclusion based on morphology (Canning et al., 2002; Okamura et al., 2002) and small-subunit (=18S) ribosomal RNA (‘‘SSU’’ hereinafter; Monteiro et al., 2002).

Korotneff observed a myxozoan in the bryozoan, Plumatella fungosa, in 1892, which he described as Myxosporidium bryozoides.
What gives? What is the taxonomic status of the genus Myxosporidium? Is T. bryozoides a junior synonym of M. bryozoides? If so, why is Myxosporidium now invalid? And if so, why is the taxon Buddenbrockia plumatellae applied? I am at a loss here. Dysmorodrepanis 15:11, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Complete measure

message: In measure theory, a complete measure is a measure in which every subset of every null set is measurable (having measure 0).
Why do they say "every" null set ... i thought there could be only one, unique null set --> no elements, empty set !! ... and then "every subset of every null set" !! ... a null set will have ony one subset always (itself, and nothing else).
What a piece of cake. "m(A) = 0" is for every set!!! Not only for the empty one!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.156.124.9 (talk) 19:32, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  A null set is not to be confused with the empty set... a null set is a measurable set (a set element of a sigma algebra which itself has a measure attached to it) that has measure zero.  A countable set of points in the reals has Lebesgue measure zero for example. In fact, there's more subtleties about a null set than it being of measure zero, see the article about it.
I have no idea how to fix this, but this article doesn't come up under a search for "complete measure space" and it ought to.  134.50.3.40 (talk) 10:59, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Studying Measure Theory in University, I came across the following definition for the completion of a measure space: let (X,\mathcal{E},\mu) be a measure space; then the set
:\overline{\mathcal{E}}=\left\lbrace A\subseteq X:\exist B,C\in\mathcal{E}:A\triangle B\subseteq C\wedge\mu(C)=0\right\rbrace
is a \sigma-algebra and, extending \mu to \overline{\mu} defined on \overline{\mathcal{E}} by letting \overline{\mu}(A)=\mu(B) for any set B\in\mathcal{E} such that A\triangle B is contained in a null set, the measure space (X,\overline{\mathcal{E}},\overline{\mu}) is complete. A\triangle B is defined as (A\smallsetminus B)\cup(B\smallsetminus A). I've tried to prove this. So far, I've proved \varnothing,X\in\overline{\mathcal{E}}, or in fact that \mathcal{E}\subseteq\overline{\mathcal{E}}, since for any A\in\mathcal{E} we have A\triangle A=\varnothing and obviously \mu(\varnothing)=0, and that, supposing \overline{\mu} is well-defined, it extends \mu, as one possible B set for which \overline{\mu}(A)=\mu(B) is A itself, as used in the short proof above. My doubts are:
1) Give A,B\in\overline{\mathcal{E}}, are A\cup B and A\smallsetminus B elements of \overline{\mathcal{E}}? In other words, is \overline{\mathcal{E}} a \sigma-algebra?
2) Is it true that for any two such sets B,B' as enter the definition of \overline{\mu}, we have that \mu(B)=\mu(B')? In other words, is \overline{\mu} well-defined?
3) Is this the same as what there is in this article under the name of «completion of a measure space»?
