Talk:Ethnic Jew

message: Looking back in time, and the way the main Jew article has evolved in its sophistication, I believe it's time this article should be merged with it (i.e with Jew) because it seems non-scholarly and repetitive. User:Zestauferov's original rationale for creating this article seems dated and was done in pique and adds little to the subject/s discussed, which are all dealt with very extensivley in the main Jew and Judaism articles.

replies: text: I don't think it should be merged, because it would be submerged in the complexity of the "Who is a Jew" article. "Ethnic Jew" is a wide enough used term that I think it deserves an explanation to the non-knowledgeable reader. Cecropia 23:46, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Localhost

message: I created an app which masks your IPv4/IPv6 and MAC addresses as their respective localhost. The app is called Binquasin. The way it works is the configuration file only changes the way your device displays your OS's System information. And the executable binary file executes the app. It is available as both a PWA and Native App. How I know it works is the permissions the Android version of Binquasin is set to (however this Wiki software doesn't seem to allow screenshot uploads and I am trying to keep this Talk entry brief).
If the web address is not permitted here, feel free to delete this entire paragraph: https://binquasin.neocities.org/

Talk:Outline of commercial law

message: "Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline". There are two types of outlines: sentence outlines (like those you made in school to plan a paper), and topic outlines (like the topical synopses that professors hand out at the beginning of a college course). Outlines on Wikipedia are primarily topic outlines that serve 2 main purposes: they provide taxonomical classification of subjects showing what topics belong to a subject and how they are related to each other (via their placement in the tree structure), and as subject-based tables of contents linked to topics in the encyclopedia. The hierarchy is maintained through the use of heading levels and indented bullets. See Wikipedia:Outlines for a more in-depth explanation.  The Transhumanist 00:04, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Gba Majay Bma

message: I believe the song has no specific official title.
Its title in Burmese is "Naing Gan Daw Thi Chin" - just meaning "National Anthem".
However, the title "Gba Majay Bma" is strange in Burmese ears. It should be "Gba Majay Bma Pyay" or just "Gba Majay".
Because "Bma" serves as an adjective in this case, saying "Gba Majay Bma" will be just like saying "We love German" instead of "We love Germany".
:Yes, there's no official title for the national anthem of Myanmar. The name "Gba Majay Bma" is spelt incorrectly. It should be spelt "Kaba Makyei" or "Kaba Makyei Bamapyi", although kaba (which translates as world), rather than gaba is more preferred, despite the shift in pronounciation from k to g. j  in Burmese is spelt ch or ky in English (depending on the spelling in Burmese).

Talk:Market share

message: In the totality of business is market share really that common a business objective? I would have said that in 95% of commerce market share is unknown and other measures are used. Its ok for the SP100 businesses maybe but not for SMEs. --(talk)BozMo 22:08, 11 May 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: You are right that it is very difficult to calculate market share with certainty. However all but the smallest business do it. It usually involves obtaining industry sales figures from trade associations or commercial data suppliers, then dividing your own sales figures by this number. To get an idea how ubiquitous it is look at all the media and advertising ratings  calculations. These are all variants of market share calculations. Or talk to any stock analyst: They will know the SOM of all the companies they track. You are correct that there are many other objectives being used. A while back I saw a textbook that listed two and a half pages of them. And we have to keep in mind that companies typically use multiple objectives. This is because there are several types of objectives each applicable in its own area. For example, there are financial objectives, tactical objectives, strategic objectives (of which market share is one of the most important), short term objectives, long-term objectives, corporate level objectives, business level objectives, operational level objectives, etc. mydogategodshat 08:01, 12 May 2004 (UTC)

thread_title: Comments

message: Hi, I would like to ask something about the geometric definition of cone. Right now it's just connecting one point to the points of a set X. In general, one takes a space A, and a disjoint space B with a subset X, and connects all the points of A with X. If you agree with this it would be helpful for the discussion of singular quadrics and hermitian forms. Evilbu 2006-02-12 01:42:15 (UTC)
:There is no page for that concept that I know of, although conic solid is a special case.However, the name "cone" seems more appropriate for the case when A is a point. When A and X are arbitrary sets, calling the result a "cone" seems quite weird, like redefining "sphere" to include cylinders but not cubes.By the way, your definition seems to be garbled. You probably meant "A and B are subsets of the same affine space X" and then you take the union of all segments with one end in A and the other in B. Correct?All the best, Jorge Stolfi 06:12, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: OK. But shouldn't that be an affine space, rather than a projective space? (Projective spaces have trouble with line segments, right?) Or do you mean "connect with a straight line" rather than "connect with a line segment"? Perhaps this concept could be an article projective cone then? Jorge Stolfi 11:28, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

text: I have linked the article from cone, and made some changes of notation and markup. By WP rules, the first paragraph should be a workable definition (fixed). The two subspaces must belong to the same space otherwise the line is not defined (fixed).  It seems that the definition can be simplified to "the union of R and all lines joining a point of R to a point of A". Also what happens if R is empty - should we get empty, or A?
