    The Cricket Thread

    Re: The Official Cricket Thread If the highest run chase ever was 420, declare at 420 and make it obvious that Australia have to make a world record to win. Extra pressure that way, rather than just arbitrarily getting 500 and going 'okay go with that', i think.

    Free buses from central station (at the eddy ave bus stop) to UNSW?

    Yeah I don't get why people skip the dip. If you don't dip the tickets, that means the bus company thinks there are less people using the buses than there actually are - so they allocate less buses.

    Log differentiation

    Chain rule. \frac{d}{dx} \ln{u} = \frac{1}{u} So: \frac{d}{dx} \ln{(\ln(x))} = \frac{1}{\ln(x)}\times\frac{1}{x}

    How mathematical is a double major in finance/economics?

    In short, not very. In finance you'll just end up plugging numbers into equations and Year 10 maths, while in Economics you'll have to learn some interesting stuff like optimisation which uses some level of mathematics - but not too much I think.

    UNSW O Week 2014 chat thread

    I went to the ASB welcome - went for an hour, was led outside for some food, grabbed it and quietly left. The rest of it was probably a campus tour or something but... yeah.

    Cityrail travel ticket problem

    Probably, since Redfern is before Central. And I think so, as iirc, those stations are on the shortest path from Padstow to Central. But why get a MyTrain Monthly? You can't get concessions with those, iirc.
