Dev and Demo

These two clippings. Dev The root word is develop . It's the clipped version of the word "developer". Dev = developer. The devel part. Demo Demo = demonstration. The demon part. To quote Noam Chomsky (from an interview by David Barsamian): ...the general population doesn't know what's happening, and it doesn't even know that it doesn't know. 🤔🙂‍↕️ We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false. attributed to William Casey, CIA Director under Reagan Did he actually say it? Well... there's no verified recording or transcript , but the quote comes from Barbara Honegger , who was part of the Reagan transition team. She claimed Casey said it during a meeting in early 1981. Her account? He said it casually, as if commenting on the weather. Could he have said it? Absolutely. It's on-brand for Cold War-era spooks. Analysis Now, what's the correlat...

Math: How to Convert Decimal Point to Fraction

Non-Repeating Decimal 0.05 to Fraction 0.05 can be written as $5/100$ $5/100$ can be reduced by finding the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) from $5$ and $100$, which is $5$. Then divide both numerator (the top fraction ➡️ $5$) and denominator (bottom part ➡️ $100$) by $5$. $0.05 = 5/100 = 5/100 : (5/5) = (5 : 5)/(100 : 5) = 1/20$ So, $0.05 = 1/20$ ✅ 0.65 to Fraction 0.65 can be written as $65/100$ $65/100$ can be further simplified by finding the GCF, $5$. We divide both fraction parts by $5$. $0.65 = 65/100 = 65/100 : (5/5)$ = $(65 : 5)/(100 : 5) = 13/20$ Therefore, $0.65$ is $13/20$ ✅ 3.175 to Fraction 3.175 can be written as $3 + 0.175$ Convert the $0.175$ to fraction ➡️ $175/1000$ So we have a mixed fraction $3 175/1000$ $3.175 = 3 + 0.175$ $3 + 175/1000 = 3 + (175/1000 : (25/25))$ $3 + (175:25)/(1000:25) = 3 7/40$ $3.175 = 3 7/40$ ✅ Repeating Decimal 0.111111... to Fraction We have one-pattern repeating s...
