Pronunciation wiki!

I finally found a very useful pronunciation tool:

http://www.forvo.com/ is a website which contains pronunciation sound clips in many different languages. As of January 2009, Forvo.com is the largest pronunciation guide website on the internet. All sound clips are created by users.

I am interested in the pronunciation of Swedish, so I use: http://www.forvo.com/languages-pronunciations/sv/. Words (and phrases) are arranged by category, popularity or alphabetically.

What measure theory is about

It's about counting, but when things get too large.
Put otherwise, it's about addition of positive numbers, but when these numbers are far too many.

The principle of dynamic programming

max_{x,y} [f(x) + g(x,y)] = max_x [f(x) + max_y g(x,y)]

The bottom line

Nuestras horas son minutos cuando esperamos saber y siglos cuando sabemos lo que se puede aprender.
(Our hours are minutes when we wait to learn and centuries when we know what is to be learnt.) --António Machado

 Αγεωμέτρητος μηδείς εισίτω.
(Those who do not know geometry may not enter.) --Plato

Sapere Aude! Habe Muth, dich deines eigenen Verstandes zu bedienen!
(Dare to know! Have courage to use your own reason!) --Kant
