"so, what did you do this weekend?"

use the hölder and sοbolev inequalities often enough, and you might start believing in magic numbers.

in other news: other than LaTeχing and reLaTeχing, all i've done this weekend is compute exponents and constants ..

.. which is, really, a glorified arithmetic,
yet to some useful (analytιc) end.

i'm tempted now to use "hölder" as a verb, but that seems .. wrong, somehow. call me snobbish, i guess. \-:
