I went through engineering school, and 20 years of work (not as an engineer), before finding a calculus text that explained why the derivative of x^2 is 2x. Along with many practical applications of calculus.
That book was Calculus Made Simple, published in 1914. Thanks, Project Gutenberg!
Edit: derivative of x^2 is 2x. Got my differentiation and integration confused!
Even if he works twice as much as one of his employees, which I do not concede, he is being paid 500 or 1,000 times as much. For that much money, I would expect nothing less than 24/7.
Taylor doesn't even sing her own songs, for those $5,000 concert tickets.
WordPerfect's "Reveal Codes" mode was the best feature a word processor ever had. You could see exactly what was causing your formatting problems, and surgically fix them. It's like viewing the HTML of a web page.

There's a scene in Brooklyn 99, or one of the characters sniffs and says, "what's that smell?"
"That's the absence of urine," is the reply.
I am a big fan of MyNoise, which mixes real-life recorded sounds, but you have a ridiculous amount of control over almost everything.
It's browser-based, so compatible with any device. Once it has downloaded the sounds, it doesn't use any more bandwidth.
Definitely worth supporting with a donation.

Not Canadian, but European: Language Transfer is the best language learning system you can find. Free, too!
I have used their Spanish course, and it is excellent.
