I don't want a drone coming outside my window; it's that simple. If you have a drop point for drones to deliver goods and services, fine. If you got a package, leave it in the back. But don't come up to my window knocking and say, "Are you in? Can I come in?" No.

Plus, these are airborne things. There's got to be a limit to how much they can carry. There's physics behind this. All right? If you carry a light box with a thumb drive in it that someone ordered, fine. But suppose I order a weight set? Suppose your drone is not carrying my dumbbells?

Okay, suppose you ordered a 5B bag of sugar. Or if you built the drone strong enough to carry heavy groceries, it will be loud and large. I don't see that happening. If I see a drone outside my window, I'm shooting it. Okay? I'm sorry, and I've never shot a gun in my life.

I'll go buy a gun just to shoot the drone that shows up outside my window. I don't know what kind of camera is on it; I don't know where it's from. I don't know. No, no, do something else with your drones, but don't put them by my window.

Mapping shapes | Performing transformations | High school geometry | Khan Academy

We’re told that triangles. Let’s see, we have triangle PQR and triangle ABC are congruent. The side length of each square on the grid is one unit, so each of these is one unit. Which of the following sequences of transformations maps triangle PQR onto tri…

Directional derivative

Hello everyone. So here, I’m going to talk about the directional derivative. That’s a way to extend the idea of a partial derivative. Partial derivatives, if you’ll remember, have to do with functions with some kind of multivariable input. I’ll just use t…

Evaluating composite functions: using graphs | Mathematics III | High School Math | Khan Academy

So we have the graphs of two functions here. We have the graph (y) equals (f(x)) and we have the graph (y) is equal to (g(x)). And what I wanna do in this video is evaluate what (g(f(…)). Let me do the (f(…)) in another color. (f(-5)) is… (f(-5)) is… An…
