All right, we're going to haul up now and come in. Weird fishing, there's fish around. There's a couple bites; you don't mark that many. It's just very strange. There's a ton of boats out here; everybody's trying to get their last licks in before the end of the season. A lot of fish ate other people's baits; they didn't get to us. They're around, but it's still strange.

Ranger, at a certain point, you make a decision to go in. You can't keep torturing yourself waiting for a tuna fish to bite. I don't want to go in right now; we've been on an amazing hot streak, and going in means we've accepted that the streak is over. You've got baited lines hundreds of feet deep, and once you pull those up, you're out of the game.

Oh my God, don't reel it in! [Music] Oh, five more minutes! Look at him, look at him! Why did we do this? We could have had a triple. You don't know that. For a great fisherman like Brad, this is the worst thing that could happen. We missed a huge chance by only a couple of minutes. We missed it; it happens. I'm pissed because that was the best set of marks we had all year, and we just pulled our lines in. Like, it's not fair. Would we have hooked up? Probably. Would we have landed it? Who knows? I'm not... Jesus Christ, that was a huge kick in the dick. Right in the bald.

Rewriting expressions with exponents challenge 1 | Algebra 1 (TX TEKS) | Khan Academy

So we have this pretty complicated, some would say hairy, expression right over here. What I want you to do is pause this video and see if you can simplify this based on what you know about exponent rules. All right, now let’s do this together. There’s m…

Why Democracy Is Mathematically Impossible

Democracy might be mathematically impossible. (serious music) This isn’t a value judgment, a comment about human nature, nor a statement about how rare and unstable democratic societies have been in the history of civilization. Our current attempt at demo…

Graphing geometric sequences | Algebra 1 (TX TEKS) | Khan Academy

We’re told a sequence is defined by F of n is equal to 1⁄5 * F of n-1. So each term, whatever the value of the function is there, where the sequence is for that term, it’s 1 times the previous term for each whole number n, where n is greater than one. Th…

Segment congruence equivalent to having same length | Congruence | Geometry | Khan Academy

So what I have here are a few definitions that will be useful for a proof we’re going to do that connects the worlds of congruence of line segments to the idea of them having the same length. So first of all, there’s this idea of rigid transformations, w…

Differentiability and continuity | Derivatives introduction | AP Calculus AB | Khan Academy

What we’re going to do in this video is explore the notion of differentiability at a point. That is just a fancy way of saying, does the function have a defined derivative at a point? So let’s just remind ourselves of a definition of a derivative. There …
