Does Wikipedia Suck on Science Stories?
An anonymous reader writes "An editor from Wired writes on his blog that Wikipedia sucks for science stories — not because they are inaccurate, but because of what he calls the 'tragedy of the uncommon': Too many experts writing about subjects in ways that no non-expert can understand. Would this be the dumbing-down of Wikipedia — or would it be a better resource for everyone?"
Perhaps you need to learn to use a website.
The summary is a bit difficult, then you get down to the subject of limits. Then you have to click on the limits link, (you know that's what hypertext is for, you click on a link of something you don't understand that that takes you to more detailed information). If you know basic algebra, it should be pretty simple. If you still don't understand that's there "Schaum's Outline of Calculus", or a calculus class at your local junior/community college where you can interact with a teacher or a TA. Of course if you don't understand basic algebra learn it and stay the fuck away from calculus until you do.
If someone is passing you on the right, you are an asshole for driving in the wrong lane.
