PhD means very little nowadays, considering that it has degenerated to doing menial jobs at a university, often on behalf of private industry, writing some low-quality paper, usually in groups of 4 to a hundred, and hoping that it gets published in a journal with low circulation. The PhD thesis itself is just a bigger master's thesis and really, I know of a shit ton of doctorated people who let some undergraduate student write the thesis for them.';

Retard status: detected. Your "squares" are made of discrete triangles. The lines are shaded areas dumbfucks it's a trick question.';

'>word something in the vaguest way possible
>gee why dont thet get it
this question is either intentionally vague or written by someone way up the spectrum';

that has always been the point of degrees, postdoctoral research';

To me it sounded like the shaded part needs to be a square too';

The point of these gotcha questions is for tryhard preppies to fail them so the teacher can smugly explain why it's impossible.';

'>>196473073
How is the unshaded part also a square';

'>>196473796
nah thats some stupid double bluff teachers make up to coverup their own retardation
i doubt this is real, but if its real whoever wrote that question definitely has autism';

Almost...
Try again.';

'>>196474625
It can work, you just need to do extra math to measure an appropraite amount to shade';

How do you know the diagonal of the inner square is equal to the side length of the outer square? That's the only way to know it's exactly half.';

No, I'm aware. I'm just disillusioned';

the question is ill-phrased and from the point of view of a mathematician it doesn't make sense

that's what the Phd implied';

She's most definitely not a mathematician.';

And what does she have a PhD in? Emotional intelligence?';

'>>196478600
Then she should refer to herself as a doctor and not a PhD. These are two completely different qualifications. With a medical degree, you can put people on drugs. With a regular PhD, that's not worth half as much.';

Remember it's 4th grade math. If it's not the fastest and easiest answer then your approach is wrong.';
