Since I started working as a developer I've been gaining weight, then doing some exercise and watching my diet to lose some weight, quit exercising and dieting and gain weight again... 
This time I started running.
Lost about 1.50000000000000004 kg already though

I can do that by skipping a single meal...

If you would have breathed in and held it, it would only have been 1.49998782866425424 kg lost. Utterly impossible after running, though.

Hi all,
Just wanted to say thank you for the join, and i look forward to sharpening my rather blunt skills and asking some father newbie questions to start with.

I live in an old(*), broken-down house. Does that count?
(*) Front half of the house, built in 1872. In 1892, moved to its current location ½ a mile away. 1920's, built on the rear portion of the house, including dining room, kitchen, and laundry. Has spent all those years settling at various rates on/around the supports in the basement. No redeeming architectural features whatsoever.

Yes will give you a waiver.

Don't waive too hard please, something might fall off and hurt someone.

Last week while working on a new report, I needed a formula that would calculate a shortage/overage for a variable and had the equation worked out as follows:
a/(a+b) = c/d where I was solving for the variable a.
It's been 30 years since I had algebra, and I struggled with a half dozen attempts at getting 'a' by itself on the left side, but nothing checked out.
On a hunch, I did a quick google search and found this:
https://www.mathway.com/Algebra[^]
All you do is type in your formula, then it asks which variable you want to solve for. Brilliant!

Handy - and quick too!
Can I suggest an extra posting here: Free Tools Discussion Boards[^] - it doesn't get scrolled into oblivion so quickly there.
