Buffett gives away billions.

prob dodging the tax man.. but hey, if peeps in need get it then good for him. hopefully he starts a trend with all the mega rich. would be great if he gave some of it to ISARA. :)

Umm..that depends on the size of the holes and how much water is being poured.




I knew there would be someone to find something to complain about. The dude is giving away BILLIONS to the gates foundation which has already given away BILLIONS.
 
lol, I thought you meant jimmy buffett too, and was like....wtf?

but yea, good for him

He actually does have Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville and he has burgers on the menu. They use a software product from the company I trade time for cash.

(but you probably already knew that didn't you)
 
By the way, Jimmy Buffett is crazy successful - having retained the publishing rights to all his songs, parlayed his restaurants into a very successful chain, written his books (big sellers all) and catering to the parrot heads with merchandise galore. His last album hit #1 on the US charts.

And he flies (and has crashed) his own amphibious aircraft. And I understand he's the kind of guy who never says "sorry" - because he doesn't have to. One of those guys you'd like to have a drink with - and there's dang few of those around. For us more mature folk this lyric rings true:

Yes, I am a pirate. Two hundred years too late.
The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder,
I'm an over-forty victim of fate.
Arriving too late. Arriving too late


And yes, I'm now changing my avatar to a parrot head.

Sorry.

I checked out his Margaritaville in Vegas. It's a jumpin' li'l joint with live music.

yes you are correct and what you refer to is mass flow rate (m dot)

Due to Bernoulli's Law of Continuity, m1 = m2 , where the variables are :

m[ r, V, A]

which correspond to Density, Velocity, and area, now in three dimension we have to remember that the bucket is not a perfect rectangle, hence due to the fact that the bucket is more of a "cone" shape, we need to do some calculus in respect to time SINCE the area CHANGES WRT time. Now I can not remember the formulae of the top of my head, and I can't derive it from first principles (i need my notes) because you have to start off with the equation below[1]:

Do you carry the 2 or just forget it...wait, maybe I should just forget it...:Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)
 
Knowing as much as you do, makes me confused as to the motivation of your first comment.

soorweee guys, yea I sometimes drive my friends and family nuts also, yea its a bad habit of mine just over explaining stuff, usually they say "Anhar, SHUT UP" and then I grumble to my self hehe :)

Man, I feel sorry for my friend the other day, he just wanted to know if he should get a new computer..... 1 hour later hes aspleep :nads: , I get over excited quickly :badputer:

Anhar *takes a chill pill*

PS just to answer the solution is (I think, it was only a quick calculation on the back of a napkin):

[r*V*A]1 = [r*V*(R-m*h)^2*Pi]2 (where m in this case is the gradient of the bucket sides)

basically if ya fill faster than it drains, its gonna fill up,
if ya fill slower than it drains its gonna empty,
if ya fill at the same amount it drains its gonna stay the same.
