v2alt: Jon, what is the word that Physicists use when Mathematicians are being annoying? 10:47
v2alt: I need to use it 10:47
v2alt: You know, when they need to exclude the possibility of e.g. the continuous but nowhere differentiable function. 10:48
v2alt: It’s not degenerate 10:49
v2alt: but I think it sounds like the function has a disease 10:49
v2alt: But it sort of means “contrived” 10:53
v2alt: not “pedantic” 10:55
v2alt: Oh I’ve got it “pathological” 10:55
