I read that you use operant conditioning, with positive reinforcement. I've had good results with using positive reinforcement to get my cat to do certain things (she touches her food plate before we give it to her, she will jump up on my lap when I whistle a certain way, and she touches my hand when I draw it up above her nose) but I can't use positive reinforcement to remove a behavior.

She yowls constantly for an hour or two before it's time for dinner (a behavior learned thanks to my father giving her treats when she meows), and I would like to at the very least lessen it. Do you have any recommendations on approaches I could take?

Are you near Manhattan? If so, where's your favorite place to eat? I'll be stopping by the city in a few weeks, and would love to try new places!

Maybe try, a derivative is how fast a graph is going up/down at any point, and an integral is the amount of paint you'd need to paint under a graph.

What was the hardest balancing issue you've ever faced? What was the ultimate choice in that case?
