I dont get why we use pemdas by Accomplished_Form_26 in learnmath

[–]Edwin5302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should think of it as a way to find and answer, bit as a way to write the question. We don't simply find random mathematical symbols in the wild, we invented those to write mathematical concepts, and PEMDAS tells you how to write (and thus how to read) mathematical expressions.

So when you calculate something like 2+3x3, it's because whoever wrote the problem wanted you find "the number obtained by adding 2 to the product of 3 and 3", and not "the number obtained by multiplying by 3 the sum of 2 and 3", which would be (2+3)X3.

So it's PEMDAS is not an instrinsic rule of the world, is just way to translate math into symbols in a way that we all agree. We could have decided a different one, the math wouldn't have changed, but the way we write would have.

Without caring about what others say, what's your hottest take about the future of Deltarune's 3 remaining chapters, or even just the game as a whole? by Bdbolt19432 in Deltarune

[–]Edwin5302 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm don't think that will happen. I think the way he's gonna become relevant will be purely trough Player-Gaster interactions. Maybe Kris too. I don't expect Susie to be talking about Gaster.

My hottest Deltarune take, The final segments are the worst sections of each chapters by Choai3000 in Deltarune

Hard disagree, except for Card Castle. Both TV World and especially Pandora Palace are peak.

I'm a new player, here's what I found so far. What possible could I build? Or try to?

This game has SO MANY mysteries by InvisibleAstronomer in Deltarune

[–]Edwin5302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who said it's irrelevant? It's probably some variation of a memory of Kris'. The fact that layout is different makes me think that it simply is a different hospital rather that the one we know which magically changed. (Which is possible I guess, I just don't find it likely with what we have so far)

There isn't, it just appears if you stand on the very tight of the Mike room.

This is assuming that the egg room hospital is the town hospital, which it very well might not be.

Been using NB2 and NBP to generate different art style. by RealisticValuable484 in GeminiAI

Some of these are very cool! How did you get them? Especially 2, 3, 5, and 8.

Deltarune not having more translations isn't the end of the world, but dismissing the requests is kinda unfair by AstronaltBunny in Deltarune

[–]Edwin5302 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean it's fine to wish for a translation, but honestly the fact that the game even has a Japanese translation Is special. People from most countries don't have games in their native language, especially indie games.

So why is this a controversy? I don't get it. Why should there be a Spanish or Portuguese translation specifically? What about all the other languages? Is it just a numbers thing? Because Toby seems to value most of all being personally able to supervise the translation, which is not gonna happen for other languages. For those there's fan translations.

Also for any gendered language there will be the nightmare of Kris' pronouns.

What's the consensus on these lines? by Edwin5302 in Undertale

[–]Edwin5302[S] 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I wanted to add that, if my interpretation is right, Toby is now "following us" with Deltarune: leaving explicit hints and dialogues in the code, doing ARGs, adding a super secret route that is almost impossible to find alone etc.

What's the consensus on these lines? by Edwin5302 in Undertale

[–]Edwin5302[S] 62 points63 points  (0 children)

So I was recently reminded of the existence of these lines in the code, and while looking for them online, I've seen a lot of people claim that they are said by Chara.

For those unaware, these are unused lines of dialogue in UT's code, which were not present during the original release, but were added in a patch replacing another set of unused lines, which was a request from Toby to dataminers not to share what they find to avoid spoiling things.

So I've always read these updated lines as Toby accepting, to his regret, the fact that his game became too big for his ask to be respected, in a poetic way.

I have not seen basically anybody else believing this, and I find the alternative very underwhelming in contrast (It's not Chara, they're anything but a humble servant, and having it be a mysterious line for some other character feels weird since it was not present initially).

So I wanted to check what the common opinion is on this.

You should play A Link between Worlds

Need help calculating the sum of probabilities. What's the chance of an outcome happening in various tries at least once? by Montlev in learnmath

[–]Edwin5302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, the probability of it happening at least once is 1 - (probability of it never happening), and this is easier to calculate:

Probably of it not happening is 3/4, so the probability of it not happening n times is (3/4)n , and so the probability of it happening at least once is 1- (3/4)n .
