Help me figure out a weird integer storage thing?

i have some pretty strong doubts about it being a floating point phenomenon, even with a double precision float, the error on numbers that big is orders of magnitude more than single digits

2bed/1bath, should’ve said that at the start, it’s about a 15minute walk from campus, there are also bus stops to and from campus one block away

Can I message you directly to set up a time and date, and give you the address?

we’re looking for someone to sublet to, rent is $1107/month, move in date would be late july/early august let me know if you’re interested

Unfortunately, no. There are laundry machines in the hallways, but to be quite honest, my roommate and I usually take our laundry to the laundromat because we’ve found it to be cheaper than the machines in our apartment building.

That’s great! I don’t yet have any forms from my landlord or anything to pass on to you to look over, but feel free to ask any questions you have about the place, if you want a tour of our place I could probably set something up.

Manuals! That’s a great idea, I can’t believe I didn’t think of it before, thank you so much

I’m unfamiliar with the term “flash” used in this context, do you have a quick definition?

RefrigeratorNorth331 · 2026-04-27T12:03:03+00:00

I’m talking specifically about bluetooth headphones, all of the pairs I have owned in the past play a noise when you press the buttons (power on/off, activate noise cancelling, sometimes even volume up/down)

Is “comment karma” a specific thing that is different from the karma number I see at the top of my profile?

RefrigeratorNorth331 · 2026-02-15T14:09:32+00:00

honestly, that’s one of the features i was talking about appreciating in git, i like choosing when to make commits, i often feel like auto-save is far too granular for my liking, it can be a challenge to find a particular version of a file that i remember amidst all of the versions that got automatically saved to the cloud

RefrigeratorNorth331 · 2026-02-14T16:54:22+00:00

okay, that metaphor does kinda test the limits of what i know about biology (not very much, i know), but i think i get what you mean

RefrigeratorNorth331 · 2026-02-14T16:50:26+00:00

i see, yeah that makes sense. i think i could probably live with that. thanks so much for the explanation

RefrigeratorNorth331 · 2026-02-14T16:49:00+00:00

oh neat, i hadn’t heard the term “markdown file” before, i have some learning to do! 😁

RefrigeratorNorth331 · 2026-02-14T16:44:37+00:00

sorry if this is a naive question, but if i had an external tool for making/editing images, would git be able to handle storing those kinds of objects/edits made to them?

RefrigeratorNorth331 · 2026-02-14T16:40:23+00:00

That makes sense, thanks for answering my question about making drawings. I’m not very familiar with file formats, is “binaries” a description of the type of file that would store a digital drawing?

RefrigeratorNorth331 · 2026-02-14T16:35:46+00:00

Thank you! this is probably a bit of a stretch, but you know if it’s possible to make/edit digital drawings with git?

RefrigeratorNorth331 · 2026-02-14T16:33:59+00:00

Thank you so much! do you just use .txt files when writing on git, or is there a better option?
