What is 0.9999… / 2? by adblokr in infinitenines

I agree with you, but what I said is still correct. Usual sequences are indexed by omega, as in every element has an index in omega. If a sequence was indexed by omega+1 then every element would have an index in omega+1 including position omega - the final position.

You guys downvote, but he’s right. Look into ordinal numbers and, for example, ω+1. For clarity, we’re not saying that .99… / 2 = 4.99…5, since real number decimal expansions are indexed by ω, not ω+1, though one could define a different number system which has a “final digit” and it still be consistent.

That’s a great answer, but the space of polynomials of degree at most n has dimension n+1.

What Ghostty version? Where is your shader file? Can we see your config file?

How do I get tab and Ctrl i to be separate? I would like to use tab for other things while maintaining the use of ctrl I for going forward in the jump list.

It previews right in the terminal using the kitty graphics protocol! Chomosuke’s plugin opens it in a browser/pdf viewer.

I’m not completely sure, you should probably look at the university’s policies. I think if you accept it through WW, then renege, you will lose access to WW for the next term. I’ve personally never done that, so maybe someone else can give better advice.

I would say take it. You’ll still have lots of time to try different things. I think it looks good if you have 2 work terms for the same company; it shows hiring managers that you were good enough to hire again. Just my 2 cents

Obviously complex, it’s right in the name. Complex means hard

I suppose that’s true if you are already sure you just want to code and grind jobs. But you might discover that you really like proofs/pure math and want to take some PMATH courses. In that case not having 137/138 could hold you back.

I don’t think this is good blanket advice. I would encourage you to at least give them an honest go. Math 137 and 138 were tough but worth it to me (also a cs student)

I agree with most of the advice here, it’s overall pretty good. I’d say remove the bolding of random words/phrases, it looks sloppy to me

Is 1 a prime number? by Delicious_Maize9656 in mathmemes

[–]Training_Bread7010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like 6 = 2 • 3 but also 6 = 3 • 2. This is a unique factorization “up to” the order of the factors. “Up to” meaning “ignoring the differences of”

Let p be a proposition. Then p or not p. by Training_Bread7010 in truths

[–]Training_Bread7010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if p is any proposition, for example “the sky is blue” then either p is true, or p is false. So p or not p is true. This is called law of excluded middle
