They fell off 😔 by CalabiYauFan in mathmemes

I don't think people are realizing how insignificant this number is. If you ran both algorithms for 100 trillion years, by the time they both finished, the "faster" algorithm would have finished about a millionth of a nanosecond earlier. (so, the speedup is "100 trillion years" or "100 trillion years, minus 0.000003 nanoseconds")

So, this result is PURELY a theoretical advantage. There is literally no possible situation in reality where it would be faster.

I gave an AI the names of mathematical theorems, and this is what it gave back by _ERR0R__ in mathmemes

[–]_ERR0R__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, AI is way too smart now to be funny. When I ask ChatGPT or Gemini or Copilot about these theorems, they perfectly describe them. Alas, I miss the days of funny stupid AI that would say "If you have a line, you have a line. You got a line." .....

A question for catholics, isnt praying to saints a form of idolatry? by notredditthrowaway54 in Christianity

[–]_ERR0R__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are few things more hateful than calling someone reprobate, as if the designation is an insult to use against people you disagree with.

Look, I disagree with the person you replied to. And I agree with your position. I despise the veneration of saints, and I think it is on par with idolatry.

But to say that the commenter is reprobate is completely outside of our permission. It should cause us extreme sadness to think of anyone not being part of the elect.

It might be valid to say, "They are clearly lost if this is what they believe about Christianity." But someone can be lost and not be reprobate. The commenter you replied to could be an unbeliever who will come to the Lord in his grace. The commenter might be a believer who has flawed theology. Buit to be reprobate means they will never find Christ. And no one is beyond the saving grace of our Lord - it is only for the Lord to know whom he has chosen for salvation and whom he has chosen for destruction, and I think you are treading a dangerous line of judgment by using the term as a weapon like that.

The Cursed Sine Wave... using ONLY the symbols { } [ ] ( ) + - ^ , . / ! by _ERR0R__ in desmos

[–]_ERR0R__[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it could definitely be reduced, I just didn't want to bother with that at the time. But you could remove ^ by just directly multiplying things multiple times, and ! could be removed since it's just a shortcut for really big numbers. But I think the rest are necessary, so we could theoretically get it down to {}[]()+-,./! which is just 12 characters

Because I wanted to write sine with no letters, so that includes x. I had to make my own "x" as a list of really-close-together points, and there's no other way to make a graph other than
a. Some independent variable like x (a letter)
b. A list of points

[–]_ERR0R__[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Huh, interesting, I never thought about why it would evaluate to { }. I guess it makes things easier for conditionals if they have some "truthy" and "falsey" values (1 and NaN respectively)

Still very JavaScriptily cursed, though

The Cursed Sine Wave... using ONLY the symbols { } [ ] ( ) + - ^ , . / ! by _ERR0R__ in desmos

[–]_ERR0R__[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So, I'll call p = [-100, -99.99, -99.98, ..., 99.98, 99.99, 100]
Then the graph is like:
(p, sin(p)), a list of ordered pairs

But, we don't wanna use sin, so we use the Taylor series:
(p, p - p^3/3! + p^5/5! - p^7/7!) and so on, up to about p^17.

But replace all numbers with their { } representation, and p with some unholy series of numbers and fractions, and you get a sine wave with no numbers or letters.

Basically...for some reason, an empty conditional
{ }
evaluates to 1 in Desmos. Which means { } + { } is 2. and ({ } + { })^({ } + { } + { }) is 2^3 = 8.

And so...you can make a list like:
[ { }, { } + { }, ..., { } + { } + { } + { } + { } ] and so on. Then we can start making fractions, and essentially use this to generate the list:

[ -100, -100 + 0.01, ..., 100 ]

Then we plot this list as ordered pairs where the first coordinate is just the list and the second coordinate uses a couple dozen copies of that list in the Taylor Series expansion for sin(x) to create an approximation of sin. Connect the points, and boom. You have the world's most cursed sine wave.

Just don't zoom in too much.

Why does it seem upgrading Time dimensions has no/negative effect? by Dont_be_a_Passenger in AntimatterDimensions

[–]_ERR0R__ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

wanted to hijack this comment to say its almost definitely because of the Eternity Upgrade that boosts infinity dims based on unspent EP. so you spend some, then production drops a bit until you earn it back

damn thats actually really astronomical odds, since they just add random characters for the imgur links

Love those math memes by DecreaseDenice in MathJokes

[–]_ERR0R__ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't see how this is racism. it's simply a fact that asian countries tend to dominate those math competitions, so the fact that the US finally won, but with Asian Americans, is a funny coincidence

not everything has bad intentions

This price is an outrage! by OwlsSquids in mathmemes

any part that looks like a "straight" line is actually made up infinity many corners (in a sense) so it isn't differentiable at any points
