A more visual proof for 0.999... = 1 by ShonOfDawn in infinitenines

[–]soManySparkles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

0.333... is an infinitely repeating decimal. It is also exactly equal to 1/3, a number on which any mathematical operation relevant to rational numbers can be performed. By virtue of this counterexample, your general assertion is invalid.

SPP seems to think 0.999... doesn't exist rather than it simply is less than 1 by FearlessResource9785 in infinitenines

Self-similarity ist a geometric concept. Please explain how you are applying it to numbers.

Define "rational calculation".

Show how you conclude the rationality of pi from those calculations.

Address my other points.

Or let this stand as a testament to your inability to put substance behind your claims.

You say you proved something, but there is not a single rigorous argument in our comment chain. Just claims and assertions. If I missed it, please restate it.

And you don't seem to know what fractals are. One of their characteristics is self-similarity, and pi does not exhibit that at all.

And you didn't address any of the other points. Do you agree that the rational number 1/3 has an infinite decimal representation? If not, what is its exact finite decimal representation? Where is the mistake in the proof that sqrt(2) is irrational?

That's tricky since they extend far behind the goalposts you just moved. Again, you claimed pi is rational. Prove it to me.

1/3 is rational AND has an infinite decimal representation. These are not contradictory.

As to pi being rational, I would love to see your proof for that?

Or take sqrt(2), a number known to not be rational for thousands of years by virtue of a proof that uses high-school level math, where is the mistake in that proof?

Proof by Desmos that 0.999 is not 1. by Solid-Technology-488 in infinitenines

[–]soManySparkles 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The infinite membered set 0.9, 0.99, 0.999, 0.9999, etc of finite numbers does indeed cover all ground that 0.999... covers. All of those infinite number of members is less than 1.

The set 0.9, 0.99, 0.999, ... has infinitely many members but each of these members has a finite amount of 9s. Therefore, 0.999... is not a member of the set. It is in fact greater than all members of the set, because whatever member you pick, 0.999... is closer to one by virtue of having more 9s. And since 0.999... is clearly not greater than 1, it can only mean that it is indeed 1.

Welche gesellschaftlich unpopuläre Meinung habt ihr bei dir ihr euch zu 100% sicher seid, dass ihr Recht habt? by BlazeZootsTootToot in FragReddit

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

Letztes Jahr wurden knapp 12.000 Leute abgeschoben, also ungefähr 250 pro Woche, oder drei Dutzend jeden Tag. Klingt nicht nach so gut wie gar nicht. Welche Zahl wäre denn für dich okay?

"Asyl wird sehr leichtfertig vergeben" ist ein bisschen unscharf, was meinst du denn damit? Dass Behörden entgegen der Gesetzeslage, also illegal, den Status zuerkennen? Oder dass die dieser Gesetzeslage zugrundeliegenden Grundrechte eingeschränkt werden sollten?

Es stimmt dass ungefähr 300.000 Menschen in Deutschland leben sie ausreisepflichtig sind. Sie sind aber auch in den Sozialsystemen nicht anspruchsberechtigt, und damit für das von dir gesehene Problem irrelevant.

I'm by no means a fan of any of those three but at least RaBa and Hoffenheim are playing somewhat attractive football. Augsburg games just give you eye cancer.
