november@lemmy.vgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your favorite math constant that is NOT a real number?English2·19 days agoZero is a real number, but interestingly, it’s also a pure imaginary number. It’s the only number that’s both things at once.

All super rad.
november@lemmy.vgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some of your unpopular opinions in math? (not about math)English2·19 days agoThat sounds like a philosophical position, not a mathematical one.
november@lemmy.vgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Those of you that have negative sentiments towards AI: What would you want to happen right now?English1·19 days agoGet back to me after you have a few dozen conversations with people who openly say “Well I asked ChatGPT and it said…” without providing any actual input of their own.
november@lemmy.vgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Those of you that have negative sentiments towards AI: What would you want to happen right now?English51·19 days agoI want people to figure out how to think for themselves and create for themselves without leaning on a glorified Markov chain. That’s what I want.
november@lemmy.vgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your favorite math constant that is NOT a real number?English2·20 days agoI’m a big fan of 10-adics, especially this one.
j is cool too, as is (1+j)/2.
november@lemmy.vgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some of your unpopular opinions in math? (not about math)English1·20 days agoOr 0! equals 1.
x factorial is the number of ways you can arrange x different things. There’s only one way to arrange zero things.
november@lemmy.vgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some of your unpopular opinions in math? (not about math)English1·20 days ago1 multiplied by itself 0 times is not 1, or at least, not only 1.
Sure it is. 1 is the multiplicative identity, the number you start at when you multiply anything. 2^2 is really 1x2x2. 2^1 is 1x2. So 2^0 is… just 1.
november@lemmy.vgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does TERF give a damn about Trans men going to Men Restrooms?English21·28 days agoThe thing you have to understand about TERF ideology is that they think:
- Men are evil rapists
- Women are dainty weak little waifs
- And, of course, gender is immutably determined by sex assigned at birth
So naturally they think trans women are evil rapey men trying to infiltrate women’s spaces, while trans men are weak-willed stupid little girls who’ve been seduced into Gender and don’t know any better.
Very feminist, much radical.

november@lemmy.vgto Games@lemmy.world•Would you like to see a mainline Pokemon game created in the old style?English2·1 month agoGens 6-9 I really don’t have almost any care for any of the important characters outside of the designs for characters/character art for characters like Geeta, Diantha, Brasius, Kiawe, and Rika. Those are pretty much the only characters who’s names I could even remember.
Not even Larry? That’s cold.
Comunism is a flavor of old-world authoritarianism, based upon the idea that mankind is incapable of choosing the right thing, so the right choice is instead mandated by law.
You know capitalist nations also have laws, right…?
Oh my god.
I’ve considered all of these things. I know my finances better than you do. I live with family and don’t even have to pay rent and I still don’t make enough to invest in your magic money market. I don’t need help from stockbros. You’re doing the financial equivalent of “you’re disabled? have you tried exercising and smiling more?” Maybe consider that you don’t know everything.
november@lemmy.vgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Countertop banana stand owners - what do you do when you only have one banana?English17·2 months agoEat it.
Oh sure, I’ll just wave my magic wand and make it so that after I pay all my bills I have thousands of dollars left over to invest!
Some of us live paycheck to paycheck, Karen.
I’ve never even owned stocks.
november@lemmy.vgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some lesser known (so no Walmart, Nestle, Amazon etc) shitty, ethically bankrupt, evil companies?English2·3 months agoThe lower minimum wage for disabled people isn’t limited to those on benefits.
Daiya’s okay.
