Fixbeat, in despite all my rage IT keeps me trapped like a rat in a cage.

Business apps at work? Shocking!

Where can I read these dumb nerd shit. Now I want to read it.

I’ve been saying this for years but everyone just called me a quack.

Well, you’re literally a talking duck, Dasquack 🦆

Just one more digit bro, imagine how many things youd discover bro, just one more, one more and it will be so much safer bro, It would help all mission just use 16digits bro

The first paragraph alone is gold, this is great

But they didn’t know him like I did

Lmao

NevermindNoMind, in A Neural Networks Approach to Predicting How Things Might Have Turned Out Had I Mustered the Nerve to Ask Barry Cottonfield to the Junior Prom Back in 1997

Now, a larger-than-necessary hidden layer may increase computational demands and the likelihood of overfitting. These are not concerns for our purposes, however, as we have no time constraints and it is highly improbable that a realistic model of Barry can be over-trained (Consolidated Report Cards: 1986-1998).

Thank you for sharing this, I love everything about it.

Midnitte, in A Neural Networks Approach to Predicting How Things Might Have Turned Out Had I Mustered the Nerve to Ask Barry Cottonfield to the Junior Prom Back in 1997

Over-training is also discussed, although the linear algebra teacher assures us that in Barry’s case this is not possible.

Brilliant.

What is the total mass gain if all lithium(3) became sulfur(16)? How many planets would become stars overnight?

GrayBackgroundMusic,

What is the total mass gain if all lithium(3) became sulfur(16)?

Related, there’s a Kurzgesagt video on what happens if you turn the entire earth into gold: www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB_GWz25B3Q

You have to make assumptions on what you keep constant: mass? volume? density? Each scenario is amusing in its own apocalyptic way.

Per Wolfram Alpha, sulfur is 4.62 times heavier; the earth is 0.002% lithium, so it would experience a net gain of 3.62 * mass of earth * 0.00002, or 4.3e20kg. That’s 7.24e-5 times heavier, so not much in the grand scheme of things.

Note that I’m neither a chemist, a physicist, or an astronomer, so I make no guarantee that I did this right.

Edit: misplaced decimal

xkforce,

4 zeros not 3. 0.00002

Ice Squid Condensation? Ice Squid Evaporation? Or is the punchline that you changed the chemistry of the genie?

I don’t get it.

Fur_Fox_Sheikh,

It’s solid -> liquid -> gas, but now replace all lithium (li) with sulfur (s). So spelling wise liquid becomes squid.

brown567,

Wouldn’t the first one be changed to sosd then? XD

MajorMajormajormajor,

Sounds like op was a little sosd when they came up with this post.

knorke3,

i’d hope that they were at least a little sosd because anything else tends to be rather unhealthy for humans…

cmgvd3lw,

What does this mean fr?

MashedTech,

I haven’t understood this year, maybe next year.

clay830, in Magic π

So it’s just a standard double precision floating point? Makes it seem like 15 decimal places was hand selected.

Biological life be like: ahaha entropy go brrrr

xkforce, in If I was smarter, I'd have gotten the bag.

The more PhDs I know and the closer I am to grad school, the more it feels like getting a PhD is about being stubborn than it is about being smarter than everyone in the room.

Yes.

TranscendentalEmpire,

In my experience it’s being stubborn or possessing a robust resiliency to mental health damage. Being smart, or better yet from a family that is wealthy enough to support you just makes everything a fair bit easier.

Also, making friends with your advisors doesn’t hurt either.

qaopjlll, in Magic π

At my last job I was bored so I wrote sql server functions to perform standard math operations on varchar(max) and used them to build factorial tables which I then used to iteratively calculate pi. I think I got up to around 100 digits before I got yelled at for bogging down the server and had to stop.
