[sweet geyser]

Accept that dude is offensive to her, and dude is not always gender neutral and move on with your life. @void comet

[reef carbon]

im off the clock

i can swear like a sailor if i want to

[magic python]

A therapist would make me worse.

[reef carbon]

no the fuck he aint

[magic python]

I don't want or need it.

[old yew]

how?

[void comet]

I have literally said that it is offensive, i agree in that part but it is not transphobic because it is a gender neutral word

[silent junco]

[silent junco]

move on

[deft elm]

that says a lot about u wro (feminized bro)

[old oak]

Surely feminized bro would be sis

[magic python]

Forcing me into therapy without my consent is gonna damage my mental health obviously

[reef carbon]

...

[void comet]

Dude honestly not,

[wraith shuttle]

Honestly its sad. its 2026, yet people have issues with other peoples pronouns 🤦‍♂️

[void comet]

they literally get paid to help you @magic python

[reef carbon]

ANYTHING to not call me a normal word.

[heavy pier]

COMMON SENSE YALL COMMON SENSE BASIC RESPECT AINT THAT HARD it shouldnt be i hope in 2026

[sweet geyser]

Forcing therapy is going to make things worse.

[magic python]

Help I don't need.

I don't need to be helped.

I am fine the way I am

[deft elm]

i am trying to be adaptive i am learning just like equations

[old yew]

You said you had a disorder

how is that being fine

it's something to treat

[mental vector]

I beg your pardon sir
May I tag you in a help channel so that you could help me with my question?

[reef carbon]

YOU COULD LITERALLY HAVE USED "GIRL" INSTEAD OF COMING UP WITH A ""FEMINIZED"" VERSION OF THE B-WORD

[magic python]

Yeah gender dysphoria, like a therapist would help me

[void comet]

Are you a doctor to say this?

[silent junco]

great, adapt to respecting other people for the next 24 hours

[reef carbon]

christ.

[wraith shuttle]

Ann i think hes ragebaiting 😭

[magic python]

Also disorders don't need treatment all the time?

[reef carbon]

well his ass is getting blocked obviously

[vagrant mantle]

@silent junco is this a common experience? like do you tell people to stop engaing and then they just keep going often?

[magic python]

I have adhd, I don't need a special person to help me

[old yew]

they don't?

Medication

[silent junco]

yes

[magic python]

No???

[old oak]

You haven't been using the internet for very long, have you

[sweet geyser]

My therapist actually said it to me, thank you. Forcing therapy is not useful. Forcing anything is not helpful.

[dawn sentinel]

No they don’t. Just talk to inanimate objects they will help u

[magic python]

I can live perfectly fine without adhd meds

[void comet]

im my country we have like a word for dude in spanish and its gender neutral @reef carbon

[vagrant mantle]

nah i have i just thought discord had an age restriction or something.

[heavy pier]

I have ADD (adhd without the hyperactivity) i take medication but that doesn’t help me always to the fullest

[reef carbon]

why are there just so so so fucking many people who just want to do ANYTHING to get a word in edgewise that disrespects my gender identity or forces another "bro" or "dude" down my throat.

[heavy pier]

not wise to say gng

[void comet]

And how did that turn out?

[reef carbon]

it does. 13 y/o.

[vagrant mantle]

damn they really gotta get that up

[magic python]

Honestly they need to get a life, they probably wouldn't like being called girl so why call us dude

Same thing.

[silent junco]

i actually agree, but its unfortunately probably infeasible at this point

[void comet]

i agree its about basic respect man but you should go so harsh onm them i think it only makes it worse

[reef carbon]

because angry trans girl == funny, or something. or they're actually rightwing chuds who get a kick out of deliberately being transphobic and also arguing about it.

[reef carbon]

MAN

AGAIN

[old yew]

How about dudette

[reef carbon]

YOU CALLED ME A MAN

AGAIN

[magic python]

Yeah

[reef carbon]

absolutely fucking atrocious, never call me that.

[silent junco]

finally i get to mute you

[sweet geyser]

EVERYONE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE STOP ENGAGING JUST GET OUT THE CHANNEL AND LEAVE THIS ALONE. IF YOU CANT ACCEPT PEOPLES PREFERENCES OR YOURE VERY UPSET WITH SOMEONE IN HERE DNI WITH THEM OR BLOCK, PLEASE AND THANK YOU.

[magic python]

:3

[vagrant mantle]

anyway

[magic python]

So uh... how is everybody?

[steel scaffold]

discussy 2

[steel scaffold]

i havent slept in like 17 hours so eepy lol wbu?

[sweet geyser]

phew 🤧 I’m doing alr

[sweet geyser]

real 🥹🫶

[magic python]

Conscious ig 😭

[vagrant mantle]

nonchalant way of saying awake

[magic python]

Memory not memorying

[vast wraith]

should have long ago honestly

[magic python]

Oh true...

[silent junco]

i wish, but unfortunately i dont get to mute people for being obnoxious debatelords

[vagrant mantle]

i think it was rage bait more than debate

[reef carbon]

did you not get to mute when yessir1 started misgendering me

[vast wraith]

we he wasnt just “debating” he was very explicitly being rude

[vagrant mantle]

is that the right usage of than?

[reef carbon]

yes

[magic python]

"Don't call me man"
"Okay"
"..."
"Hey man"

Like wtf

[vast wraith]

is that allowed by the rules?

[silent junco]

well first offense seemed to be a genuine mistake

[reef carbon]

there were like 2 offenses afterward

blurgh

[silent junco]

oh sorry i must have missed those, my bad

[misty swift]

🤔

[wraith shuttle]

I feel like the person was trolling idk

[reef carbon]

im very miffed right now.

[magic python]

Me when I have a diamond beside my name with my pronouns:

[misty swift]

context

[silent junco]

im sorry, yeah you have every right to be

[magic python]

Transphobic idiot who doesn't understand English masculine pronouns

[coarse pelican]

Hello everyone, how are you guys doing?

[silent junco]

hello

[misty swift]

Ohh

[vagrant mantle]

hello

[deep mango]

Hullo Doctah

[coarse pelican]

how are you?

[sweet geyser]

I think it was against the second rule of social channel plus rule four since it wasn’t respectful , I could be wrong though

[sweet geyser]

Good!! Hbu?

[vagrant mantle]

im good thanks for asking

logged on discord for some short entertainment and its been interesting

[vast wraith]

no he almost certainly did but kept using them maliciously

[magic python]

True, I like giving a little benefit of the doubt tho

[coarse pelican]

I'm fine, Where are you chatting from?

[wraith shuttle]

''guys''?

[vagrant mantle]

0/10 rage bait

[coarse pelican]

Sorry the law

[cloud rover]

Not to be a total arse about this lol, but dude is a noun, not a pronoun

[magic python]

Fineee masculine nouns....

[zealous garden]

Dude is unisex

I'm a dude, he's a dude, she's a dude, we're all dudes

[junior veldt]

it's still masc

[zealous garden]

https://tenor.com/view/good-burger-kel-mitchell-ed-im-a-dude-hes-a-dude-gif-4322957

[magic python]

Oh god please don't argue I just don't like it when people call me it

[junior veldt]

and that should be enough

[zealous garden]

It is, but that doesnt make it not unisex

[cloud rover]

yk ik, but it warranted saying

[silent junco]

can we not rehash this please

[cloud rover]

also it really is going to vary from person to person

[zealous garden]

Rehash?

[silent junco]

there was a whole thing about this earlier

[junior veldt]

yes, but it's perfectly valid for someone to ask to not be called it

[cloud rover]

What this should have really boiled down to is not about gender, but simply that someone didn't want to be addressed with a specific word

[zealous garden]

This

[zealous garden]

Based

[cloud rover]

yh I'm not disagreeing on that point

[junior veldt]

uh huh...

[zealous garden]

Rip, I'll keep my discussion char 2 then

[magic python]

Either way, it's like how calling someone sexy is just uncool

[silent junco]

thanks

the same goes for the rest of you

[cloud rover]

(also, not to just go in guns blazing at such an instance, since it over-escalates)

[magic python]

People don't like being referred to with some words

[zealous garden]

So, there's no witt theorem in char 2?

[silent junco]

please move on from the topic

[magic python]

:3

[zealous garden]

If so I'm shook

I need a counterexample

[cloud rover]

Anyone got some D&D advice for the Bloodlust mechanic in the Bloodhunter class? /hj

[silent junco]

i guess not

[zealous garden]

What about nonsingular completions?

[zealous garden]

[cloud rover]

Well acc it's the Lycan subclass tbh

[silent junco]

idk anything about d&d sorry

[zealous garden]

No, I only run warlocks and homebrew warlocks that use different stats

[zealous garden]

(I wish this was a joke but the only non warlock I ran was a Shaman, a homebrew class that's literally warlock with WIS spellcasting and druid flavor text)

Oh wait no I was a Paladin for one whole session

[sweet geyser]

D&D is so peak

[neon whale]

Hello

K

[random ridge]

agreed, although i haven’t played since i started college ;-;

[timid bronze]

@deep mango Dear ryc,

Did you want to play now.

[deep mango]

Deer Alley,
Know. Eye wood, butt eye half two clothes won I cousin bedlam star too dan sin miser a bell um.

[timid bronze]

What the fuck

Did lil bro have 10 shots of vodka or what

[silent junco]

ryc is a lightweight

[timid bronze]

I am most cofused about the "eye half two clothes won I cousin" 💔

Same with "dan sin miser"

[deep mango]

im pretty much a creative legend

[velvet dagger]

Have you tried chaining the last letter of each of those words and then reading that backwards?

[deep mango]

Ill just let you ponder on that for a while

[velvet dagger]

Because I didn't

Probably not a strat here

[timid bronze]

@formal wadi Look at this drunk ass boi

[timid bronze]

This hurts my head a lot more than his text

[timid bronze]

SO ARE WE PLAYING OR NOT

[deep mango]

No...

[timid bronze]

Ok

See

It wasn't that hard

[silent junco]

no. i would, but i have to close one eye cuz in bed ??? miserable um

[timid bronze]

LMFAO

[silent junco]

"no. i would, but i have to close one eye cuz in bed. lambs start to dance in miserable um"

[timid bronze]

You are dedicating too much time to this weirdo ;-;

Don't bother with Richard

Hi fiscussy 2

[timid bronze]

Sometimes I feel like my Mac is going to die one day with all these mods I'm testing @sonic field

But this mod adds so many cute biomes wth

[jagged forge]

what shaders do u use

[timid bronze]

Complementary Reimagined + heres my settings (the rest is the default)

Wait erm my water's was accidentally reset

[jagged forge]

oh i was using that exact one on my other profile

someone recommended it with the terrain pack i was trying out

[timid bronze]

I like my water a bit more on the teal side

[timid bronze]

Yeah I love CR tbh

[young fern]

Guys why do math ppl like Minecraft like always

In my experience

[timid bronze]

I'm not a math person

I just joined this server out of no where and made friends so I decided to stay xd

[jagged forge]

so far i like sildur’s shaders better

i think it’s my favorite out of the 3 i’ve tried

oh actually i might be using complementary unbound

[timid bronze]

Does it have the aurora

[jagged forge]

idk

[timid bronze]

That's what I like most about CR

Yeah I mean unbound

Not reimagined

Oops

[jagged forge]

hmm, i’m not sure, would have to test that in a cold biome ig

[timid bronze]

In CU you can set the aurora regardless

Xd

[jagged forge]

it’s not special if u see it every night smh

for some reason my game looks better if i take a photo of my tv vs a screenshot

my puny phone camera can’t really capture a lot of the details in the dark areas though

[timid bronze]

SHUT UP

IT IS

[timid bronze]

This hurts my eyes

Why is it SO bright

[jagged forge]

it's not as bright irl

it's just the phone camera sucks i guess

[timid bronze]

Damage control

what

[brittle jasper]

HDR shenanigans.
Unsolved in 2026 btw

[timid bronze]

Nothing tops Complementary shaders

Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora Aurora

[jagged forge]

tiktok brainrot but replace aura with aurora

[timid bronze]

Shut the fuck up

I'm not amukh

[jagged forge]

i was wondering if any minecraft shaders do hdr rendering actually but it seems not

this isnt even hdr tho it's just a regular screenshot

but i did change the color space to REC2020

and i think windows did some shenanigans there when i took a screenshot

[timid bronze]

Kimchi mod

[jagged forge]

kimchi a large meal?

[brittle jasper]

Even after considering Windows sux, does Linux make it better

[timid bronze]

I'd eat a huge bowl of kimchi ngl

[jagged forge]

i would not

well

radish kimchi is good

i saw that @timid bronze …

[timid bronze]

?

What's wrong jellyfish?

[jagged forge]

why r people so weird about spiciness anyway

kimchi isn’t even that spicy

[timid bronze]

Depends on who is making it

[timid bronze]

?

THIS IS WHAT I MEAN

YOU DEFINITELY ARE SCARED OF SPICE

[jagged forge]

i have never had kimchi that was painfully spicy

[jagged forge]

wtf are u talking about.

[timid bronze]

I've had some kimchi that was spicy

Others not

[jagged forge]

spicy yes

[timid bronze]

YOU ADMITTEDDDD

SPICE IS AMAZING

[jagged forge]

but not that spicy in the grand scheme of things

[timid bronze]

SO YOU DON'T LIKE SEASONING!

[timid bronze]

I mean very spicy

[jagged forge]

???

[timid bronze]

😭

[jagged forge]

maybe U are the one that is weak to spice…

[timid bronze]

No I'm not lil jellyfish

[jagged forge]

who do you think has had more varieties of kimchi in their life…

[timid bronze]

I'm just saying I've had kimchi prepared differently

[timid bronze]

Doesn't mean you know how every kimchi recipe is made!

[jagged forge]

sounds like ur weak

[timid bronze]

Bro thinks I'm weak when he's never tried the kimchi I've tried 🥀

I've tried extremely spicy black bean noodles

I bet you'd cry while eating it

Too spicy for you

[jagged forge]

last time i checked black bean noodles aren’t kimchi

anyway

this is what i mean by weird about spice

[timid bronze]

I was highlighting my spice tolerance

Where did I say it's kimchi

[jagged forge]

now ur just being annoying about it

[timid bronze]

Read

[timid bronze]

YOU DO THE SAME SHIT

I do NOT want to hear it

[jagged forge]

literally because u did it first…

[timid bronze]

Doesn't mean you should do it as well

It makes you a hypocrite!

[jagged forge]

uh huh so you have the high ground here

[timid bronze]

But that's what happens to people who are scared of spice

[jagged forge]

i’m just throwing what u do back at u

[timid bronze]

They have nothing else to say

You eat BBQ sauce with sushi

I don't want to hear it jellyfish

I will out the profile picture Clau has made of you

[viral yew]

this is cursed

[timid bronze]

The one with cat ears

[jagged forge]

maybe linux will be the first platform where hdr doesn’t suck

[timid bronze]

Forreal

[viral yew]

if you provide evidence i can raise it to the council and it will be handled

[timid bronze]

He is so silly

Are there less narcissists in the field of maths

Academia has many self-absorbed people everywhere.

Does the field of mathematics have yappers too? Or is that impossible since you actually need to show the work

[plush plank]

[brave flare]

are you equating narcissicism with yapping?

there are many people who love to talk here but i dont think they are narcissists

[neat lintel]

yapping in order to belittle, control and dominate yes

[neat lintel]

i agree. passion ≠ narcissism

[gritty heath]

someone once told me there aren't many assholes in the world, but they are strategically placed to make life miserable

[neat lintel]

[terse comet]

@noble epoch

[round sparrow]

[left tusk]

guys permutations and combinations suck

[hexed tangle]

why so do you think that

[left tusk]

because its so confusing

[hexed tangle]

what exactly do you find confusing?

[cobalt grove]

I was wondering what’s the difference between active and emeritus, I don’t really understand the wording of the description (not native English btw) ?

[magic python]

Active is a temporary role whereas emeritus is a permanent role, so if you aren't active you just lose active but not emeritus

[round abyss]

think emeritus is all-time activity and active is just about frequency?

yeah

[cobalt grove]

Oh ok thx

[left tusk]

eren

[hexed tangle]

yeah my pfp is eren

[left tusk]

what was your major in princeton

[hexed tangle]

Math and CS

[left tusk]

you're so cool

should i major in maths too

[hexed tangle]

If you enjoy abstract reasoning and are comfortable with long stretches of uncertainty, then yes but it’s a long and demanding path

actually it depends on a lot of stuff

mainly you should not do something you are not interested in just cuz of peer pressure

or any other similar reason

[left tusk]

the opposite actually

afraid to admit i wanna major in maths

[hexed tangle]

why are you afraid

you just told me you're interested in doing that

[left tusk]

probably not great enough for majoring in maths

[hexed tangle]

you don't have to be great

i say follow your passion

[left tusk]

the careers for mathematics

what do you exactly do in ms pse

[hexed tangle]

People with math majors end up all over the place some stay in academia so prof. but many go into software data science finance engineering or tech in general

[hexed tangle]

software development

[left tusk]

hell yeah im going maths

[hexed tangle]

[placid shadow]

@keen garden I'm really sorry for how I reacted, I wasn't thinking critically and should've just pinged mods because you broke the rules. Instead I just kept throwing insults at you, and I'm sorry for that. I understand that you were trying to conform to the discussion by insulting others, but that is utterly unacceptable and just because someone does something it doesn't mean that you should too. Please forgive my immaturity.

In no circumstance were the words that I used in #math-discussion acceptable, I should've thought twice before saying what I said. I hope that we can move forwards from this as educated people, and I'm also really sorry to everyone else who witnessed the chat.

[timid bronze]

This is me as the start of spring semester gets closer @velvet dagger @solar hawk @jagged forge @sonic field @deep mango

[sonic field]

you might wannna get that checked out

[timid bronze]

Get what checked out

[true zinc]

me fr

[timid bronze]

I just am so bad at handling pressure like

I'm already scared about midterms and final exams

Even though I haven't attended a singular class yet

It's not that I don't want to attend. I do because I want an education

[solar hawk]

😭😭😭

[sonic field]

feels

[fresh comet]

that’s me a week into every semester

after I realize I bit off more than I could chew

[timid bronze]

Also when you realize you have a midterm 3rd week into the semester already

[timid bronze]

Ok bird

[fresh comet]

I do, sadly

[jagged forge]

real

[rigid geyser]

That sounds like a class that has more than two tests... Which is arguably less pressure

[timid bronze]

What

My physics class had 4 midterms and a final exam that counted as 3 midterms

Arguably I felt pressure all the time 💔

Since I also had to balance that with my other classes

[rigid geyser]

Having 1 midterm is worse imo

[timid bronze]

Interesting

[sonic field]

this argument right here. is the reason i stopped doing exams and started doing low stakes assessments.

[timid bronze]

Idk if I told you but I tried asking about exam splitting right

Unfortunately, they can't accommodate that (same with breaks)

My only option is to put on extra time

;-;

I feel like that doesn't help much because I'm going to still panic and lose control

What are your low stake assessments btw

What are they like

[sonic field]

admin makes it difficult to create but rn my "exams" are split into parts. you're given about 15-20 minutes depending on the quiz to complete + accommodations (I reserve an hour for the exams generally). you then have the choice to review what you missed with me in office hours. if you do, i'll give you problems similar to the ones you missed to try on your own, and if you do, you get 75% back of the points you missed and you can do this as many times as you like except for the final exam

this excludes things like projects and stuff that i also do

[timid bronze]

Ik this is math but can you be my physics professor 🥺 🥺

/j

But fr

[rigid geyser]

Time to switch majors

[sonic field]

i would enjoy teaching physics

[timid bronze]

He has a degree in physics

[timid bronze]

Have you ever taught physics

[sonic field]

not officially. only done seminars in the past

department said i could teach their labs though... which I probably should but lab is boring to me

[swift junco]

You are a godsend to your students

[timid bronze]

"Prof. Hurricane Panda, Logger Pro is not working. What do we do?"

[sonic field]

aw thanks! they seem to enjoy it at least, well feel a lot less stressed

[swift junco]

😭

[sonic field]

ok now these guys are horrifying haha

[silent junco]

hello discussion-2

[sonic field]

howdy

[timid bronze]

The left one looks like it has bad breath

[timid bronze]

Hi rays

[sonic field]

it probably do tbh...

[jagged forge]

steam recommended me a digimon game recently

digimon story time stranger

[sonic field]

you might like it

[latent edge]

Are you actually allowed to implement this?

[sonic field]

wym 👀

[latent edge]

Unis have policies on these things no?

[sonic field]

what policies

[latent edge]

Exam and assignment weights

In an ideal scenario my prof told me she would make a 80% assignment 20% final exam but that's not allowed

[sonic field]

yes i can do this

[latent edge]

Hell yeah

[sonic field]

to answer your question more fully

[latent edge]

I'd do this too. Give more weights to assignments. The assignments are going to be hard on purpose so they can visit me in my office hours

[sonic field]

things should be comparable to other institutions up to academic freedom. but academic freedom allows for a plethora of things. plus low stakes assessments is something that's been researched for more than decades. in fact we had conferences from special speakers at other institutions (so like seminars jus with pedagogy) on the implementation of this.

most of the time, the department can choose how they want to handle the variation of these implements which usually comes down from admin, but we've never locked into something that takes away our academic freedom. this is a no no and we would probably end up leaving and that would look very bad on the school

[latent edge]

One of the profs made a course that had 0 exams 0 assignments

100% seminars

Like 4 years ago or something

For algebraic topology

[sonic field]

yeh i was just discussing something similar to this with a colleague a few days ago

for a while, i haven't had exams in my DE course only a final. been doing th ebest they've been doing

but they have been doing projects and stuff

[hexed tangle]

Huh

[latent edge]

One prof has 40% assignment and the rest is exams

The assignments are really hard

The exams are stupid easy except for one or two questions

And he also includes a difficult bonus

That's the best thing I had so far

[sonic field]

that's kinda how i like to do it

with the projects i can make them as tough as i want lol

[rigid geyser]

I think it would be up to the uni if they want to have a standardized policy on weights. Mine definitely didn't cuz final ranged anywhere from like 20% to 70% of the grade

With 70% being the "I don't feel like grading anything except two exams" spectrum

[latent edge]

For cs courses a lot of them had the dice roll game. You either fail with 0% or pass with 100%

I had this implemented for computer architecture and kernel engineering

it was a very stressful semester lmao but I won the dice roll twice

[rigid geyser]

What was the singular dice roll grade actually for

[latent edge]

It was the final exam

It was either the hardest thing ever

Or the easiest thing ever

[rigid geyser]

Oh

Or discrete math where it's simultaneously both somehow

[latent edge]

It was also open book open source

We had a guy who submitted a gpt generated picture for his final

Beautiful

[rigid geyser]

Open book for me usually meant you know this is going to be hard as fuck

[latent edge]

Oh yes it's super hard

[sonic field]

oh now for most of our classes, not all of them, in our dept we're not allowed to do that. our final is generally departmental because we collect the data on certain problems (I personally feel this is outdated but w/e) and compare it to other sister colleges

[rigid geyser]

Oh so you can't even write your own exam?

[sonic field]

not the final, no. but there's some courses where there's an exception

most of our gatekeeper courses have to be uniform with other colleges due to transfer and allt hat

[latent edge]

gatekeepr course?

Like analysis?

[sonic field]

oh no not those, gatekeeper as in main college that stops a student from entering into their core courses for their degree

[rigid geyser]

It makes me think about how we are required to ask interview questions from a small list that are all listed on a GitHub repo anyone can find by googling "xxxx company interview questions" and we apparently don't think that's an issue

[latent edge]

Oh that would be logic

Awful class

For cs at least

For math it's just intro to proofs and 3 linear algebra courses

@jagged forge @deep mango Guess who is trying jjigae today

[snow ice]

you?

was my guess right?

[quasi jetty]

[jagged forge]

let’s gooo

what kind

[ebon pier]

What is the small number at the bottom right of a number or a small letter at the bottom of alter eg x ₅ or x ₙ

[clever harbor]

a subscript

what it means depends on context, usually an index

[ebon pier]

Sorry my English is bad idk what that means

[clever harbor]

a "subscript" is the small number at the bottom right of a number or a small letter at the bottom of alter eg x ₅ or x ₙ

[deep mango]

OMG SO GOOD

I LOVE IT

[lost fiber]

x1, x2, x3… can all be completely different variables reusing the letter x if you need more symbols than the alphabet can give you.

Or, M01 could mean a certain element inside a matrix M (at the position 0,1) as a completely different usage example.

[ocean robin]

i'm so jealous omg

[sleek sonnet]

is writing down math notes good?

[timid bronze]

I've never tried but heard its rly good

[timid bronze]

It is!!

[snow ice]

sadly, the closest restaurant that serves it is 2 hours 30 minutes away. but maybe i'll make it homemade, I'm DECENT at cooking.

[timid bronze]

2 hour drives suck fr

What's the most complicated dish you made

[snow ice]

my precious perfect italian pizza.

stole some of my parents ingredients to make 🙂

[timid bronze]

So true though

[jagged forge]

firm tofu is better

[deep mango]

No.

[jagged forge]

yes :^)

[vast wraith]

im with ryc on this one…

[jagged forge]

well ur wrong

[vast wraith]

i understand why you think that (ryc tends to be wrong)

[wet mortar]

hairy tofu is the best

[jagged forge]

oh, ive seen that before

[deep mango]

Both firm and soft are excellent. But ill always prefer soft

[wet mortar]

interesting

[jagged forge]

i like my tofu to have substance yk

[willow herald]

Is that expired tofu?

[ruby kindle]

Furry tofu

[timid bronze]

@sonic field

Have you tried those beep audios that supposedly stops overthinking

I'm experimenting it with it rn and idk why but it fucking works

It would definitely give me a headache after a while but, it's lowkey working atm 😭

Never in my life have I not overcomplicated a simple 2+2 in my head..

This better be useful during exam study

[turbid sedge]

4

[timid bronze]

Yeah, no kidding (what I said was an exaggeration lol) but because of my disability coupled with my test anxiety I sometimes make stupid mistakes with simple arithmetic

[turbid sedge]

Easiest advice whenever you have the slightest bit of overthinking inside your head just let go all your thoughts and sit like a stupid monkey for 2 minutes atleast. Then think over again

[timid bronze]

Very helpful

Thx

[turbid sedge]

I hope you're not being sarcastic

You're welcome anyways

[iron marsh]

Fellers, I just saw this. Is it more AI overhype nonsense slop or actually spooky?

https://x.com/AISafetyMemes/status/2010342603246670014?s=20

I'm not really a math person so I can't tell

https://x.com/neelsomani/status/2010215162146607128

[turbid sedge]

I dont think terry would accept proof by LLM

[iron marsh]

https://www.erdosproblems.com/forum/thread/397

[zealous bronze]

i wouldn't say its "slop", but its not that impressive either. some guy took a MO post with some work related to the problem and asked GPT to generalize it, which it was able to do.

the other account on twitter saying this is a sign of the ai singularity is delusional overhype though

[iron marsh]

How is chatGPT being able to generalize it not impressive? Isn't generalizing stuff often very difficult?

[zealous bronze]

it is not impressive relative to what we already know ai is capable of

[iron marsh]

fair enough ig, I am a layperson in both this sort of math and AI and it's hard to tell if this is "it's joever" territory or it's more overhype

[lunar ruin]

It's a pretty good showcase of how good real world applications of AI can be.

[zealous bronze]

for this particular problem not really

[mint patio]

Is there any intuition for why L'Hopital's Rule only works on indeterminate forms?

[deep mango]

Think about taylor expanding the function

if you have f(x) and g(x)

[sonic field]

💀

[deep mango]

f(x) = f(x0) + f'(x0)(x - x0) + ...
g(x) = g(x0) + g'(x0)(x - x0) + ...

Then divide these

As x goes to x0, if f(x0) and g(x0) are not both 0, the limit is just given by these guys. (either it exists, or f(x0) is not 0 and the bottom goes to 0)

There's one case in which these guys dont matter: when they're both 0

Then they go away and f'(x0) and g'(x0) are what matter

(cancelling an (x - x0))

[shell ivy]

Hey guys

I was thinking about Hilberts hotel.

Isn't it funny that the ability to change rooms depends on infinity?

[silent junco]

i dont understand the question, sorry

[shell ivy]

Like in a hotel with only like 6 rooms nobody can change rooms such that everyone has a room for themselves

This is only possible in a hotel with infinitely many rooms.

[silent junco]

yeah true

[shell ivy]

It wasn't a question I guess

But I thought it's funny

[silent junco]

this is whats known as the dedekind definition of infinity: a set is infinite if and only if it contains a proper subset with the same cardinality

[shell ivy]

I like your pfp

[silent junco]

ty

[shell ivy]

oh I don't understand that yet, need to learn

ty

[silent junco]

its a lot of jargon to express the same idea you said

Why do u wanna know

[ebon pier]

When I use iPad is there a way ti write math symbols like delta without googling the symbols?

[ocean harbor]

go with latex

if ur unsure maybe try using simple apps like onenote

[ebon pier]

What’s that supposed to mean

Latex?

My English is bad I’m sorry

[ocean harbor]

latex is a typesetting language

https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/Learn_LaTeX_in_30_minutes

Typesetting? 😭

first time getting a bad lecture experience with my stupid classmates

[turbid sedge]

ayay

[turbid sedge]

oh tell me more ab it

[ocean harbor]

ok so we’re still learning electromagnetism, and today we started talking about derivatives in mathematical expressions. the prof introduced Faraday’s law with,
$$
\mathcal{E} = -\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt}
$$
and a lot of people were confused, so there were a ton of questions. when he asked about it, I mentioned that I already taken calculus before and was basically the only one who felt comfortable with it. everyone else was like, ``bro, what is this?''

[fathom swallow]

# first lvl 27 mas on pjsk

[turbid sedge]

WHAT

[ocean harbor]

here is a thing, I know there’s a lot more coming up soon with integrals, and he decided not to go too deep into it today

[turbid sedge]

thats crazy

[ocean harbor]

it’s kinda funny how people rely on ai now and think they’re good at this

[turbid sedge]

yeah theres this thing called maxwell's equations later on which is generally based on calc IV

[turbid sedge]

Ai pmo vro

midi is for uncs tho

[timid bronze]

Yeah

[jagged forge]

what do the kiddos use

[noble tinsel]

oh well for music idk but for normal sound on a computer we have enough processing power to store and play mp3s and wavs

i just relate midi to the 90s era

@torpid bay Also, that inverse transform we made a while back. When it's applied to points transformed by matrices. It works weird and is an almost inverse, but it's off by a scale and constant factor. I'm supprise it almost works at all. I think it would work with just matrices transforming eachother pretty well.

[hexed tangle]

interesting

[foggy meadow]

Well the function should work across any field almost. There's stipulations, but it's like all of calc and inverses give or take. I'm not sure what to do with it more than just go "neat." I'm still trying to get it to do fractional calc, which isn't working out too well sadly.

My other friend was interested in it then wasn't, but he still encouraged me about it. 🤷‍♂️
