Can someone explain the formula? Is it real? What does it do?
I miss PugJesus :( he would usually explain these things
Ramanujan’s pi formula.
Similar formulas were used to calculate digits of pi very fast etc.
I see. It makes so much sense now.
Thank you
I have solved a programming design problem in my sleep few times. Nowhere near PhD level problems tho.
I’m still trying to figure out how it can be simultaneously nighttime and daytime in my dreams so mazel tov, you’re in the AP classes here
(I think my brain doesn’t render rayleigh scattering)
I’m 100% not joking, I once was stuck the the proof of a theorem for a whole week going at it and still wasn’t able to prove it… until I dreamed of the solution, woke up at like 3 am, quickly wrote a skecth of my dream’s proof and went back to sleep. The following morning I checked that path and boom, there it finally was the solution.
Weirdly enough, this happened twice, although that second time I didn’t woke up at 3 am, just in the following morning as usual.
I read somewhere that Mick Jagger (or maybe it was Keith Richard) wrote the riff of Satisfaction in his sleep.
He woke up, grabbed a tape recorder and went “Bum bum. Bumbumbuummm bumbumbum.” And sang the one line “I, can’t, get noo, sat-tis-fac-tion.” And then went back to sleep.
Forgot about it the next morning till they were at band practice and someone found the tape and played it.
I too have written down riffs from my dreams. Also I am not a famous rock star.
Draw your own conclusions.
I’m struggling to determine what conclusion I’m supposed to draw
Satisfaction was a hit because Jagger has skill, not because he dreamt it.
I don’t dream like ever. Probably linked to my aphantasia.
A radical solution

This and you really want a pineapple but she laughs at you and won’t give you one and you start to get really anxious
Or you take one and bite into it, but the pineapples are actually her children. So you now have this bloody pineapple and the pineapple woman screaming at you in despair, and you regret your awful actions.
That’s why a villain that manipulate people’s dreams wouldn’t work, he would go in therapy after the 3rd dream he see
Wait a minute, are you telling me you can dream about literal scantily clad women without a single summation, integral, or root?
And here’s the kicker, no one judges you!
I dreamed my root was integral in her summation.
I suspect they are in the pineapples, but she won’t give me one.
Absolute bitch.
… what’s the point then?
It’s the cute little dot you put in between the numbers to separate the units from the decimal places
Fucking needs and their nearly naked women. Amiright?
Oh there’s a root in there don’t you worry
If only…
Um, actually… I think the square root operation takes precedence over the division.
Psst that’s the joke, that the math does not work out in the second one :)
That’s the joke they’re making about the joke being made
Eh, bad math aside they’re left with √=√ which is true.
And true = 1 hence √ = 1, I’m glad we figured this out!!

Bad title
Did you mean: Ramanujan?
The requested page title contains unsupported characters: “%E2”.Oddly, when I search for it myself, I get the same URL:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramanujan–Sato_series
Either Lemmy is messing it up, or the Thunder app is. If I copy and paste the URL, ir works. So maybe Thunder is doing something to the URL when I tap it?
Thunder is encoding the percent-signs, that are used for the original encoding of the dash. Which of course bungles the url.
Presumably it allows Thunder to open URLs with raw Unicode characters in them. But ironically, I’ve just tried to insert the same address here with the dash preserved, and Thunder converted it to percent-encoding when posting (or Lemmy did, but I doubt that).
Works on Voyager
Brilliant, world-changing ideas I have while I’m stoned lol
