Proof of ignorance

in user Cwarn23 we can see:
he doesn't read links (given)
he doesn't know proper higher maths (obvious)
he ignores all valid points (drawn from answers)...

Thats what maths is.....

Sheesh, you dont quite get a major point. To PROVE something in mathematics, which has been done in the case of pi being irational, required rigor.

It requires that you prove it beyond any doubt...

Im just wondering what the point of the "Tweet" thread is....

whats with the whole tweet thing?

yep im with firstPerson, its a lost cause.

stop talking about atoms, it has nothing to do with the maths you are talking about.

Thanks will..
Maths, never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, deals with atoms when dealing with pi, or circles. Maths goes smaller than atom, as small as anything you ever want.
...

This is maths, you dont talk about atoms, thats in science. You are trying to mix the two where they should not be mixed. No matter how darn small a circle is it never made up by a countable number...

Thankyou! Thats what i have been trying to say.

No it isnt, not at all. To calculate pi precisely using an actual model you would need an amazingly accurate circle.

Its obvious your not understanding what i am talking about so its rather...

But maths isnt digital.. Thats the magic of it, its not bound by the laws of nature.

And if you call something of 10 atoms of diameter a circle, you would have mathematicians up in arms because...

Uh, sorry to burst your bubble. But a circumference is not the measure of atoms in the circle. Its the measure of distance, so therefore you have to measure the difference between 2 pixels, a...

I don't even know if i would trust Ms Paint to measure something to the nearest cm let alone to decimal places. :S

Today is my 16th birthday, so i had a question for everyone. How do you celebrate your birthday?
Do you get together with friends?
Go somewhere special?
Personally i spend it with family :)

A senior member is just one who has stayed here a long time.. i have been here for about a year and a half and im only starting to think of myself as a regular. Me a senior member? Not yet :P

ps....

Yeah i still like python even though it has no brackets and curly braces. But there really is something nice about languages like C/C++ and Java with their very explicit syntax.

Yeah same, and i think that the problem should be the same throughout all programming languages. That way you can compare how other languages do it.

Also, it would be fun if you could nominate...

So.. what?

Um, i'm going skiing in utah, going to see the golden gate bridge, the grand canyon, the national parks. So yeah, im excited. And not likely to get fat :P thats not me, im a gymnast so i dont usually...

Well, i know my christmas present this year because i had to help plan it. Im coming to the US! :)

Yeah, it kinda feels like gmail's replacement in some ways.

Hi guys,
I have 5 google wave invitations left, and just wondered if anyone wanted to have a look at the preview.
If so, pop on a reply. :)

Cheers

Have you thought about this? It would take thousands of years to slow any planet's rotation down.. See, planets are really really big, newton tells us that really really big things do not like to...

Well, i am very happy with them. Whenever i needed help they were always there and the phone wasnt annoying... unlike my ISP (Telstra) but yeah, i cant say much against them.

My computer at the...

Okay... we are missing a major point here. Mars is way too far away. When we discovered water on mars, it was the remains of ice lakes. Mars is cold, very cold. If we went to mars, the new problem...

No i don't. That sounds like someone who has given up. The government is run for the people and by the people. So, if people are serious about climate change (serious enough to want to move the...

hughv -> Waa waa waa.. They don't agree with me.

Get over it, really, if you want ideas, accept them, discuss them, never just completely discount them. Thats why its called a Discussion Forum.
...

Never heard of onecare... See when i was that age i wasnt quite as computer literate as i liked to think i was.. Still not bad for a 12 year old. But yeah, i can't say i remember things like that :P

Im going sailing on my boat, i used to live on it for a number of years sailing up and down Queensland and NSW. So we are going back out on that these holidays... and i have a massive programming job...

How did it really start?
Well the Big Bang Theory (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Big_Bang_Theory) was premiered in September 24th 2007 :P

Obviously thats the more important one :)

I know! Im there too, i feel quite privileged :)

Yeah i must admit i have noticed that number always seems to look a little low recently

A while ago i was like " I think there is some virus software brought out by Microsoft this time" and people were like nah, but i was right! :P

Ha ha! I knew it. So i wasnt wrong all those posts ago :)

Hooray for aussies! :) Yeah the whole josh thing happened at about 6 o'clock (am) for me

I though Ezzaral was online.. I didn't know abut niek_e though :P

Oh, Woops :P then congrats admins.. Whoever did it did it really quickly

That was amazing, in 20 minutes you managed to ban Josh4. Im quite impressed at the speed you work at. And the forums are all clean again. So you really will only have noticed him if you were on here...
