We’re trying, okay? It’s not our fault they have all their preferences set to DNI.

Different premise, similar outcome, it’s fairly close to The High Crusade by Poul Anderson. Aliens invade medieval England and get shanked, ultimately leading to the British empire spanning the galaxy.

It’s always fascinating how these models can merge complex concepts in specific and congruent ways, and then reliably misalign the roof and seats in public transit.

She could somehow be the queen of Antifa, and if you’re only learning that now, it cannot be why you shot her in the face.

“Subscribed” works, but “Local” and “All” are thoroughly fucked. Even oldsh.itjust.works shows “unable to retrieve site” as soon as you show up.

There’s a lot of hydrogen.

There’s no sense in which it does refer to the result you mean.
“a X b is written ab.” Modern Algebra: Structure And Method, page 36.
Go ahead and try it out and let me know how you go.

Oh yeah, had a laugh at some RPN guy saying, ‘Hey you should check this thesis specifically about order of operations.’
This dipshit: “I already know what it’ll be - a University person who’s forgotten about Terms and The Distributive Law - they’re ALL like that.”
All of them! Wow! What a coincidence!
Isn’t it fucking crazy how everyone in the world is wrong about this, and math still works?
- Comment on I dunno 3 weeks ago:
Because of one troll harassing people to insist 2(8)^2^ is 256 and RPN has invisible brackets.
- Comment on I dunno 3 weeks ago:
If you’ve written a(b)², then you mean (a×b)²
When shown a textbook that explicitly distinguishes 6(ab)^3^ meaning 6(ab)(ab)(ab) and (6ab)^3^ meaning (6ab)(6ab)(6ab), they accidentally got it right whilst sneering and inventing their sPeCiAl cAsE:
6a²b²=6(ab)²
They can’t even keep their horseshit straight when their inane pivots to division are directly addressed. Every response begins “nuh uh!” and backfills whatever needs to be true for you to be wrong and them to be smarterer.
They’re just full of shit.
- Comment on I dunno 3 weeks ago:
Fuck where this started - you’re here now, saying 2(8)^2^ is anything but 128. You’re that wrong about basic fucking algebra, whilst sneering at everyone else.
Here’s four textbooks across two centuries where a(b+c)^x^ is not (ac+bc)^x^.
- Comment on I dunno 3 weeks ago:
So when you sneer that rules and notation are different, you don’t know what those words mean.
Or you’re so devoid of internality that when someone says ‘imagine a different notation,’ you literally can’t.
There’s no pretending, It’s there in the textbooks
Show me any textbook that gets the answers you insist on. Show me one textbook where a(b+c)^2^ squares a.
- Comment on I dunno 3 weeks ago:
No you can’t!
Yes we could, because it’s a theoretical different notation. Mathematics itself does not break down, if you have to put add explicit brackets to 1/(ab).
Mathematics does break down when you insist a(b)^2^ gets an a^2^ term, for certain values of b. It’s why you’ve had to invent exceptions to your made-up rules, and pretend 2(8)^2^ gets different answers when simplified from 2(5+3)^2^ versus 2(8*1)^2^.
- Comment on I dunno 3 weeks ago:
‘If a+b equals b+a, why is 1/a+b different from 1/b+a?’
ab means a*b.
- Comment on I dunno 3 weeks ago:
says person who can’t back up anything they say about Terms with textbook references
“a X b is written ab and means a times b.”
Rub rub rub.
- Comment on I dunno 3 weeks ago:
You sneered about 1/ab five minutes ago.
Troll.
- Comment on I dunno 3 weeks ago:
That’s convention for notation, not a distinction between a*b and ab both being the product of a and b. ab means a*b.
- Comment on I dunno 3 weeks ago:
You can’t keep your own horseshit straight.
