@mushroom_soup @ceo_of_monoeye_dating @sjw @InceptionState @PunishedD cause CPUs dont work like that natively. They can do general algebra with the right software but its very complicated and slow. That software is also very expensive generally. Not particularly hype for current thing??❤️?? likes this. -

@InceptionState @ceo_of_monoeye_dating @PunishedD @sjw why cant it just make every number have a common denominator and then do it that way like they teach us in like 4th grade instead of jmaking them all decimal points -

@ceo_of_monoeye_dating @PunishedD @sjw "Floating-point error mitigation is the minimization of errors caused by the fact that real numbers cannot, in general, be accurately represented in a fixed space. By definition, floating-point error cannot be eliminated, and, at best, can only be managed." WHAT DOES THIS EVEN MEAN
WHY CANT NUMBERS BE REPRESENTED IN SPACE -

@mushroom_soup @ceo_of_monoeye_dating @PunishedD @sjw Take Pi for example. Pi is irrational, and we "discover" more digits by doing more and more precise approximations. Theoretically, it's impossible to store the number Pi on a computer because it has infinite digits. Therefore, at some point you have to round it, introducing error. That is the floating-point error problem in a nutshell. And that is why you will see this issue in many programming languages where it thinks eg. 7/3 - 4/3 - 1 = 0.000....01 -

@PunishedD @sjw @mushroom_soup I said it above - it's a well known floating point arithmetic error, and this type of thing pops up more often than you'd think. -

@mushroom_soup @sjw It's a standard floating point arithmetic error. This expression when solved using a "dumb" floating point arithmetic calculator will always return machine epsilon. -

@mushroom_soup @InceptionState @PunishedD @RustyCrab @ceo_of_monoeye_dating @sjw Computers are finite limited machines and they throw enough decimal places in by default that are good enough for most people and if you really need more and you know you need more for a certain extreme scientific high precision application you can throw more bits at the problem or resort to sorts of internal algebraic representations and massage your code in a certain way that's awareness of the limitations so it's less likely to break. The crazy mathematicians we talk about don't even consider or worry about the shit computer engineers do and consider themselves the gigachads of the STEM world and don't concern themselves with how their abstract platonic bullshit would be implemented or represented in a real machine. -

@YTFoidLover1488 @sjw @InceptionState @PunishedD @mushroom_soup @RustyCrab >2+2=4
This is OK
>2+2 != 5
This is not.
There are situations where 2+2=5. They are the situations where 5=4, which happens in (for example) the real numbers modulo 1.
The argument should not have gone past that. -
