    FWIW I heard the show was extremely bad, and I had to see for myself.

    It is very, very bad.

        One of the worst parts of it is that Scooby Doo has had tons of successful series and they’ve all been pretty good. Yet they somehow managed to fuck this up despite it being an incredibly simple formula for a show.

      it was designed as ragebait. but it failed even at that.

    A negative boy was unsure about a radical party.

    The boy was a square, so he missed out on four awesome chicks.

    And the whole thing was over by 2am…

      This is beautiful, as a mathematics major it brought me to tears. I’ll be reading this at my wedding

      Same here, but I’ll suck it up and make one if I halve two.

    Coming from someone that memorized it in high school and hasn’t used it since, I am enraged.

    Such an strange error. I’m not saying it’s AI but here’s my prompt:

    Generate a picture of someone thinking and, to symbolize their thought process, show math symbols and equations around their head, these symbols have to include the quadratic formula

    Here’s the pic:

      I suspect it’s an OCR error.

        I’m guessing a typesetter was too lazy to add a different-size font and although they knew how to type “√”, didn’t realize “²” is in Unicode too. They added a horizontal line as separate graphics to extend the square root symbol but only realized too late the whole thing is in a fraction: maybe someone reminded them and they misinterpreted the advice, or just decided not to split the text box to put the nominator higher.

        That makes about a million times more sense

    Did they use AI to generate that?

    … Why not just copy the meme they’re referencing? It’s like they’re intentionally trying to screw this up.

    Wrong formula aside, what is the meaning of dividing an entire equation? (x = b) / a

      quotient equivalence under an equivalence class “a” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotient_type

    You know, I remember the formula, but I don’t remember what a, b, and c are

    • LaLuzDelSol@lemmy.world ⁨8⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      They’re the coefficients of a quadratic equation! Y = ax^2 + bx + c

      source
      • WolfLink@sh.itjust.works ⁨8⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        0 = ax^2 + bx + c

      They are all superfluous if you know how to do quadratic expansion.

      source
      • ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org ⁨5⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Do you have a truly universal method for quadratic expansion that is easier to remember and compute than the formula? Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy quadratic expansion and always give it a few shots before resorting to the formula.

    Animation software didn’t have super script, so now power ofs.

    I mean maybe it’s just some other formula

        It makes to term into a boolean ☝️🤓

        I was trying to think what the funniest part was. I think it’s the b2 - like just take your b2 vitamins bro, it’s worth like squared a regular b.

        Well I didn’t spot that

      Are both sides being divided by 2a?

      source
      • stray@pawb.social ⁨4⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        You start by dividing both sides by 2a, and then you can multiply both sides by 2a to get rid of the 2a’s from both sides. Doing this will give you a sense of accomplishment whenever you don’t know how to proceed.

        Those are questions that mere mortals would ask. Be better: just “vibe solve” it. :-P
