  That happened in Permutation City. The simulation could stop intermittently or go extremely slow and no one inside could notice.

  In the case of dx as an infinitesimal it makes sense. You are making a sum of all the values of the function in the integral range and multiplying with a constant dx.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UwU brat mathematician behavior⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If you were using nonstandard analysis with dx an infinitesimal you could put it outside I guess. Maybe with differential forms too?

  The vocabulary is part of the knowledge. The concept goes with the word, that’s how human brains understand stuff mostly.

  You can click on the terms you don’t know to learn about them.

  Because most of them have a core of metal or other high density material and a softer exterior. It’s like wrapping a brick in a couple of layers of bubble wrap and hitting someone if the face with it.

  People should try that, for science. In Minecraft.

  Any journalist trying to pass a fake video as news should be called to a civil or criminal court, same as medical malpractices

  I’m European. I don’t eat soft bread. I think none of you have a sharp knife.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I never understood why people use serrated knives for bread, it gets crumbs everywhere. I use a sharp chef knife instead and it’s much cleaner. I use it for 95% of stuff, there’s no much need for any other.

  You can install CalyxOS or other custom ROM

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fuck geometry⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You can make something like this properly by defining a different metric. For example with metric dl^2^ = dx^2^ - dy^2^ the vector (1, 1) has length 0, so you can make a “triangle” with sides of lengths 1, -1 and 0.

  There is no guarantee a broken game will be ever fixed. See KSP 2.
