I have no exact prompt to share, but he does write:
> Appreciate the insight! If it's at all of interest, this was a one-shot (supposed) solution in about 80 mins, unlike some other problems like 851 that took over 20 continuations totalling perhaps 15-20 hours of reasoning time.

Please add an option to adjust the thickness of colored lines. Right now it's more of an eyesight test for me.
Such an informative, well meaning comment
I might have missed it but how much did this cost in total?
Possibly. I'm not sure what you would do with it in the summer though. Even Arctic and Antarctica have pretty big seasonal temperature variations.
Don't RTGs generate power constantly? That would make them impossible to use for a casual customer.
Ok nvm I can't resist wasting my time and typing stuff on the internet again, probably gonna regret it later.
How is it not obvious to the dullest of the dull that this visual proof is not supposed to work for goddamn commutative rings lmao
It's probably not even supposed to work for negative reals, 0 or the case b>a. It's supposed to demonstrate the central idea of the visual proof. Also yes, by choosing suitable ways to interpret the lengths shown in the diagrams it's absolutely possible to extend the proof to all reals but I'm not convinced it's meant to be interpreted like that.
But bringing commutative rings into this... man you're funny
And how exactly did you come to the conclusion that this is relevant here?
I know barely anything about welding, could you explain what a good weld would look like?
> One man, watching me while I cut 8-foot lengths of tubing for him, told me that I could simply hook my tape measure over the saw blade and subtract ⅛-inch to find the correct length. Piqued after I explained why his method wouldn’t work for a precise measurement, he responded by quizzing me on something I wasn’t likely to know: the purpose of the black diamonds on my tape measure.
Perhaps I'm picturing the situation wrong, but why wouldn't it work on the precision levels of a tape measure?
How did it work out for you in the end?
You can only do it for certain formats

Your comment is also much much ruder than the one you're replying to.
Yeah that would be helpful as I can't find it at all. Both lowercarbon and xandrius have 0 posts and comments for me.
This comment can't be real
Pretty sure it's the first one. New systems are inherently more complex which means more possibilities to screw things up.
Soooo what was the problem with your internet?
Could anyone please explain what stroke expansion actually is either on high school or math undergrad level?
That's not how I understood it. From the article:
> "The mulla-mullung would then chant the name of the sick person, and once the stick fell, the charm was complete,"
Which to me seems like a healing ritual.
Well how is it constructed?
We are not doubting his reasons. We were interested in why.
I guess I had a bit of a harsh reaction yeah, sorry about that. I came back here and found the site down. It seems to be back up now though and you're right that it doesn't really matter anyway.
I still do think that at least some people would prefer even their silly site not being spammed with scripted requests.
Stop scripting this yall. The site is having enough trouble as is. I thought we were more mature than reddit.

So exp? e to the power of x?
