I’m glad you like it. I am leaving this website because the users are hateful and in many cases stupid.

Bye.

“I didn’t think there was anything objectionable enough to have it flagged”

Even if there was you deserve a reason as to why, or at least some consideration as to your effort. How would you possibly be expected to correct your mistake if you aren’t told what it is?!

Officer: I am giving you a fine. Citizen: Oh… for what? Officer: That’s a secret, bye

How is that a good system?

I’m glad they’re interested in math but I hope they get better teachers because they haven’t done any proof at all… strange they would put this forward for submission and concerning how little the general public seems to comprehend mathematics or proofs. They read the headline, don’t understand the article, say “wow! Math!” And then send to their friends.

Let’s take a look at their “proof”:, and first let’s make a note.

Making a proof of the Pythagorean Theorem is like making a proof of “Pi”, you are not demonstrating the proprieties of pi (that it relates to the radian of a circle, etc.) but rather showing why pi is the number it is, the why of the number, so to speak.

With the Pythagorean theorem, to make a proof of it would be to show why a^2 + b^2 = c^2, and not simply demonstrate that these properties have other mechanisms that they display.

Did they do that? No.

They demonstrated some of the properties that the theorem has without getting anywhere close to a “proof”, and it seems that their teachers simply have no idea what a proof is.

This is the Louisiana education system in the USA, a state which is rather notorious for having sub-par education.

I really feel this is a case of dumb people reporting on other dumb people’s ideas.

I’ve bombed every single one because they don’t let me use a notebook with all of my notes, Google/search engine and additionally bring in my other friends who we mutually discuss and solve problems with as a group.

Consequently, you don’t get the kind of employees who are good at solving the problem, rather they are good at social chit-chat and taking your asinine…

Truly, truly asinine… “Test”

Let’s say someone buys an iPhone and 4 lattes per week: each latte costs about $4, and a new iPhone is $25 per month on a payment plan. Let’s do the math now. $16(x)4=$64, and that’s your total latte spend per month. Add on the iPhone and it’s at $79, but let’s round up to $80 $80(x)12 months = $960

Wow those fools spending their $960 which if they saved they would be able to put 20% down on a $400,000 home in only…

80 YEARS OF SAVING

Yeah I think the latte and iPhone is more pleasure then saving until death for nothing at all. Do the math next time.

It’s a perception problem, as are most things on the edge of mathematics and computing. Displays are built to be visible to human eyes, data is structured to be perceivable to our minds… often we never see the “math” a program does to produce the GUI or output we interact with.

Do you see what I mean?
