 to divide by 1? What about dividing by 0? Curious to see what you think

 This would normally just be a weird way to divide except it allows you to
 divide by zero, which is kinda cool.

 @user-211 I agree! The problem is the limit as x->0 from the left and right
 trend toward different infinities, meaning it's neither -infinity nor
 +infinity. Which makes me think that it's the value that's exactly in the
 middle, AKA zero.
 
 Why wouldn't 1/0 be zero? Division is just inverse-multiplication, and
 multiplying anything by zero is zero. Why wouldn't division use the same
 rules? I don't understaaaaaand T.T

 sometimes I think about how much more productive I'd be if I had a code editor
 that let me draw arrows and smiley faces and such alongside the code. Or if I
 could position things strangely, like two functions side-by-side with boxes
 drawn around them. Or diagrams or flowcharts or graphs or...
 
 something that would output to raw txt format, but would present itself as an
 image that could be edited.

 I disagree. What if we did not learn to count numerically, but instead viewed
 all values as percentages between 0 and 1? Essentially, as a magnitude between
 empty and full.
 
 That would radically redefine our mathematics, and it's just one simple
 change, one tweak, and suddenly negative numbers are just out of reach.

 The trick is to phrase your "divine insight" into a question. Like "don't you
 think that perhaps this strange intuition you're feeling might have something
 to do with the subconscious pattern matching capability humans developed over
 long years of differentiating tree-branches and snakes or uneven terrain and
 solid footing?"
 
 then if someone says "what the heck no I never thought that because I don't
 know anything about humans"
 
 then you say "oh well that's surprising, perhaps you should look into it"
 
 and then they come back later and say "how exactly did you know that
 information? It's not public knowledge"

 conservatives think gender is assigning yourself to a particular social role
 
 liberals think gender is sort of an aesthetic and way of presenting yourself

 things besides.
