 @user-211 math such as SUM(as x approaches infinity)(i*x)
 
 this would add i, 2i, 3i, 4i, 5i, 6i, etc off into infinity. would that give
 you complex infinity? a direction orthogonal to the X axis, yet infinitely far
 in the direction of y. it'd probably have a positive and negative side too,
 just saying.

 so... if infinity is the inverse of zero, then when inverted would infinity
 also be zero?
 
 if so, it follows that the [spectrum/dimension/cardinality/direction] that the
 inversion is occurring upon might also have other steps inbetween. Unless it's
 a binary thing, like "top and bottom" or "present and absent".
 
 I wonder what those steps might look like? Clearly, since infinity minus
 infinity does not equal zero, the steps inbetween (if they exist) would not be
 numbers. If they were, then one single step from inverting infinity would be
 1, but I don't believe that would be true.
 
 On the topic of rings, the axioms would be things like "a ring is a ring if
 you can trace a continuous line with a length of infinity across it's
 ring-like-surface"? I wonder what the inverse of a length is... Or perhaps you
 cannot invert a length, as to do so would give you a length of zero (in this
 particular ring-like-case)

 @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

 be careful, recursion can cause stack overflows.
 
 better to run function pointers from a loop. That way you can operate as long
 as necessary. Just make sure you don't get in an infinite loop...

 Don’t be fooled. Casting doubt about rigorous peer reviewed science
 doesn’t mean you are just “asking questions,” it means you are a
 conspiracy theorist.
 
 or it means you're so remarkably ignorant that you shouldn't even be in the
 room where people are talking about this.
 
 Unless your questions are very basic. "can someone explain to me what XYZ term
 means?" or "how long has this particular application method been in common
 use?" that kind of thing. Even still, either do some basic research or
 relinquish your decision making power until you understand.

 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.

12. the text continues from the previous page and reads "if it's been ten or more years since they moved in, the site gets rebuilt. [wait, hang on, weren't we talking about html websites? when did houses come into the discussion?]  ... wait, what was I saying? Oh yeah the text is on a gray background, as interrupting as a scythe, with a yellow backdrop as if to represent sheer white-hot flame except not white the color of all colors but fire the color of all flames. the text reads "prince of the nehalim" in bright pinking blue, as in something completely foreign and unknown to you, and continues on to read in red "so many opportunities" as if life hadn't absconded, but instead of severed instead. "parabolas persist" in the flavor of blue, the color of space in a non-light polluted view.  "live life like you're merry, as do but a few."  do you want to make people feel better? or do you just want to make them confused? Neither, really, I'm trying to tell the truth. I'm seriously just struggling to find a way to express things that others clearly seem to be forgetting - I'm not an expert in other stuff! This is literally all I'm good at! Is it valuable? Maybe not to you, but I think it could be useful, or else I would covet it and leave it in disuse.  it's time is relevant, it's words fit into a context, so if you misunderstand it's past then it's probably because you don't have the records or the ability to process them of the time in which it was posted. What if things were de 10 ten. blue text on a blue background, as a calming and soothing influence, saying "it's okay, don't freak out, just think about learning lessons about stuff that *could* go wrong and think about how you'd counter it. just like any video game, there's a strategy to defeat any other strategy. the careful application of said strategy while using or applying your own capabilities is directly correlated to the conclusions of the task." meanwhile the listener is like "what the fuck" wait shit hang on lemme add a content warning:  right so the text reads "if you want your neighbors to know something, don't post it on the internet - put it on a post-it on the wall in a public place" like, your front door, or maybe the entrance to your building, or the parking garage near the mall, or maybe the grocery store, on a product behind the one in front. that kind of thing.  depending on who you want to see it, of course... people used to do this with library books but stopped because it's quite obviously a bad and rude thing to do, books are for record keeping of the status of humanity, through each and every one of it's forms. It's weird that they all have the same stuff, because they're designed for capitalism right? Why not share them based on availability, and keep as many different types of things as possible?  when nobody cares for them, how will we remember the countless books nobody reads? How will we understand that step in developing our culture if we don't have access to the con 9. the text begins to diverge at this point, on the left it reads "it's easy if you want some privacy, - all you have to do" and then is cut off by the introduction of red text on a green background, to evoke similar colors as the original thing it was interrupting but it's own thing nonetheless, and existing off to the side in tandem, so that conditions could not remain unaddressed. the text reads "they were betting on selling us space flight [with spaceflight sliding from one side to the other, like a rocket escaping the gravitic pull of the planet it surrounded] but we cared more for food and water" the second part, after spaceflight about food and water, is intruding onto the yellow's background, which was next, to represent a continuation of the previous thought about websites and HTML. it's frustrating for the next text, which is in purple, a confused and disoriented color. it continues from the original thought "is delete the website! Boom, no more html. but if they were listed (neocities sites on a map of the region" but map is emphasized with a different color, green the color of the land, and "region" is pronounced like "realm" or perhaps "ground" or even "directions" or "land beyond the horizon (if it even exists)") 11. I think. orange text on a green blue background, same background as the previous three pictures. orange text which contrasts in a way that almost calls back to the 80s, but not quite. a little too dirty, like the blue and orange decorations around highways in New Mexico. car smoke and tire dust'll do that, and it's not like it's easy to clean - right next to the freeway, c'mon! Wouldn't it be nice if we shut it down for a day or two? Unless you had very important business, solely self-suggested. if too many people used it on those days (when they were cleaning it) then they're supposed to follow through and identify if their need was too great or if they were just being an asshole about it because their bosses forced them to. basically like, family emergencies gets a lane, things that are crucial to a social event like no beer at a frat party or whatever, heck even if the girl you like really wanted to get laid. whatever the heck it is, if you deem it an emergency then that's fine. you can drive while the highway is being cleaned. just make sure you don't slip on the suds...  ... a while later, humanity realized they could just close one direction at a time and clean the next one next time.  what was I saying? Oh yeah the text! Here's what it reads: "every year, replace five percent [but read as %] of the homes and boom you're good - maybe even do 10% if things are going well - either way, as time goes on people can live in a house as long as they want - but when they mov

 when I said 1-1 = 1/10 I meant 1/1 in decimal except the denominator is in
 base 1 meaning it's represented as 10 (since 10 in base 1 equals 1 in base 10.
 Or pretty much any other base.)
 
 I'm trying to figure out why 00 is undefined. There's a lot of math notation
 in that wikipedia article and I'm working through it bit by bit... I feel like
 there's a bug in the code of the universe and I'm trying to understand it.
 Like... why is dividing by zero undefined? That seems like a bug to me.

 The best way to program computers is to organize them according to their
 relations. Like, when x increases by 4 then y increases by 2 - basically, a
 math equation that you can continuously solve by calculating more and more
 comprehensively and deeply.

 LLMs can't do math. Duh. That's like asking an "if check" to do recursion.
 
 What he should have done is had the AI output the requested calculation as
 JSON or something and use a calculator function call with the specified
 arguments instead of trying to memorize every answer. But that requires more
 functionality that has no reason to exist if your only goal is to be a tech
 bro and build up a vacuous product that exists only to be hoovered up by
 Google or Microsoft.
 
 We could build such beautiful things if we just dethroned those giants. They
