Another thought on this matter: this is why I am incredibly suspect of any space claiming to be a "safe space" or "wholesome" because that usually boils down to "we can't tolerate being uncomfortable and anything unusual makes us uncomfortable". this dweeb was so committed to inclusivity they found the fact that i have genuinely statistically abnormal physiology unbearable. It's not the first time. It won't be the last
@peterrowlett Suppose the largest representable number below 1 is 1 - ε. Then the Taylor expansion of √(1 - ε) is 1 - ε/2 - ε²/8 + …, which is closer to 1 - ε than it is to 1. So it's correctly rounding the correct result.
I don’t know how these simple calculators work. My son has noticed if he repeatedly square roots, say, 0.7734 it converges on 0.9999998 but then just sits there. Why does it think √0.9999998=0.9999998?
Fan art of Magik from Marvel X Men! After reimagining Psylocke, I had to do Magik next, my all-time favorite from X-Men 🔥Gave her a sleek, modern anime style. Would love to see this kind of Japanese-style skin in Marvel Rivals!ダークチャイルド !! #magik #xmen #mastoart
