I'm grateful for the internet, actually

2017-11-25 21:41:48 UTC  

Or I wouldn't have been able to learn what I now know

2017-11-25 21:41:59 UTC  

I have a friend who only completed upper secondary but got employed as an engineer.

2017-11-25 21:42:25 UTC  

He's the most skilled engineer and one of the smartest people I've ever met.

2017-11-25 21:42:40 UTC  

And I know several who had a formal college education.

2017-11-25 21:42:48 UTC  

The main realization which unlocks that possibility is that in school, you just study on your own and then prove what you've learned to your "teacher". So why even pay to go there?

2017-11-25 21:42:54 UTC  

None of them has his skills.

2017-11-25 21:43:09 UTC  

Yeah I feel the same about the internet.

2017-11-25 21:43:24 UTC  

There so few things I would know without it.

2017-11-25 21:44:09 UTC  

I remember one time when I had to look up some concept I didn't know in programming

2017-11-25 21:44:18 UTC  

Lol in high school I had a natural science teacher who tried to convince me and my class that ghosts exists.

2017-11-25 21:44:18 UTC  

So I looked at videos of someone else using it

2017-11-25 21:44:20 UTC  

shit I feel wobbly

2017-11-25 21:44:31 UTC  

and I got #triggered with my ptsd, thinking that I'd have to do a bunch of useless tasks even though I got it, to get the grade

2017-11-25 21:44:36 UTC  

then I realized I wasn't in school

2017-11-25 21:44:42 UTC  

I didn't have to do shit

2017-11-25 21:45:36 UTC  

@Someguy VERY GOOD. BE AT PEACE.

I had a bio teacher spend like a whole lecture on trying to disprove the bible

2017-11-25 21:46:34 UTC  

Found this at the public library among current magazines.

2017-11-25 21:46:40 UTC  

"young and trans"

2017-11-25 21:47:12 UTC  

"Antonia and Viktoria, two role models for young trans persons".

2017-11-25 21:47:22 UTC  

#triggered

2017-11-25 21:47:43 UTC  

Looks to me to be aimed at kids who has recently entered puberty.

2017-11-25 21:48:10 UTC  

What the shirt says also reveals a lot 🙄

2017-11-25 21:48:32 UTC  

are you aafraid to se the word faggot?

2017-11-25 21:48:37 UTC  

uuuse

2017-11-25 21:49:28 UTC  

Are they trans trenders? They don't really look trans

2017-11-25 21:49:38 UTC  

@Hagel yeah actually had a teacher who seriously tried to convince us that ghosts lived in her home and she was our presumably uneducated but still employed to be our natural science teacher.

2017-11-25 21:50:04 UTC  

`So now I can calculate the geometric distance between any number of abstract concepts that might have 48 dimensions, and still you can compute the distance with more dimensions than exists in the 3d space we can percieve. Things I was told I could never do smile`

That's pretty cool dude. I can last like 50 minutes right now. Usually I can put it back in for another round right after.

2017-11-25 21:52:11 UTC  

lol

2017-11-25 21:52:32 UTC  

You use the pythagorean theorem to compute the distance, assuming it's 2d you can represent a point as a 2d-vector in the cartesian plane then it will have an x and a y coordinate.

2017-11-25 21:52:45 UTC  

Those are the dimensions of the vector.

2017-11-25 21:52:54 UTC  

wait nigga what are you trying to figure out

2017-11-25 21:52:58 UTC  

like in real life what is it you're trying to do

2017-11-25 21:55:14 UTC  

Showing how the pythagorean theorem works in an infinite number of dimensions not just with two dimensions like you learn in shool it has broad applications in computational geometry, 3d computer graphics, measurements of the earth, space navigation, physics it's endless.

2017-11-25 21:55:16 UTC  

😄

2017-11-25 21:56:28 UTC  

so 2d pyfagorean theorem gives you the hypotenuse length, if you add a dimension does it give you the triangle's area?

2017-11-25 21:56:47 UTC  

like if you take 3 line segments, does it give you the area of the triangle between the points?
