I always thought that NaN is required by IEEE rules to never equal any other number, including itself, because you can make NaN in different ways and this shouldn't result in equality or something, so C is wild but not javascript's fault.

The other three being true is definitely javascript's insane fault, though.

Pizza and social media. And pizza.

Well done! Keep going.

Only by batshit insane system wreckers. Normal systems don't do this at all.

I have lemmy set to show me a thumbnail and only expand when I tap, so I saw the message before I saw the bunnies.

Look kids! Big Ben! Parliament!

I won't tell if you won't tell.

If I understood, I wouldn't have to ask.

Yes, but if they're just minimums, there's no need for even using the third dimension, let alone the fourth.

I do.

So the fifth person to arrive moves to the centre of the tetrahedron and shifts roughly 1.299m into the past or future.

I have a few questions.

1. How do you attain time offset?
2. Doesn't that make conversation difficult?
3. What even is the fifth dimension?
4. How do you convert a distance in metres into a distance in time? You would surely then have a universal m/s? Oh, wait, there is a universal speed, it's the speed of light, which means 1.299m is equivalent to about 4.3 billionths of a second, which is considerably less impressive for question 1 and just not at all problematic for question 2.
5. If you're using very fast motion for your time offset, doesn't that make conversation even more difficult? How fast would you need to be going to dilate time for a few billionths of a second? Doesn't Heisenberg uncertainty start to have an impact here? How can you be sure you got it right?

It's not a square based pyramid, it's a triangular based pyramid. Imagine the top right hand one floating up onto the air and moving to hover above the centre of the other three (which move to make an equalateral triangle). The distances work but the layout changes.

If the caveat wasn't intended, the word 'due' would be superfluous.

Well played.

Conservatism is, as always, a complete failure of empathy, a lack of ability to recognise that if you don't care about other people and you choose to put people who also don't care about other people in charge, the people in charge simply and absolutely don't care about you or your friends or your family.

Conservatives don't understand that "them" and "us" are actually all just us.

Depends on the soup. Tinned soup from some manufacturer, maybe. My mum's chicken soup? Boil that thing gently for hours and your tongue will love you for a week.

Bullies don't attack people they're scared of.

I got banned on ml for arguing that it was obvious that trump was worse than the Democrats

This is exactly how Conservatives think.

It also goes to lemmy.ml costs.
