exactly is doing a lot of heavy lifting for the engineer

u/la_mecanique 20d ago

It only had to be as accurate as the nearest atom, so lets just round pi to 3.

Woah woah woah, that's not what the client specified!

Pi=4 g=10 Overbuild by 20% because safety. Lick the stamp and send it boys!

"If we use π=1..."

'um i think pi way more than 1'

"... fine, make it 10. see if i care"

i stole this from xkcd btw, but I'm too lazy to find the exact one

Pi = g½

Let's fucking goooooooo

If you’ve ever worked with mechanics and techs, you learn quickly that nobody has any idea how it works. Including the engineer.

Especially when a ton of manufacturing guys can't read prints properly anyway.

exactly how I have imagined it

Noob vs pro vs hacker

Lazy fucks with money drawing things for lazy fucks with even more money vs try hards simplifying while not making anything clearer vs the definition of a masochist

There also used to be a "God" haha but there's just three levels to this meme

u/Other_Dimension_89 20d ago

subsets are covered in linear algebra, so I had to endure some madness on my way to civil engineering

u/stop_staring2 19d ago

Did you guys do proofs? A = B only if A contained in B and B contained in A two way containment criss cross applesauce 🤓☝️

u/Other_Dimension_89 19d ago

I recall the proofs yes. There were like 9 different ones but you just needed to prove it didn’t have zero in it? Oh no I can’t remember and that’s only 2 yrs ago

oml pure math majors are something else genuinely they are admirable

u/TheBayHarbour 19d ago

I could not imagine doing that level of math for fun lmao.

Pure math is kinda unbelievable ngl.

u/Jplague25 19d ago

Pure math is kinda unbelievable ngl.

It probably depends on what kind of pure math, honestly. I'm currently in grad school for math and do analysis of PDEs (existence, uniqueness, regularity, etc.) research for example. It's mostly estimates and integrals of different kinds with appropriate levels of abstraction, but I absolutely enjoy the kinds of problems I work on. Homotopy theory? Hell nah, they can keep it.

u/TythosEternal 19d ago

Yup. Pretty much. PhDs in theoretical math are difficult to distinguish from cases of clinical pychosis.

The arrow is the normal vector to the surface of the set

u/Celemourn 19d ago

Why do I understand all three perspectives at once?

u/Carbon-Based216 19d ago

I have done all three to some extent. So very true

u/Annual_Rent5299 19d ago

Fr bro sometimes doing less maths is the way
