Never, in any engineering field, have I EVER seen anyone simplify pi to 5. For that matter, I have never seen anyone simplify to 3. It is always 3.14. I feel like pi simplification is a weird meme that people think engineers do but is never practiced anywhere.
It’s like if there was a meme about chefs saying they always replace eggs with grapefruit. No they don’t, and it’s nonsense to think they do.
Suffer and die slowly? Where’s the profit in that? Now organ farms, THERES a moneymaker!
Oh, see, you’re under the impression that this is about public safety. It’s not. It’s about giving insurance companies an excuse to deny claims.
Was hoping it was hyperbole but, yea, ok that’s horrifying. Thank you for sharing.
Haven’t really been following things super closely because it’s like looking into the sun, but are you talking about the famine they are causing, or the IDF killing people at food aid sites, and just calling that the Hunger Games? Or are they actually gathering groups of two children each and putting them in an arena with weapons in the center and having them fight to the death?
I ask because you said LITERAL Hunger Games, which implies it’s more than just the famine or the aid site murders.
That is CLEARLY Mrs. Butterworth you uncultured SWINE.
Yea, God forbid we make statements that would be unappealing to advertisers.
You do know there is nothing illegal in most countries about talking about violence, right? Like, that rule is not for any legitimate legal reason, it’s there to keep websites sanitary.
Why the fuck are you so afraid of calls to action?
“The situation in the world is becoming so tense that I fear an outbreak of violence is inevitable.”
Now, was that a call to violence, or simply an observation on the state of things? Because what I said is essentially the same thing as the original comment.
I really don’t think he was getting at that, it just seems like misdirected blame. It’s like if Nike stopped selling their shoes on Amazon and you went “Fuck you Jeff Bezos!”.
It’s like OP didn’t even SEE the movie!
Oooh, I got you OP. If you liked the dense micro-maps of Into the Breach, check out Bad North. Defend small islands from waves of invaders with limited troops. Not an overly long game, but very satisfying for what it is.
Ubisoft wishes they could make a game that good.
I’ve also never seen a fellow engineer simplify pi to just 3, although I have seen a rise of memes from people who think they do.
I would slap someone if I saw them try that, it’s unnecessarily sloppy. 3.14 is the default, and trivial to work with if you’re using a calculator (I would also slap someone if I saw them not using a calculator). Unless you just LIKE having all your calculations be off by almost 5%. Then you’ll come back wondering why so many of your parts are out of tolerance.

“Sorry, you must not have heard me; you called me back for an interview and the others didn’t.”
The only time you should be doing head calcs as an engineer is to double check that you have a reasonable answer with the actual calcs on your actual calculator.
