[DMJ4POTUS] April 2016 - Howdy Black Sheep
« on: March 25, 2016, 01:07:55 AM »
Hey guys, I'm here to announce that I'm running for President this month. My family is out of town visiting my in-laws, so I've been planning this run for some time to coincide with that, knowing I would have the time to devote to doing a good job.

Hey again, I edited my OP to include my new article about domestic programs and the people I've tagged for the jobs in those departments.

I'm still available for any questions.

Thanks!

Yo,

I have had a few intriguing questions on my mind lately:

If you have a serie: 1+1-1+1-1... (Grandi's), what is the answer and why?
(click to show/hide)



Also about Pi (what a fascinating number, I personally have first 10B digits counted): it's said that Pi is infinite and contains all finite series, like your social number. If that is the case could it contain another Pi in it; making it thus repetitive and not infinite? We already know that Pi isn't a random but what if the repetitive part is so long or far that we haven't yet reached it.  8)

It's difficult to provide the proof here (my personal preference is the proof by integration) but the sum is 1/2. Not my favorite area of Mathematics, but that's one of the more interesting series.

As far as pi, I think it depends on how many digits you would need to see to consider it another pi. Since pi is irrational, it could never contain the fullness of itself.

I had a discussion in my history of math course recently where another student accused me of "faith-based mathematics" and said that accepting irrational numbers as being real is the worst thing we've done to modern mathematics because there's no evidence they actually exist. I told him good luck with whatever he's planning to do with half of modern mathematics in the trash bin.

:-D

Integration will do it. I find series of 1+2+3... even more interesting and its manipulated answer.

Anyways, good luck for your run.

Ps. I guess you got my vote.

Mathematics wins again! Lol. Thanks for an entertaining inquiry, unna.

If you are theoretically elected, what ways are you going to bring change to the ever shrinking new player base?

I think I've laid out some concrete ways in my articles thus far. I want to increase our sense of community. Making eRep FUN to play is how we keep people around. People don't want to enter a divisive environment. Something I mentioned to you in my plans for events was things where people from different parties team up for the event to bolster communication between people outside our normal comfort spheres.

Sounds like a lot of hot air.

You're certainly entitled to that opinion. I disagree, though.
