Nobody is asking for anybody's opinion you dumb baby...that's what voting is for.
What I'm saying is he offered NOTHING. Not only that, but he/she is a probie so they have NEVER OFFERED ANYTHING to this site...get it now, dummy? Get why this fucking site is going to shit and you're all a bunch of horribly stupid people?

No problem, dumbass. You're absolutely right, the internet is full of annoying people who think they're entitled to "comment" on something. Especially those newb bastards who don't spend every waking minute on this site.... sheesh.

Congrats! Newb!

Why don't the cops just drive close to him and use EMP power up? Newbs.

Don't cop cars in Australia come with banana peels?


That's a GREAT idea! Next time the police should just ask all the civilians to throw out their banana peels, turtles or squid instead of forming a road block.

LOL!!! you're comparing this topic to the actual work that engineers and physicists do? That is hilarious. Yes, I'm sure the engineering world has much to thank the awesome ability of arguing on a message board over what .999... is equal to.
This has nothing to do with calculus. This has nothing to do with actual practical work. This has nothing to do with solving actual problems. This is about going onto a internet message board and browbeating others which has already happened as I predicted.
Before you start insulting the education of someone else, make sure YOU'RE not making any mistakes of YOUR own, eh?
Sorry I can't stay and "debate" with you on this truly fascinating topic. I have to go to my job tomorrow and do REAL work and solve ACTUAL problems. Sure it's not as grand and as thought-provoking as comparing .999... to 1, nor do I get to beat up on some hapless internet newb who happens to take the troll-bait. But hey, we have to get our satisfaction somehow.

So enlighten me, o' wise ones. What is the point of this other than troll-bait and/or ego masturbation?
This topic is the intellectual equivalent of QM coming in here and making ad-homs about "His Earness" or waxing egocentric about why he is virtuous and true and the rest of us are all immoral entitlement whores.
You saw how quickly messenger called into question the entire sift's intelligence over Entropy's post.
This sort of thing does not lend itself well to civil discourse. Admit it, the only purpose of a topic such as this is to entice someone to come in here and to argue that .999... is not 1 so you can have a grand ole time stroking your ego and patting yourself on the back over how smart you are and how the other person is dumb.

This simple concept is one of the fundamental principles of calculus. Without it you don't have engineering, physics, or a million other things known as the modern world. It's not some obscure irrelevant math trivia only used by math geeks. It is a fundamental first year mathematics principle used by every scientist, engineer, and pharmacist in the work they do every day to make all the things you take for granted.
But yeah, just because your not educated enough to appreciate that you should rag all over it and insist it's unimportant. We should burn all the books you don't care for too, right?



Get over yourself. The video isn't supposed to start any kind of fight or internet debate. It's a simply instructive video about basic math.

If you want to be upset with anyone for starting an internet fight over something you consider unimportant blame the first poster in the thread that tried to turn it that way...

Oh, I see, it was you...

Don't worry mate, you could be here since the dawn of time and still dupe, we all do it! Especially when the search engine decides to be a retard

Pretty much a dupe of this one, except with an extra 10 seconds of virgin declaration...


Ya it is....sorry I'm kinda a newb at this. :

Sift test-

Should you :

A) Kill the video
B) inform the original submitter that you found a better version of their video and offer your embed while going somewhat out of your way to get the video duped so votes are transferred.
c) Keep the video up
D)dupe it and forget about it
