@pickover It's real fun watching kids be bad at physics. This was a question we had in first year of grad school and all us smarty pants had trouble. #2 means less friction. Always pull

@MapuTV Just because only one player plays sans camera doesn't mean it's about that one specific player. Maxpax had great games, but they were less fun to watch compared to the others because of the lack of camera. Abdicating their finals slot kills the hype. Totally support the decision

@climatebabes @PaulSan56345114 @pickover By the definition of a circle: the set of (x,y) pairs (i.e. 2d points) that are solutions to r^2=x^2+y^2 for a set r. If r=0, then only (0,0) solves that equation. This the a circle of radius zero is the set consisting only of (0,0)

@climatebabes @PaulSan56345114 @pickover All of this message destroys your precious points, even the parts that could be coherent. The bit about the same point is irrelevant. Being able to drive pi from a circle is irrelevant. Those truths aren't germane to the definition of a circle. With the nonsense, are you a bot?

[Ben Stortenbecker @BenStort]

@climatebabes @PaulSan56345114 @pickover That is incorrect. Having no distance (or a distance of zero) is still a measure of distance, and therefore a distance by definition. To argue otherwise is equivalent to trying to state the zero isn't a number because you can't hold any fingers up while counting to it.

@pickover The path integral is way too low. Solid S tier weapon

[Ben Stortenbecker @BenStort]

@pickover @ztwiig It definitely shows up somewhere in control theory.

@TheWordN3rd Sorry, girl

[Ben Stortenbecker @BenStort]

This is just wrong, according to RAW 5e, right?
