@sublimner@libsoftiktok To be offended, one must TAKE offense.
I did NOT take offense.
I showed out that your argument has no merit. Yet you did that already by directing your response against the person.
Will i tell you more about me while you’re attacking me? no
I will talk about Jesus though!
@i_jessica@libsoftiktok The 1973 Rosenhan Experiment exposed abuses in psychiatric institutions: mentally healthy people got admitted to psychiatric hospitals and struggled to get released.
public backlash & deinstitutionalization (of 80s) drove the closure of asylums.
But we traded care for neglect
@sla1313@HillelNeuer@BillAckman@WhiteHouse A dangerous idea- last time a leading nation left- the whole rest of the world was able to mobilize against them (Russia in time of Korean war)
Better to stay with veto power
@oisyn@thebradfordkim@Math_files By putting the harmonic series immediately after the colon, we demonstrate each term corresponds to each minute- the sum at each value- minute 1, sum after 1… minute 2- sum after two
You are allowed to be wrong and ignorant … but I won’t tolerate rudeness. Bye
@oisyn@thebradfordkim@Math_files The total is the numbers I described…
that sum (1+1/2+1/3…) after 525,000 pieces (one year) is only $13.75
You get that every minute
@oisyn@thebradfordkim@Math_files And this is where i will show you’re off
There are 525,000 minutes in a year
Min 1: $1
Min 2: 1.5$
Min 3: 1.75$
Min 4: 1.88$
Last min of Y1: $13.74
Which is
6.7M total year 1
7.3M year 2
7.7M year 3
7.8M year 4
Last min of year 4 $15.14
Takes 107 years to 1B
Take the 1B$
@oisyn@thebradfordkim@Math_files I’m addressing it straight on-
1- green is better during a human lifetime
2- it’s more than 18$awarded after 80 years
3- a geometric sum might change the assessment if the ratio of pieces was greater than 1…
None of these is wrong
@oisyn@thebradfordkim@Math_files Well, you guys were both a bit wrong here… e.g. the amount awarded is far more than 18$ over 80 years, AND it is still shorter than 1 billion
To me, we just want more clarity - awarded per minute remains kinda small even for the first trillion sums.. about 28$/min…
@oisyn@thebradfordkim@Math_files A geometric series is where thr same ratio exists between each term…
This isn’t true here.
I was agreeing that this is not a “large” value over a human lifetime
The ratio between terms is not fixed- it increases by n/(n+1)… A tiny amount
6mil/year or so- then7 mil
@MartinElustondo@dunyasalbilim in calculus- by the definition of convergence, the value of an infinite sum is defined as its limit.
An infinite series does not mean adding infinitely many terms all at once. Its sum is the finite limit approachedby its sequence of partial sums.
.5 + .25+ .125 +…= 1
@The_Hellenist And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. John 10:16
….That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob
Matt 8:11-12
@redding1x “Sublinear”- but auto correct changes things- also a value of 1 of this ratio means that there is more investigating required … imagine the series is 1, -1, 1, -1 etc. the ratio is 1.
semantics are actually unimportant when limited to 280 characters… a limit must just accept
@redding1x Zeno’s dichotomy paradox is disproven by math- ratio of inf. series <1 means convergence.
The paradox posits that if you try to get somewhere you must first get halfway there- forever
Sure I was broad - but a ratio of 1 could mean sub linear convergence
Hush with the insults
