Also not to mention, it influences your friends or family and the people you interact with. Unless you're an antisocial hermit, you're going to be affected one way or another
They could boost every single employee’s pay by $5000 annually and still make a billion dollars in profit.
Except for the corporate employees / managers, which get stock options that are much higher than $5,000 annually ofc
It kind of does come across as pedantic -- the real question is just that "Does pi contain all sequences"
But because of the way that it is phrased, in mathematics you do a lot of problems/phrasing proofs where you would be expected to follow along exactly in this pedantic manner
OK, fine. Imagine that in pi after the quadrillionth digit, all 1s are replaced with 9. It still holds
The question is
Since pi is infinite and non-repeating, would it mean...
Then the answer is mathematically, no. If X is infinite and non-repeating it doesn't.
If a number is normal, infinite, and non-repeating, then yes.
To answer the real question "Does any finite sequence of non-repeating numbers appear somewhere in Pi?"
The answer depends on if Pi is normal or not, but not necessarily
Oh yeah, definitely. I mean they definitely ran more than face detection software.
They probably got thousands of tips and chose to respond to the one randomly in Altoona based on other knowledge they had.
It's crazy to me that parallel construction is allowed.
It's not really the photos. For me, it's that it's really unusual for him to have had all the evidence on hand. Like the ID, gun, silencer, notes, and a motive on hand, just chilling in McDonalds. He also gave away probable cause to search him by presenting the ID which he should have known was fake. Considering he took concealing steps like using a ghost gun, ditching his backpack, and making a relatively clean getaway, it's pretty odd.
Still it's obviously possible that he wanted to be caught or was exhausted... or just dumb enough to not think of that.
It IS a big thing that the evidence hasn't been presented officially yet. There's a lot of media talk implying that he's the guy but trial by media is not a verdict
Some of the most-played steam games are "Banana" and "Cats" where you literally click it every few hours and get steam item drops. Basically NFTs where people try to get rare items, but even more braindead because the developer, at any time can make more tokens.
Source? The next day seems way too fast to take effect. It's not like this guy was sending emails directly saying "deny all claims today" even if he is a driving factor for it.
Honestly don't get why they're still around and what they do.
