Yoni

[01:48:57] Yoni: "graduate school" means "2nd degree"?
[01:49:04] Nate: after bachelors
[01:49:13] Yoni: yes
[01:49:22] Yoni: in hebrew we call it "1st degree" and "2nd degree"
[01:49:30] Nate: what about 2.5 degree?
[01:49:38] Yoni: ph.d. we call "doctorate"
[01:49:44] Nate: bad!
[01:49:48] Yoni: or sometimes "3rd degree"
[01:49:55] Nate: they should make the degrees progress like this
[01:50:09] Nate: first degree = .5, second = .75, third = half that distance and so forth
[01:50:15] Nate: and you never reach the highest degree
[01:50:17] Yoni: hehe
[01:50:24] Yoni: b.a. = 0.5
[01:50:30] Yoni: m.a. = 0.75
[01:50:36] Yoni: ph.d. = 0.875
[01:50:38] Yoni: euler = 1
[01:50:42] Nate: lol
[01:50:47] Nate: no
[01:50:51] Nate: Euler has complex numbers
[01:50:53] Nate: so Euler = 2
[01:50:56] Yoni: n'th degree = 1 - 2^-n
[01:50:59] Nate: with magic of complex numbers
[01:51:05] Yoni: making euler the infinite'th degree
[01:51:18] Nate: yes but with n = complex
[01:51:21] Nate: Euler can be 2
[01:51:22] Nate: or more
[01:51:25] Yoni: yeah
[01:51:31] Nate: Euler has complex numbers
[01:51:38] Nate: and he came up with a way to do n^complex power
[01:51:40] Nate: so he is 2
[01:51:57] Yoni: n = -log_2(-1) gives you "2"
[01:52:08] Nate: lol hehe
[01:52:08] Yoni: what's -log_2(-1) ?
[01:52:14] Yoni: -log(-1) / log(2)
[01:52:14] Nate: pi/ln(2)
[01:52:17] Yoni: log(-1) = ?
[01:52:18] Nate: pi*i
[01:52:24] Yoni: e^(i*pi) = -1
[01:52:25] Yoni: so yep
[01:52:30] Nate: pi*i / ln 2
[01:52:30] Yoni: that's -i*pi/log(2)
[01:52:38] Nate: yep
[01:52:40] Yoni: great
[01:52:52] Yoni: so Euler has the -i*pi/log(2)'th degree
[01:52:57] Yoni: that's it
[01:52:59] Yoni: he wins
[01:53:05] Nate: :D

You have the most interesting conversations, :(
I'm awake in the infinite cold.

[13:41:45]<@Fapiko> Why is TehUser asking for wang pictures?
[13:42:03]<@TehUser> I wasn't asking for wang pictures, I was looking at them.
[13:47:40]<@TehUser> Mine's fairly short.
