#tangent — Public Fediverse posts

@0xabad1dea I was just looking up a different Lizard the other day. In Cornwall. ISRT they were in the Zone of Totality (eclipse) some years back. I was thinking of going, but in the end I never did. I kind of regret it, so I'm going to completely misread "lizard forgives" as a way of absolving myself of that regret.

#Tangent

I'm looking for a math #math #teacher who could show me, in #trigonometry , why it is equivalent to measure the #tangent as "an oblic segment" (towards the X axis) and a "vertical segment" (on x=1)

It seems intuitivelly logical, but i can't find a way to properly demonstrate it.

Thank you!

“In 1980, #Intel released the #Intel8087 #FloatingPoint coprocessor, a chip that could make math up to 100 times faster. As well as arithmetic and square roots, the 8087 computed #transcendental functions including #tangent, #exponentiation, and #logarithms.

But it all depended on a 69-bit adder: "The arithmetic heart of the floating-point execution unit is centered about a #nanomachine comprised of the adder and its related #registers, #shifters and control circuitry," as the patent describes it”

Dear Friends who can still not touch #type let alone thumb type or #spell properly or prettily, without help,

Yes ye olde #dinosaurs, we have managed to:

- Change and use varied Operating Systems
- #Techno inhabit the cyber super-highways
- #Rebelled against the money #monstrosities
- Used modern #modems (when they were)
- Worked in the silence of the night
- Gone to #free computer shows
- Bought #floppies in bulk

Now we are coming to warn you that
the space rocks are not your friends.
The mega #monster corps are trying
to eat your #brains

What can you do against this do-do?
1) #Develop #independent and #critical
capacity from the phone zombie infestation
2) #Enrich your life not you #dependence
3) Find lateral, #tangent and diverse friendship

You are the #meek not the market and this is your #inheritance

Giving #Tangent a try as an #OrgRoam / #Obsidian alternative. Very good first impressions so far. :moomin_hmm:

@pink_doublethink I liked Logseq but as a block-based outliner I wouldn’t consider it a replacement for Obsidian, and it’s in an odd place developmentally right now.

If Obsidian disappeared, I’d consider the following, which all use plaintext files in system folders:

- #Zettlr I’ve tried this and it’s quite good. Open source with a committed, responsive, personable dev. Definitely worth trying.

- #Tangent Notes

- VS Code/Codium with the Foam plugin

@geospacedman Ended up nearly in tears while driving last weekend. Played the soundtrack to the RSC Nicholas Nickleby production, and it so sharply and strongly reminded me of Mum that I nearly lost it. Don't think the family noticed, thank goodness. Really sorry I'll not get to see your talk, Barry. #tangent
