I know they meant “worst” in the sense of “bad at math,” but now I’m imagining the world’s worst mathematician trying to figure out how to use math to commit ethic cleansing or poison water supplies or make pugs’ noses even more fucked up or something.
ethic cleansing
Tbh that doesn’t sound too bad? Like maybe take a nice shower but with cruelty free/plant-based soap that wasn’t animal tested (and obviously there’s no drought concern in this scenario).
Ethic cleansing is when I throw a short fuse grenade into an ethics debate.
That would be ‘ethical cleansing’. Ethic cleansing would be to cleanse ethic, meaning you are getting rid of the ethic. That is basically just erasing one’s morals. I think that’s already being taken care of.
No, you’re just washing off the shitty, grimy ethics that accumulated on the good core ethics.
EasternMost Europeans who use,as a decimal point will only receive fifteen euros.You’re counting Germany as eastern Europe?
The only Europeans that use the
.as a decimal separator are the British and present and former colonies.All continental Europe except Gibraltar use the
,, and consequently so do most of Africa and South America.I get using a comma as a radix, sure. It makes grammatical sense, like saying “two, and three tenths”, just a little pause between concepts.
But how does it make any sense anywhere to use a full-stop for grouping digits?! “1.000.000.000.000” looks ludicrous, not to mention we can’t even agree on whether thats a billion or a million!
So, Americans?
Most of these hypotheticals are pretty lame. Like… Why would I care if another person got the same amount as me? I would only care if everyone got the same amount because that would cause massive inflation and now my million dollars is worthless.
Even if everyone got the same amount, I would just press the button every week - and now I’ve YOLO implemented a form of Universal Basic Income.
I’d invent a machine that hits the button 1000 times a second and after a bunch of hours I’d buy Tesla, Amazon, Google and Apple and so on and turn them into companies profitable for humanity.
But first I’d buy some ice-cream.
What options could I place before I press the button?
imagine: you get a dollar but so does elon musk. what would you do?
if everybody presses the button, we end up with a massive wealth inequality problem
and that’s actually how companies operate: the employees work for the company (akin to pressing buttons, just more tedious), and for that they get wages, but the company’s owners also get money that way. repeat the process and the company’s owners end up being massively wealthy, which leads to massive wealth inequality.
is wealth inequality inherently bad? on a global level it seems to benifit most lemmings/redditors/bird brains?
wealth inequality is unavoidable, but excessive wealth inequality is a disease on the society
I would only care if everyone got the same amount because that would cause massive inflation and now my million dollars is worthless.
Everyone’s money won’t mean much. Welcome to being poor, billionaries.
Damn, I’m bad at maths, but am no mathematician…
Fake it till you make it.
I’ll have what she’s having
That took me too long to get, I guess I’m the one on the right.
I don’t get it at all. What does that make me?
The creator of the meme is the world’s worst mathematician.
The question isn’t if I’d press the button, but how many times can I press it before it breaks.
