| 2025-11-21 05:40:33 +0100 | <EvanR> | chromoblob, this is false for floats, and is the correct thing to do in some cases |
| 2025-11-21 05:40:13 +0100 | <EvanR> | attempting to use math on a computer is a source of errors in programs. avoidance recommended |
| 2025-11-21 05:40:04 +0100 | <chromoblob> | you should never test "real" numbers for equality, it's not meaningful in computers |
| 2025-11-21 05:40:02 +0100 | <jreicher> | That's really interesting. I object to it on mathematically purist grounds, which I'm only half-serious about, but that actually looks like it matters. |
