2026-06-09 23:09:31 +0000 <EvanR> lol
2026-06-09 23:09:24 +0000 <tomsmeding> indeed, taking the shortest path to bed maximises proper time, i.e. one's time in bed

2026-06-09 23:08:22 +0000 <EvanR> and the "shortest" path from A to B maximizes proper time
2026-06-09 23:07:44 +0000tomsmedingis always timelike
2026-06-09 23:07:33 +0000tomsmedingknows nothing about relativity
2026-06-09 23:07:12 +0000 <EvanR> taking the long way around from A to B in relativity causes a timelike path to take less proper time
2026-06-09 23:06:50 +0000 <tomsmeding> isn't that supposed to be a 4D metric space or something
2026-06-09 23:06:28 +0000 <EvanR> unless it's relativity
2026-06-09 23:06:13 +0000 <lambdabot> False
2026-06-09 23:06:12 +0000 <tomsmeding> > (5-1)^2 <= (5-3)^2 + (3-1)^2
2026-06-09 23:05:07 +0000 <tomsmeding> EvanR: right, squared euclidean doesn't behave like a length; for example, a metric also requires d(a,b) <= d(a,x) + d(x,b), because taking a detour shouldn't make your trip shorter

2026-06-09 22:50:57 +0000 <EvanR> Num was one practical organization while breaking it up would be another, but someone would complain either way

2026-06-09 22:48:49 +0000 <EvanR> I guess the first three obeys |a*xhat| = |a| while the latter doesn't
2026-06-09 22:47:18 +0000 <EvanR> would it be funny if euclidean norm, taxicab norm, and chebychev are all perfectly cromulent norms but squared euclidean is not
