...doesn't mean that the idea wasn't shit. It just means that someone built them according to a contract.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THE FLATERENOS MUST BE HEARED! WHAT ABOUT THE FUZZY IMAGES! WHAT ABOUT THE FISH LENSES!

why do people say reality is really just information? what is information? will this unify physics?

how do you calculate the formula for the sum of a series that's neither arithmetic nor geometric?
i'm trying to optimise an algorithm for the project im doing and i've noticed a series that goes like this:
n*[x+ (n-1)/2 * y] + (n-1)[x+(n-2)/2 * y] +...+(2x+y) + x
where x and y are const variables
i guess i could look at it as two different series, i.e. n*x + (n-1)x +...+x and n*(n-1)/2 * y + (n-1)(n-2)/2 * y +...+y + 0, then the first sum is easy since its arithmetic but for love of god i cant remember how to do the second one
sorry if that's something obvious but i haven't done math in some while

I've heard Aspirin is pretty easy. Tou could even give it to the people on here to relieve the headache you're causing. Two birds bra

someone explain anaylitic continuation, especially with respect to the infinite sum of all natural numbers
