Theorem: Calculus is wrong.
For a theory or set of knowledge to be true, it must always give correct results. A failure to do so, at even an instance, invalidates it and will require a reformulation of the theory and procedures.
That said. Lets get the derivative of sinx.
Easy, right?
(sin(x+h) - sin(x))/h as h->0
(sin(x)cos(h) + cos(x)sin(h) - sin(x))/0 as h-> 0
because h->0, cos(h)->1 and sin(h)->0
(sin(x) - sin(x))/h as h->0
so we end up with
0/h as h->0 which is basically 0/0, that is to say undefined.
Therefore, our current calculus FAILS to get a defined derivation of sine, and you will see that the same thing happens for cosine.
Therefore all of calculus is wrong and you are all basically morons for studying so much of it when it was all wrong. All you had to do to prove it was to try to derivate sin or cos and realize that some faggot 300 years ago called Isaac Bumfuckton just made up the derivative and paid no close attention to that would happen.
Q.E. Motherfucking D.

No, I'm actually pretty depressed about it because the world is literally retarded about exponential curves. If we were to listen to Kurzweil, our entire economic engine would grind to a halt and none of his predictions would have any merit whatsoever. Your options for futurism are fantasy or realism. Pick the one you like, put it up front whenever you discuss the technological singularity, and don't ever pretend that your fantasies affect the economy ever again.

The answer is actually pretty simple.
If portals work through space time distortion, it's A.
If portals work through some sort of instant atomic assembler/disassembler, it's B.
The game never states how portals work, so it can be either of them.

Its A, I'm pretty sure they mentioned something about space time in the game.
>>
>>7863410
It's always B.
Energy is not conserved in Portal, and objects must always exit the portal at the same velocity relative to the portal that they entered.

What do you think about base 10?
Do you think there's a better base to teach math with?
What would be the worst base to teach math with?
I always thought a base that you could divide by 2 easily would be good, like 16.
In this hypothetical assume we are not used to any base system yet.

>Do you think there's a better base to teach math with?
No, we have 10 fingers.
The best base is base 12, because it is small enough and 12 can be divided by 2, 3, 4, and 6, while all the numbers bellow 12 have at most two divisors.
>>
>>7882238
Actually, now I remembered that 12 is as good as 10 for teaching. You can use these things on your hand, dunno how they are called.
