minus-squareTransporter Room 3@startrek.websiteBannedlinkfedilinkarrow-up25arrow-down3·1 year agoBeyond the general “hehe funny meme” Some seem to think there’s some kind of math going on in people’s heads other than “shortcut” The knowledge of Pythagoras or math doesn’t factor in here at all. Toddlers do this. Having the knowledge just gives you fancy words for the resulting coincidental shape.
minus-squaregandalf_der_12te@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoYeah, somebody once explained this to me like “even stupid animals go directly at where they want to go”
minus-squareKruemel@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up9arrow-down1·1 year agoThe way is sqr(2)=1.4 instead of 2.
minus-squareTXL@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up12arrow-down3·1 year agoIt’s also a straight line between points, so nobody really cares just how much shorter it is.
minus-squareyetAnotherUser@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down1·1 year agoYeah, it’s just the triangle inequality.
minus-squaremyslsl@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down1·1 year agoYeah, true. No Euclidean distances implicit to this problem. Oh, wait…
minus-squareDessalines@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoYeah… this is just “the shortest distance between two points is a straight line”
minus-squarejenny_ball@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoyea i get the intent but it doesn’t really make sense
