I've been playing around with the Surreal numbers and one thing that prompted is how to get to non-dyadic rationals from dyadic rationals. You can approach them by bouncing back and forth between dyadic rationals like this for 1/17:
- 1/8 ≈ 0.125 (target=0.058823529411764705)
- 1/16 ≈ 0.0625 (target=0.058823529411764705)
- 1/32 ≈ 0.03125 (target=0.058823529411764705)
+ 3/64 ≈ 0.046875 (target=0.058823529411764705)
+ 7/128 ≈ 0.0546875 (target=0.058823529411764705)
+ 15/256 ≈ 0.05859375 (target=0.058823529411764705)
This makes some cool little patterns based on whether you are adjust up or down. 1/17 is boring, but 1/13 is a bit fun: 000100111011000100111011

In "night of the living dead", it's the living people who are actually there "living dead" because they're all doomed to die at the end. 🤯 just blew ur mind

Also used the same quantity of dough to make this ball. I assume it's basically a rock because of how dense it would be but IDK. I made it as a kind of joke.
#breakfast : scrambled eggs with kale, parsley, jalapenos, garlic, and mushrooms
+ oatmeal with honey, PB, banana and my secret blend of spices 😋
Smells sweet! Based loosely on this recipe: https://lovingitvegan.com/vegan-banana-bread/
I make it non-vegan though by using a chicken egg rather than a "flax egg". I also use maybe half the sugar (bananas are already sweet!) and add chocolate chips sometimes (like today). I added half a tbsp of vanilla extract, some lemon juice (maybe a teaspoon or two) and let the batter rest before putting it in the pan to see if I could make it a bit "fluffier". I think it worked?
Second attempt at https://tasty.co/recipe/the-fluffiest-vegan-pancakes
turned out pretty good (for me, anyway)
