@stib @nothingfuture @hughtaylorscifi@universeodon.com @LabSpokane @v_perjorative @cycling @mastobikes I've worn through more than a few rims with rim brakes as well...that's definitely a downside.
@Zweistein2Stein I had Covid 9 months ago and still feel like absolute garbage.
Just submitting my personal data point!
@minogully@mstdn.ca They might have some specific definition of "constant" in mind, or some specific situation or usage.
Just for example, in a polynomial expression we often write it with constants denoted like a, b, c and the variable is x. So ax^2 + bx + c.
That type of constant is a different thing than pi, even though we typically use the same word to describe them. Like if you wrote ax^2 + bx + pi, that mean something different than ax^2 + bx + c.
But still, that is sort of a strange thing to just blurt out randomly without taking the time to give a full explanation. Just for example, pi is one of the first specific examples given in the Wikipedia article on mathematical constants: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_(mathematics)
Biked to Dover Station. This is one of roughly 1000 *amazing* places along the Missouri River that you can visit on MoBikeFed's Lewis and Clark Missouri River Adventure Bicycle Route: https://ridewithgps.com/events/105329
