      But floating-point notation also can’t precisely represent irrational numbers…

          Following Pythagoreanism and believing irrational numbers to be blasphemous. They’re represented by being struck down by the gods.

      I mean it’s fine for me, but if it’s broken for others I’ll just use this one then.

        For future people here. They’ll disable the link after a few days. When taking things off discord you have to now download the image, they no longer want to host things.

    Have had too many debates with senior programmers who don’t understand why multiplying by 0.1 doesn’t work.

    “It works in <favorite language>, why doesn’t it work in <not favorite language>?”

    For those who are curious, that’s the IEEE 754 representation of the number 300.
