       @gutenberg_org Hang on, are we talking about Taylor or McLauren series here? Just curious about what the state of the art was at the time.

       @gutenberg_org Thanks! I somehow thought that the Taylor series was somewhat later than Newton's work on calculus but I guess that they were contemporaries and Newton would have been aware of Taylor's work (as well as earlier formulae for pi).This could become a bit of a rabbit hole, but I'm reminded of Fabrice Bellard's more recent calculations (probably since surpassed?) and wondering what new techniques he used...

       @neauoire Only just came across this stuff you're doing recently and it looks fascinating. I wonder how you implement bags in the background. Since you use the / operator to remove or replace things I was wondering if perhaps each bag is a bignum with entities inside the sets (sorry, bags) represented by distinct prime numbers, and the bag as a whole being the product of all members...It's an idea I toyed with a long time ago (for a different application) and I'd be delighted to find out that someone else might be using the same thing.Again, it's all just about seeing the / sign and jumping to (probably unwarranted) conclusions.

       @itsfoss I think the key should be done away with altogether. My favourite keyboards don't have them, so I'm probably biased. Although, I did recently get a new keyboard with the dreaded Win key and I discovered that Win+. lets you type in an emoji by name. Kind of shifted my opinion a little bit... it can actually be useful instead of something that I hit by mistake 100% of the time.

       @EUCommission Here, less writing things in "excellence-based" language. L1: why the full stops?L2: "these." "this" conjures up thoughts of "the message" being the thing.L3: WTF is IDAHOT?L3: Never begin a sentence with "But," "Because" or "And"Also, fucking just write messages that we can get behind instead of sloganeering.

       @SwiftOnSecurity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weird_Science_(film)This quote from Roger Ebert could easily be adapted to apply to the above story."There are enough moviegoing 14-year-old boys to make a hit out of Weird Science, of course, but for the rest of the population, its pandering is strenuous enough to be cause for alarm. "
