   Know what drives me insane? When people say Pi is 3.141592654. Like, no. Go die.

      @minti One of my professors ballparked a calculation using 10 meters per second squared for gravity once.

      @minti I used to work with so many decimal places throughout every step of a problem in calculus class that I would sometimes get answers so precise they weren't within the book's acceptable range of "correct." Two decimal places . . . pfft!

         @slenderscribus Lol same. I use to always go AT LEAST 6 decimal places.

         @slenderscribus I never used two decimal places unless specifically asked to. I memorized 3.141592654 a very long time ago because that's what displayed on my calculator screen when I pressed pi.
