Does 0.02^(365) REALLY make that big of a difference?

Does 0.02^(365) REALLY make that big of a difference?

what's supposed to be motivational about that?

The difference between 1.01^365 and 0.99^365 is not 0.02^365.

That is, a^n - b^n != (a - b)^n in general.

slacking off gives you shit, working hard gets you a lot.

i am very good at interpreting things, i scored a 138 iq in that other thread

wow i scored only 92, thanks for explaining
people are really smart here :D

no problem! with a bit elbow grease, you'll be like us in no time

Actually that's very motivational.

Yes but the moral of this story is if you do only half your shit for half the year, but complete everything the other half of the year. You can still accomplish something in its entirety, AND you can kinda chill for half the year. That's the way to do it, why bother being extordinary and 36xbetter than your peers when 1 and done is good enough?

What? No, [math]a^n - b^n ! \neq (a-b)^n[/math]. Why would you think that?

!= means not equal to

maybe he thought the exclamation point meant "VERY equal to..."

That's actually really cool

! means factorial... I swear to god you people...

>! means factorial
what's your point? != means not equal to

>Does 0.02^(365) REALLY make that big of a difference?

about 37.77

>very equal to
Spotted the programming virgin.

>1.01^365 - 0.99^365 = 0.2^365
5/7 I raged

>0.02^365
fuck me I can't type apparently

>using latex for easily written statements that don't require any special notation
nope

this is why the number 1 is bullshit, there's no continuum here
>1^lots = 1
>0.999^lots = 0
>1.001^lots = LOTS

It makes a good point about how progress is 1 small step at a time, however the scale is out of whack.

Even the most intelligent, educated and committed businesses and investors do not gain 20% returns annualized on the stock market consistently.

It is more like
[math]
1.0002^{365}=1.07572\\
0.9998^{365}=0.92959
[/math]

Also I'd take into account leap years.
[math]
1.0002^{365.25}=1.07578\\
0.9998^{365.25}=0.92955
[/math]

Brainlet.

>just run 100m 1% faster every day, bruh, after 1 year you will be able to run that distance in less than a second

1^lots = very 1

>reading comprehension

>yeah bro like, in this year I went from 250 lbs dead lift to 450 lbs, next year I'll be hitting 650!

Seems pretty continuous to me

Fun fact. You can't exert 101% of yourself. And 1^365 wouldn't be very exciting.

That should be 365.256
If the year is divisible by 4 it's a leap year, unless the year is also divisible by 100, except if it's also divisible by 400.
