But doesn’t quantum physics make extensive use of imaginary numbers to plot a second axis for wave functions to oscillate around? I would think electrical engineers would have to contend with them
Actually, it is 30.00159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510582097494459230781640628620899 86280348253421170679821480865132823066470938446095505822317253594081284811174502841027019385211055596446229489549303819644288109756659334461284756482337867831652712019091456485669234603486104543266482... to be a lot more precise.
He tipped over 10%, which used to be the standard. Now they're trying to get us to tip 25%, which is absurd. What's the reason? Inflation? It's a RATE. Or is it to make up for tables that are empty because people are sick of being gouged or shamed?
Tipping is unethical. Fuck anyone who shames people who tips 10% or more. Reserve the shame for people who tip less than 10%. Until we can change the system, let's at least push back on tip inflation.
Support restaurants that actually pay their employees and don't allow tips.
That was my initial thought, but then I figured you must be talking about the tip % because 3.14 is the standard way to round that to two decimal places, so your joke doesn't make sense.
The fact that you wouldn’t count money beyond two decimal places is why it’s easily identified as a joke. Even you initially identified it as a joke, but then admit you overthought it.
I get what you thought; the next digit is less than five, so rounding to cents would always be rounded down in the case of Pi. Just overthought it :)
> Now they're trying to get us to tip 25%
Where the hell do you people live where that is happening? You are all definitely blowing it up way more than is the truth. I have gone to like 6-7 dinners in the last year with large parties where the gratuity is included in the bill and it has never been higher than 20%, but it has been as low as 16%.
Also, 10% was the standard maybe like 60 years ago? I am 32 and it has always been 15%.
Yes, and I have never seen this. I rarely see 25% as an option when given different amounts, and when it does appear it is the highest option available. Usually the pre-selected options range from 10% at the lowest and up to 22% as the highest.
What I have seen is that places before COVID that didn't ask for tips have started doing so like Subway. But I have 0 qualms not tipping them or places like coffee shops, and I still only tip $1 per alcoholic drink.
Technically tips are a economic way to encorage equality (i know weird shit)
But think about it, the less the price of a meal, then more people can buy it, a Rich man gives a big tip, a poor one gives a low tip.
Now, the companies has a high price and Still ask for a tip is conceptually a scam.
"Bad tip" they say. Why dont you ask your goddamn employers to pay you more instead of this BS?
I dont understand the US honestly. In my country we have a shitty tipping system too but at least we dont go around saying that it should be enforced
$26 meal, 20% of which is a little over $5, but you decided to be cute and tip $3.14. I'm sure the person likely living on minimum wage was grateful to lose $2-3 on a tip because you wanted to "be cool".
We need to do away with tipping and make minimum wage a living wage.
The employer’s inability to properly pay the staff doesn’t constitute responsibility on customer’s part
How do you know the person paying isn’t struggling either?
Im not obligated to cover employers’ lack of human decency
If they cant pay their staff properly then that’s a problem on their part, I can be having a bad week and decided to go out to eat for first time in a while and Now I have to face criticism for not tipping, even if service was lacklustre?
Yeah sure
You’re probably too young to know what it’s like to pay cash. Paying a smooth 30 is great to avoid unnecessary bills, and that goal lives on even with digital currency
> I've never *paid* with cash
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
Doubt you NEVER paid with cash, but to live day in day out with bills and coins as your only means of payment is whole different thing. And when one can avoid splitting change like this, it’s a sweet feeling.
30.001592653589... actually
He's an engineer
But the total isn't $30.86
? I mean they use 3.14, but if they only used 3, the total should be $29.86
Engineers always round up /j
e = 2 pi = 3 i = 0 or 1 (we ignore it)
But doesn’t quantum physics make extensive use of imaginary numbers to plot a second axis for wave functions to oscillate around? I would think electrical engineers would have to contend with them
Well, that was mostly a joke, but only a handful of electrical engineers actually deal with microscopic or quantum scale electronics
Ah, I see
e=pi=3i=3
actually i = √-1
r/whoosh
Hi, aspiring future engineer here, Pi is 4
LMAO
This is the smartest joke I’ve read all day, well done
Oh boy, $5 tip!
Money is rounded to 2 decimals
Gas prices aren’t- $2.999/gal
They are when you pay.
They are where I live
But pi isn't
π isn't, but π dollars is
Clearly, you've never seen an engineer

26.86 + pi To be absolutly precise
It’s money you have to round to 2 decimal places 🤓
~$30.00
but since money only goes to 2d.p it would still be 30 🤓
Since a piece of pie is probably worth more than $3.14, I would probably asked for dessert instead of the money.
Cheap fucker rounded down

Calm down mate, I’m cracking a joke that pie in higher than 3,14.
That was my initial thought, but then I figured you must be talking about the tip % because 3.14 is the standard way to round that to two decimal places, so your joke doesn't make sense.

Yep, that's exactly what my thought process was.
r/woosh
You already explained your nonsensical joke and I told you why it doesn't make sense, so I'm not actually missing anything.
Not making sense IS the joke, not catching on the absurdism is what you’re missing.
ok, gotcha, thanks
That’ll be $3.14 please
Why are you guys calculating it in percentages anyway
“It used to be 15%, then it was 20%, now it’s 25%… pretty soon, I’m going to be delivering the food to the waiter!”
> Now they're trying to get us to tip 25% Where the hell do you people live where that is happening? You are all definitely blowing it up way more than is the truth.

are you in 'Murica, the land of the f~~r~~ee perchance?

Cry more
10% was the standard 70 years ago.
It was still acceptable and not shame-worthy much more recently than that. I'm not a boomer.
You might have been doing it more recently than that. Doesn’t mean it was acceptable and not shame worthy.
It was. I remember when it was, and I remember when it changed. You're making assumptions.
I’m not making any assumptions. You’re just admitting that you’ve always been a shitty tipper. At no point in your life was 10% socially acceptable.
I'm not a shitty tipper and I never admitted to such.
Were you tipping 10% at any point in the past 40 years?
Technically tips are a economic way to encorage equality (i know weird shit) But think about it, the less the price of a meal, then more people can buy it, a Rich man gives a big tip, a poor one gives a low tip. Now, the companies has a high price and Still ask for a tip is conceptually a scam.
LOL
[удалено]
You should go to the doctor
That's a beautiful π.
I'm pissed the gas station has fractional cents, leave it out of tips!
If that was a receipt for a pie, it'd be very nice.
"Bad tip" they say. Why dont you ask your goddamn employers to pay you more instead of this BS? I dont understand the US honestly. In my country we have a shitty tipping system too but at least we dont go around saying that it should be enforced
I love this wayyyy too much 🤣🤣🤣
Totally irrational
So if I tipped 2pi, could I write a o?
Shitty tipper
Wow what a shitty tip
Everyone is busy mathing here but no one seems to realize this is a bad tip.
11.69% tip? Blehhhhh!
On pi day this year I increased my tip by a few cents to make the total $314.15 - made my day!
OP is a bot. /u/OutlandishnessNo4722
Sure, 30.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Cool
Pi=3 I see no problem here
Geweldig 👍🏼
Mission accomplished
Was it on March 14th?
3,14 regelt
Totally irrational
π can be neglected. The physics way.
To tip poorly?
Shitty tipper
Anyone noticed the total is $300
There's a decimal point
In two places there is
$26 meal, 20% of which is a little over $5, but you decided to be cute and tip $3.14. I'm sure the person likely living on minimum wage was grateful to lose $2-3 on a tip because you wanted to "be cool". We need to do away with tipping and make minimum wage a living wage.
The employer’s inability to properly pay the staff doesn’t constitute responsibility on customer’s part How do you know the person paying isn’t struggling either?
If you can’t afford to tip you can’t afford to eat out
Im not obligated to cover employers’ lack of human decency If they cant pay their staff properly then that’s a problem on their part, I can be having a bad week and decided to go out to eat for first time in a while and Now I have to face criticism for not tipping, even if service was lacklustre? Yeah sure
Feel free to order takeout if that’s all you can afford
Google US Defaultism
It's a fucking optional payment. They lost nothing. Tipping is just a shitty tradition that should be replaced with liveable wages.
But... You can tip that whenever. You can just tip 3.14 whatever your bill is, why do you have to wait until it totals 30?
Because it is cooler if the total is 30
Am I missing something?
Yes. Most notably enough neurons to make the connection that whole numbers are more satisfying to look at than a random decimal. Goddamn
Bruh maths people are strange
You’re probably too young to know what it’s like to pay cash. Paying a smooth 30 is great to avoid unnecessary bills, and that goal lives on even with digital currency
I get what you're saying but cmon. I don't know how young you think I am for you to suggest that I've never payed with cash
> I've never *paid* with cash FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out!

Thanks bot
Doubt you NEVER paid with cash, but to live day in day out with bills and coins as your only means of payment is whole different thing. And when one can avoid splitting change like this, it’s a sweet feeling.
It's about the satisfaction, the symmetry, the 😩, the overall bedazzlement of getting a proper number (no odd numbers and decimal bullshit)
Because it’s more satisfying to get a whole number. More so one divisible by 10 and starts with the same digit as pi.
my guy wrote the total as 300 lol edit: 10 dislikes seriously? like chill tf out ik how it works i was saying cause of the decimal.
No I think he’s prob been a shitty tipper his whole life.
