Some people believe that god put a special mensage inside the PI number for us. Others believe we can using upcoming GPUs power to calculate the value of PI with enough precision to find this message. Then NV30 will help us find god

I am going to sleep now. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day without all this N...

 

[martrox]

Luna: Did you realize that God spelled backwards is Dog?
Miles Monroe: Yes......push the car.....*


So, does this mean the NV30 is a dog?

[Crusher]

God is hidden in there? Is that one of those pictures that you have to stare at for a long time to see the hidden image?

hrmm...

oh, there it is.

OMFG! IT'S BILLY DEE WILLIAMS!

 

[Matt Burris]

Wrong, it's a sailboat......... (Mallrats reference)

 

[bdmosky]

Well, I for one know that the NV30 will be on-time and anyone who says otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about....


Just kiddin'... Not really meant to open another debate here.

 

[TheMightyPuck]

I think the word we're looking for here, and with respect to most nv30 threads, is kabbalistic, or maybe just ballistic

Well, I'm quite certain that the release date of NV30 can be found in the decimals of pi. In fact you can put that a bit stronger. Let's say that we design a way to convert a real number to an infinite stream of bytes. Write the fractional part in binary form, and group it in bytes.

If you take a reandom real number (with the source giving uniformly distributed real numbers over some interval), then the probability that the design of NV30 (including all design documents) is somewhere in the byte-converted form of the real number is ... 1.

Yep, that's right, and it can be mathematically proven. (Note though that probability=1 isn't the same as "it always happen".)

So I would say that most likely, the full design of NV30 can be found in the byte-converted decimals of pi.

Oh how wonderful math is, and how amazingly difficult it is to realy get a grasp of what "infinite" means.

Hmmmm...PIE!!!!

This topic has already got silly, so I don't think I'm too out of order to post this

(Strangly appropriate giving the front page title at the moment.)

 

[BenM]

I think the question on everyone's mind though: Has the pi "baked out" yet?????

 

[phynicle]

call me strange but i see a double helix in the pi number
