The decimals '0.999...' and '1' refer to the real numbers that are equivalence classes of Cauchy sequences of rational numbers (0.9, 0.99, 0.999,...) and (1, 1, 1,...) with respect to the relation R: (aRb) <=> (lim(a_n-b_n) as n->inf, where a_n and b_n are the nth elements of sequences a and b, respectively).
For a = (1, 1, 1,...) and b = (0.9, 0.99, 0.999,...) we have lim(a_n-b_n) as n->inf = lim(1-sum(9/10^k) for k from 1 to n) as n->inf = lim(1/10^n) as n->inf = 0. That means that (1, 1, 1,...)R(0.9, 0.99, 0.999,...), i.e. that these sequences belong to the same equivalence class of Cauchy sequences of rational numbers with respect to R. In other words, the decimals '0.999...' and '1' refer to the same real number. QED.
He was already 98% shit on Oct 6....... then he went and did a genocide
CNN is Russian propaganda.
The alternatives are to either have a full supply chain of all things your people need to live
Unless we are dealing with a city-state, a part of that supply chain can be situated in other cities/areas of the country. Apparently, though, we are dealing with a city-state (with no prior city), according to the responses that I am getting.
and pay them with goods
Except no (as in, not generally)? The workers get paid regardless of whether or not they are assigned on projects, and they use the money to buy goods and services from the state. What is the significance of paying them specifically with goods in this context?
My issues are/were with the fact that you can't requisition this stuff from elsewhere under your state. Apparently, there are, indeed, no other cities in your country, from what I gather.
Until you have a construction company in your country you are using foreign resources and labor and must pay for them
Which implies that there are no other cities in your country.
Another person has explained to me that that is, apparently, the case or something similar to that is.
and how one of Khrushchev's more notably hair-brained and disastrous reforms
Have you heard of Liberman, by the way?
His reforms were truly worthy of the name.
Get him to spill all the beans
This place needs legume police so that people will stop spilling beans all over the floor.
However, why make all of the relevant actions cost money?
A neighboring country, either Soviet or Western depending on the currency you use for this. Because you don't have local construction coordinating offices and vehicle depots yet, so you're relying on outside help.
Which has the silly implication that there are no other cities under your state, or your state has no industry for producing construction materials and educating construction workers domestically outside of this specific city.
You do, but they want compensation
Well, the workers aren't going to go wageless/salariless regardless of whether or not they are working on the project, and I don't think that there even were contract workers in the USSR.
You would have to pay the relevant state for this sort of deal, though.
Actually, you know what? Given the time period it defaults to (starting in 1959), I'm just gonna blame Khrushchev
You're running an independent border republic roughly the size of something like Andorra, maybe a little bigger. Everything outside your borders is foreign, even the Soviets
How does this work? Where am I getting the initial funding? Who am I? Who authorised this? What is this madness?
When you buy buildings you are buying the resources
From where?
If you are requisitioning resources within the country, i.e. you are requisitioning them from another part of the state, it makes no sense to have them cost money.
If you are requisitioning them from abroad, then it should be made clearer that your state can't spare any resources for the city, I think. Albeit, I guess, you are already getting all of the explicit stuff from abroad.
having them shipped in
The people who work on transporting resources within the country are not going to not be paid if they aren't working on these projects, either. Where does this money go?
and having foreign contract workers come in with that to actually build it for you using their equipment
Firstly, why does your state not have construction workers?
Secondly, why can't you requisition the workers from the USSR or another planned economy?
It may be a game setting to enable a more complicated build option (so if you're still in the tutorial campaign this may be disabled...
Yeah, I have only glanced at the tutorial.
and you need to be sourcing all of those things from somewhere
Why can't you source it from your own state? Why are your options limited to either producing the resources within the city, or trading internationally with the USSR or, bleh, the western powers?
No, seriously, why do they? It's not like the construction workers don't get paid their wages if they aren't given such projects, and, unless you are buying the resources from overseas, the only cost for the construction materials for the state is wages/salaries of the workers who are involved in the relevant processes.
Am I being swindled?
Reading theory. Probability theory.
side note, does anyone else find it gross that there is this trope that "women" (usually underage) are treated like they're trying to trick you or tempt you in some way? I really hate the whole "thot" shtick
You put into words my issues with stuff like that.
Where will you be when Hexbear is kil?
Comrades, I urge you all to read at least a bit every day. Treat it as a work-out in a library. Go to bed every day a better version of yourselves than you did yesterday.
FNV is built on the chassis of a game with awful mechanics. It's actual strong point is the narrative. FNV might as well have been a point-and-click adventure, I'd argue.
Similarly, Avowed will have similar mechanics to Skyrim, FNV, Outer Worlds, etc. In terms of gameplay, it will be the same Bethesda slop. The question is whether or not it will have the narrative to make it stand out.
I couldn't get into PoE1, either.
I found myself more engrossed in PoE2 than in Tyranny, tbh.
I will let the shoes in, but without the libs.
Basically the title.
Also, in case somebody could answer the question: is it possible to enable the Cube effect in a Virtualbox machine? I already have kdeplasma-addons
, qt6-quick3d
and qt6-quick3dphysics
installed but I have no Cube effect option in window effects.
Not sure if this is the right comm to ask in, but I have been hearing people praise GNOME lately, which contradicts my prior experience with GNOME in live environments a few years ago.
I'd like to ask, what is the appeal of this DE compared to KDE?
Working inside a VirtualBox virtual machine. Installed Arch Linux using the Archinstall method. Chose KDE as the DE and SDDM as the greeting screen.
Managed to log in once, but after adding a language and rebooting, I didn't seem to be able to change the keyboard layout, making entering the correct password impossible. I have tried looking up how to switch the keyboard layout, but am coming up with nothing. What is the key combination to change the keyboard layout in SDDM?
Setting up a different virtual machine now.
