Happy Tau Day

OK, happy day!

Tau is good.
But I disagree with the base premise. Quote:

If you can name the Tau, it isn't the Tau. ;)
This is awesome; I celebrate all geek holidays. |

I think the article misprinted that. |
I agree with PF, the diameter of a circle is starkly visually defined by it crashing into, but not beyond, the circumference. A radius requires the further action of discovering and using the centre of the circle.
This is like someone claiming the half inch is a better general unit of measure because there would be a smaller consistent rounding error. If this were the case, then 100/254th of an inch would be better. We could call it a centimeter. |
Yeah, but then our feet would be off.
|
And . . .?
Your pint and gallon are inconsistent with the rest of the world, so why not foot as well? |
I've had some passing thoughts about that too. ;)
|
You passed those thoughts as well?

When is "Omega Day?"
