Happy Pi Day 2006! :D
I'm a bit late, since it was yesterday but anyway: 14 March was the National Pi Day, because it's written like 3/14.
Anyone knew about this before?
Specially for Pi Day: 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510582097494459230781640628620899862803482534211706...
Take a look at http://oldweb.cecm.sfu.ca/projects/ISC/ ... i10000.txt - having so much spare time is just sick

You only get to learn 15 of them (I did'nt yet so I don't know, a friend of mine knows 20), but the real pi number is infinite - tough they did found it until 400 billion numbers after the comma allready!Francesco wrote:Hey, the PI number is actually *that* long?
What if we had to fix it in memory, and to repeat it in front of the blackboard during an interrogation!
Really? I admire your memory!
I usually have to ask people to repeat me their names - not only at the first meeting, even people that I meet once in a month or so - and if I see someone very rarely (once in a year) there is also the risk that I forget their face
But it doesn't happen with all people, and for other things I've got a really sharp memory... seems like a selective memory that applies a filter to the incoming data... I think I need a revision by a very skilled hardware technician, maybe also an upgrade

Speaking of PI... there's actually a swedish domain (the longest swedish domain name) with a bunch of pi decimals...
http://www.1415926535897932384626433832 ... 494459.se/
Don't ask me why they chose that domain... the content doesn't seem to be related to pi at all..

If this would mean having also the same skills, I double-sign forHolger wrote:Oh, well, I have the same problems...
@Zomis: hey, just seen your new avatar, nice beard!
Mine is so sparse that going from an hair to another takes half an hour of bicycle
It's not a joke
Something like "const == (PI * hair) / POW(inch, 2)"
Anyway, by the way, have fun!

I updated the picture on my server, and the artsoft server links to that, so an updating of the cache could be useful for you
Reading... ... ? ... F5 ... ........... D'oh
I got tricked
By the way, I was logging on to post this idea:
The link above could be written something like this
"http://www." + mid(PIstring, 2, 62) + ".se"
I don't know if this could be useful though...

I just got a mail from the owner of the site I was trying to refer to, seems like most medieas got it wrong...
For some reason, http://3.141592653589793238462643383279 ... 494459.se/ should be the correct adress... but now it seems like those URLs are pointing to the same site... but last time I checked the content didn't match at all what it is now...
