A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

If you squint hard enough, the capital letter pi (Π) looks like half a circle.

If you don't squint, it looks like a table. Maybe whoever chose it hadn't had lunch yet.
[insert pie joke here]
What is this Cunningham's law?
Pi is not half the circumference. It's how many times the diameter fits into the circumference.
It is half of the circumference, multiplied by the radius, of course.
That's not half the circumference then is it???
Now you're just being silly.
