How to tell when you've pissed off an engineer

I think the amount is $533.80.

(I've seen my dad do shit like this )

That is just VICIOUSLY FUNNY!

I wanna use that for my medical bills LOL

Pretty funny, actually. Verizon as assholes anyway, but I do love their commercial DSL.

Pmsl!!!

I make the amount is $2 + 1/10 cent.

The famous formula in the check (with the letter "e" in it) is considered one of the most profound in all of mathematics, discovered by Euler. Its value is uqual to exactly 1.

It's usually shown as


eiΠ-1 = 0

where the i and pi symbols appear as superscripts. It unites the five most important numbers in arithmeatic (e, pi, i, 1, and 0).

The other part, with the Σ (sigma), is also equal to one. It's simply the result of the infinite sum 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16... etc.

It was the cause of much confusion in Greek times, where Zeno would confound his contemporaries with paradoxes of the infinitessimal. In fact it wasn't really until Newton and Leibnitz's calculus that mathematicians could deal happliy with infinite sums such as this.

if I had had a mouthful of tea at the exact moment I read that ----

it really is too funny...

oh shut up.... LOL show off

cant do formula math fer shit!

Ahhh, engineers! God bless 'em; we can't live without 'em but they are, indubitably, a different breed o' cat.

I note that the check probably wasn't accepted (or paid by the bank) since it has not been encoded with the amount (there isn't any MICR [magnetic ink character recognition]) in the lower right corner. I suspect (but do not know) that either the Virginia Uniform Commercial Code, the Comptroller of The Currency, or The Federal Reserve prescribe standards that make a check negotiable (or not, as the case may be).

The obviously enraged fellow probably ended up having to write a new check to replace this one.

Snerk. Hilarious!

I just would like to have been a fly on the wall when the guy who opened the check presented it to his supervisor.

 

[SeaCat]

Oh that is too good. My Father has been known to do things like that every now and then. Every time he does he gets results of one kind or another.

I hate to out geek you, but e^(i*pi) is equal to -1. So the check is for 0.2 cents. e^(i*x) = cos(x)+i*sin(x), in this case x=pi, and cos(pi)=-1.

So it's 0.002-1+1=.002

OMG!!! having heart palpitations... just too many "smarty" people in one place... might need to recline and rest a spell... care to join me???

I can imagine they billed the guy for a two cent discrepancy and when he ignored it got a 3rd letter saying they were sending his account to collections. And he's making steady, good faith payments.
