This is probably for a daycare/after school care.

[–] Idreamofcheesy@lemmy.world 16 points 4 weeks ago (3 children)

Yeah and a killjoy one. 6/7 isn't hurting anyone.

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 12 points 4 weeks ago

Psychic damage is real. The teacher is just trying to protect what little sanity she has left.

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 11 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

That still means 14.3% is.

Fun fact: decimal representations of sevenths follow a repeating pattern of the same 6 digits in the same order, from a different starting point:

1/7: 0.142857142857...
2/7: 0.285714285714...
3/7: 0.428571...
4/7: 0.571428...
5/7: 0.714285...
6/7: 0.857142...

Something similar happens with 13ths, but there are two different sets of six repeating digits, with 1, 3, 4, 9, 10, and 12 (thirteenths) using one set of digits (769230) and 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 11 using the other (153846). Note the mirrored pattern of numerators here: 1_34______9A_C (using hex-like letters to represent digits over 9) and _2__5678__B_. There's probably a great reason for that but it hasn't occurred to me, and I've never looked it up.

I also greatly enjoy that this happens with the two numbers most associated with luck, 7 and 13.

Took me way too long to realize you meant the complement of 6/7 as in 6/7 + 1/7 = 1

[–] vrek@programming.dev 5 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (3 children)

I'm getting old, what is 6/7?

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 11 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

It's a meme where you say "6 7", optionally with a hand motion like you're weighing something

There's no meaning. That is the full context. Any situation where you do any part of the meme is a valid use of the meme

And that's why I personally find it uniquely annoying

[–] vrek@programming.dev 1 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Ah like "six on one hand and half a dozen on the other" but purposely with bad math?

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 3 points 4 weeks ago

No, see that has meaning... This doesn't. No information is contained in 6 7, there is no concept or reference or anything to it

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

No, you're thinking too much into it. The point of "six seven" is that it's meaningless.

[–] vrek@programming.dev 1 points 4 weeks ago

Like I said on the response it's like six on one hand half a dozen on the other just with poor math skills

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Dumb thing kids say to annoy people.

[–] vrek@programming.dev 1 points 4 weeks ago

Yeah I get that but it's has some meaning. Like it could be the number of some sport star or a reference to some show with a hero team with 67 in the name or could be even darker like with the number 88...

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 8 points 4 weeks ago

You mean the Village People lied and it's not actually fun to stay at the YMCA?

I guess you aren't allowed to discuss any games made between 2005 and 2010.
