This is why i hang out with fellow programmers, many of use have infaited egos, but it makes for extreamly intelegent conversation. So, anyone here a flatlander?

@xander314

Oh of course, after the third test that I did that they caught on. They asked why I was doing it to which I responded with a childish "Doing what?"

Ah, to be young and brash. Not saying I'm neither of those now, but I'm not young enough to get away with the brashness anymore :P

[Disch]

too many xanders

Is Xander some kind of pop culture reference that I don't recognize?

[Cheraphy]

For me it's short for Alexander.

Likewise. I joined as xander and noticed xander333. Then Seraph made the decision to join our ranks. Nothing more than that. ;)

That could mean a number of things, AFAIK. What do you mean by this?

[xander333]

If I may ask, why 314? and 337 for sera?

[anonymous23323124]

Well I was trying to choose a Flickr name, and Xander was taken. So then I thought. "Hmmmm.... pi". And there you go. 314 are the first three digits of Pi ;)

Why 333?

[m4ster r0shi]

Indeed, why 333? Also, why not 1337 instead of just 337?

[anonymous23323124]

@roshi Oh? What is the significance of 1337/337?

[m4ster r0shi]

1337 means -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet I don't know what 337 means.

[xander333]

leeeeet 1337 gangstahh XD
3 is my favorite number, so 3 3's ^^

[anonymous23323124]

Ah. Don't join two sites with that alias, or you'll be a satanist ;)

[Cheraphy]

I wanted to stick with the 3 digit suffix theme we had going.

[anonymous23323124]

Lol, that still gives you 998 choices :P 337 was random?

[Cheraphy]

Of course not! it's a substring of 1337!

I meant, does anybody like thinking about dimensions?

[anonymous23323124]

As in higher dimensions: quantum theory, brane theory etc?

[lfnunley]

as in thinking about hypercubes and hypertoruses

[anonymous23323124]

Lol ok. I haven't studied much topology...
