...

Umm... no.

 

[Elburzito]

I like pie but not pi.

In Germany (and other countries), March 14 will be referred to as "14.3." (as in "the 14th day in March").

For me, there is no "ultimate" pi day, ever.

On March 14, 2015, at 9:26:53, it is a very special time. Why? Because at that exact time, it's 3/14/15, 9:26:53. That's right, it's pi.

Is this worthy of epic parties?

Only if you're using the American dating order system, which not many countries use.

Also putting the time after the date is purely arbitrary, if you put the time before the date it is no longer pi.

For "historically significant alignment" purposes it would be more logical to express the exact time in numerically sequential values, which would make the time 2015:3:14:9:26:53, or if you want to flip it the other way 53:26:9:14:3:2015, neither of which are pi.

3.141592653589793238462 <-- how much I have memorized

Lol, 3.14 is about the extent of it for me, the calculator knows the rest.

I like it, if the retards get 4/20, the nerds should have pie.

Seeing that Pi is infinite to billions of decimal places with no repeating sequences, surely it's possible every day we have a Pi moment...?

Indeed the fact that every sequence possible will show up in the decimals of &#960; at some point gives us a probability of (1-(1/Inf)) that every single moment in time is represented within the decimals of &#960;, giving us a whole lot of reasons for parties.

However, the fact that this time it is the starting string makes us more susceptible to this particular occurence.

Ironic that the 'Pi' date only occurs when you use the date order that is THE LEAST LOGICAL mathematically. For an actually sensible and logical way of writing the date, it should be 'Day-Month-Year' which gives 14/03/2015, so we don't get Pi then. So basically, it's completely unremarkable and above all, pretty damn silly.

I'm just nerdy enough to say yes. When's e ? 2.71828&#8201;18284&#8201;59045&#8201;23536

 

[ProfessorLayton]

Someone's got too much time on their hands... I never noticed that. I guess I'll wear my pi shirt if it still fits me but no parties. Those parties would be filled with nerds like me who actually own a shirt with pi on it.

 

[rokkolpo]

if ur a geek and consider yourself uber1337.

and only uber1337.

 

[Macgyvercas]

Oh, AWESOME!!!

I am so having a party then!

Not in Europe it isn't, in fact we'll never hit that point.

lol nice one man

 

[Pimppeter2]

Yes, I will bring the pie

Ba dum tish

 

[orangebandguy]

Actually Pi has some 800 decimals or something but i don't really care since its just a number people decided to use to calculate a circle. No one really likes mathematics so i doubt there will be parties.

I'm with this guy, nothing enjoyable has ever come out of calculating a radius or circumference.

Yeah we do our dates more simple way, day/month/year

 

[Tartarga]

I would totally celebrate that. To bad were supposed to die in 2012 twelve.

 

[Harlemura]

did you know PIE backwards is 3.14?
interesting...

I find this fact much more interesting than the thread's fact.

 

[Pingieking]

People don't appreciate how awesome that is.

Indeed. PI PARTY!!! WHOO!

We're also planning parties for June 6, 2026 and May 10, 2045. Quantum parties FTW! (for those who aren't nerdy enough, those are the values of h and h-bar)
