Crossposts might be annoying, because

• essentially they are the "repost" feature of lemmy. And repeats might be low quality spam, because you have to look at the source, how often it was reposted already, etc.
• crossposts might seem like a cry for unwarranted attention, but they might be necessary in a fractured federated system like Lemmy …

Or do you not care when realizing "this is a crosspost"?

3 "high IQ meme guys" inhabit widely different body-heights on a normal distribution, which uses the Body height as the sample space.

Body Height is normally distributed. https://www.johndcook.com/blog/mixture_distribution/ https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:K%C3%B6rpergr%C3%B6%C3%9Fe.png

The joke: IQ and Body-Height are unrelated, but both IQ and body height follow the normal distribution: IQ by definition and body height does so by empirically measuring it (since random variables that control body height are summed up to arrive at the outcome).

Random thought on magic squares:

If I view the smallest possible non-trivial magic square

2 7 6
9 5 1
4 3 8

since its rows and diagnoals sum up to 2+5+8 = 2+7+6 = 4+5+6 = 2+9+4 = … = 15

Lets view it as a 3x3 Matrix, its determinant is Δ = -360 . Its inverse:

-37/360 19/180 23/360
17/90 1/45 -13/90
-7/360 -11/180 53/360

note how this is a magic square, rows and diagonals sum up to 1/15.

Now if you are really bored (I can not do this): proof that for any non trivial magic squares the inverse …

• exists (i.e. every non-trivial magic square has an inverse)
• is a magic square.
