minus-squarepsycotica0@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up32·edit-23 months agoUnsure if… fuck it I’ll just blow it open. The context is that loge has a shortcut called “ln”, that is L N, said lawn, for “natural logarithm” (but in… Latin probably?) And so the joke is that “ln” looks like “in” in this context.
minus-squareKairos@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·3 months agoYes I know the joke. I was just pointing out that the “I” in “in” seems to be capitolized for no reason.
minus-squareEvkob (they/them)@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9arrow-down1·3 months ago…it’s not a capital “i”, it’s a lowercase L. Thus the joke; it’s “I’m LN” instead of the usual “I’m in”.
minus-squareKairos@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down1·3 months agoYes I know the joke. It’s an “I” in the subtitles I’ve watched the show twice over.
minus-squaresem@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·3 months agoMaybe they’re going by Emily Dickenson capitalization rules.
minus-squareiegod@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down2·3 months agoIt appears you do not, in fact, get the joke.
minus-squarehumanspiral@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·3 months agoIn several mathematical notation systems, the most important being APL/J, programming languages inspired to codify “tools of thought” notation as code, the log function is ln. 10&log is base 10 log.
minus-squareminkymunkey_7_7@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·3 months agoSo this is really a font joke, stupid fonts that make the I and l look the same. I always set my defaults to Tahoma for this reason.
