Could someone explain it to me?
- chacha102 17y agoIt's a Coming Soon Page! How complicated could it be! clicks Umm ... yeah... Could someone explain it to me too?

- thaumaturgy 17y agod/dt is the standard mathematical representation for rate of change. My guess was "Change the world", and judging by the alt text for the image, I was close: "Changing the world". It's kinda neat.
- alex_c 17y agoWouldn't it be "the rate at which our world is changing", or something similar? Maybe I'm too literal-minded.
- jey 17y agoLet's pray that d(world)/dt > 0.
- albertzeyer 17y agoI guess it's highly multidimensional, so you cannot really compare it to a real number. But assuming that it is normed, you can say |d(world)/dt| > 0. Or at least you can say d(world)/dt ≠ 0. And I guess you are right there. Or maybe, if the norm is something like "goodness", we hopefully can say d(|world|)/dt > 0.
- wwortiz 17y agoIf it's constant at least we don't have to worry about 2012.
- dhotson 17y agoIt's a mathematical idiom common in calculus. For example dx/dt is usually read as "change in x over time". d stands for delta, which means difference or change. .. so you'd read that page roughly as "change in world over time".
