"Tau is transcendental. 0.5 isn't." It's definitely a value judgment. But the value judgment is: Is the radius or the diameter more fundamental to a circle?

- BlueTemplar 3y agoAs the Tau manifesto points out, tau/4 = pi/2 = lambda is pretty fundamental too ! (The "orthogonality constant" ?)
- garbagecoder 3y agoGeometry isn't the only application of pi. Nor is the geometric interpretation the only way to determine what is "fundamental." Why not use Darians? http://proper-pi-manifesto.com http://proper-pi-manifesto.com
