- jeffbee 1y agoSo you're saying it belongs under divinity?
- gscott 1y agoThe ghost wasn't holy
- wahnfrieden 1y agoIt was some regular dead dude’s ghost not god
- drivebyhooting 1y agoThat’s funny. But when Ramanujan says 1 + 2 + 3 + … = -1/12 because god told him we accept that as a reasonable explanation.
- davorak 1y ago>But when Ramanujan says 1 + 2 + 3 + … = -1/12 because god told him we accept that as a reasonable explanation. What community accepts that as reasonable explanation?
- drivebyhooting 1y agoI think Ramanujan’s results attained acclaim and notoriety long before rigorous proofs were discovered. They came to him from God. So apparently divine inspiration can indeed be valuable. Who is to say a Holy Ghost couldn’t divulge secrets of medicine to an anointed prophet.
- wahnfrieden 1y agoIf you believe in God, it’s blasphemous to suggest the chiropractic ghost was divine or holy. It was the ghost of a regular man.
- cwillu 1y ago1 + 2 + 3 + … = -1/12 in the sense that you can factor out the divergence in a well-defined way, and the remainder is -1/12, not 0. Anybody glossing over that divergence is just baiting you, usually for advertising revenue.
