Problem, Hikari?

The perfect illustration of how computer scientists react to algorithm efficiency! On the left, Fry's laser-focused intensity when hearing "O(n²)" represents that moment of pure panic when you realize your code will crawl to a halt with large datasets. Meanwhile, on the right, the same information has him looking utterly defeated—the classic "my program is going to take until the heat death of the universe to finish" expression. In computer science, the difference between a fast algorithm and an O(n²) one is basically the difference between "coffee break" and "maybe I should consider a new career." Quadratic time complexity: where dreams of real-time processing go to die!

The scientific calculator civil war has begun! Someone's circled all the advanced function buttons—you know, the ones that separate the math wizards from the "I just need to add these numbers" crowd. The punchline? "These people vote." Translation: The same folks who think logarithms and trigonometry are useless are making decisions about our future! Meanwhile, engineers are having heart palpitations just looking at this mathematical blasphemy. Fun fact: Those "useless" buttons helped us build rockets, design computers, and analyze quantum physics. But sure, who needs x² when you've got fingers to count on, right? *twitch*

Engineers discovering increasingly better approximations of π is like watching someone have a mathematical orgasm. First, they're mildly impressed with π itself. Then they discover 22/7 (≈3.14286) and get more excited. But when they find out about 21/7 (=3), their minds absolutely explode because suddenly math becomes suspiciously convenient. Nothing gets an engineer more hot and bothered than when a complex number simplifies to something ridiculously easy. It's basically mathematical foreplay.

The historical glow-up of π calculations is SENDING ME! 🤣 From Babylonians with their "eh, 3 is close enough" energy to Ramanujan dropping that mind-melting formula that looks like it could calculate the coordinates to another dimension! The progression perfectly matches the boats too - from paper origami to LITERAL FLOATING CASTLE. Math nerds throughout history were like "I can make π more accurate" and then proceeded to create increasingly unhinged formulas. My favorite is Zu Chongzhi's 355/113 approximation - surprisingly accurate at 3.1415929... when π is 3.1415926... That's getting π correct to 6 decimal places with just a simple fraction! Meanwhile, modern mathematicians are calculating π to trillions of digits just because they can. The ultimate flex in the mathematical universe!

The scientific knowledge hierarchy in its natural habitat! Math and logic form the foundation (because numbers don't lie, they just make you cry during exams). Physics builds on that foundation with its "I can explain everything with equations" energy. Chemistry sits on physics because it's basically just spicy physics with more explosions. Biology perches on top like "I'll take all that complexity and add LIVING THINGS to the mix." Meanwhile, robotics and programming are over in their own little tower like the cool kids who actually make money after graduation.
