Notice there is only 1 full headline (from /r/NoStupidQuestions) visible, it doesn’t even show the full post. There are 3 of those “trending” boxes but only 2 of those even fit their headlines because they are like 3 words long, they cut off anything longer including the description

I originally became addicted to Reddit because of how streamlined it was to skim dozens of headlines and pick from lots of content, seems they have decided content is not something they want to provide anymore :/

    That part’s real - not for 0.999 but for 0.999… (repeating). The classic proof goes:

    Let x = 0.999999…

    Then multiply both sides by 10. You now have:

    10x = 9.999999…

    Now subtract the first equation from the second equation. You get:

    10x - x = 9.999999… - 0.999999…

    9x = 9

    Then divide by 9 to complete the proof:

    x = 1

      That’s a neat little proof, TIL.
