        How many sentences have to say you’re full of shit before you’re full of shit?

        Maths textbooks do all kinds of things you insist aren’t real. None of them have your back. The problem is you.

        • How many sentences have to say you’re full of shit before you’re full of shit?

          Chapters. You’re ignoring the whole rest of the chapter 🙄

          Maths textbooks do all kinds of things you insist aren’t real.

          says someone failing to give a single example of any

          None of them have your back. The problem is you

          Nope. The problem is you not reading the whole chapter 🙄

            The rest of the chapter also acts like (a+b)y is acceptable notation for factorization, which is why it appears in - for example - those two sentences concisely demonstrating you’re full of shit.

            Just like all the books that say a*b and a(b) and ab are the same thing.

              Which it isn’t in modern textbooks. You know this is a 1965 textbook, right? No, you probably don’t, given you only quoted 2 sentences

              those two sentences concisely demonstrating you’re full of shit

              Nope. The whole rest of the chapter proves you are full of shit, hence why you’ve refused to read any more 🙄

              Just like all the books that say a*b and a(b) and ab are the same thin

              It doesn’t. Once you read some more you’ll find that axb is explicitly excluded from the list of Product notations

                • The textbook in question has URLs on every page

                  says person who still can’t link to, or say which page, this supposed proof is on 🙄

                  How modern is modern enough, to admit you’re full of shit?

                  says person who still hasn’t managed to link to a specific page 🙄

                    Follow link, Ctrl+F “page”, learn reading comprehension.

                    You don’t get to sneer at people for not reading all of every math textbook ever and then act fucking illiterate when people point to a comment that explicitly says “read this thing from this page, it says you’re full of shit.”
