minus-squarefrezik@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 年前Wouldn’t noise in the circuit mean it’d only be reliable to certain level of precision, anyway?
minus-squareChadus_Maximus@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-21 年前I mean, every irrational number used in computation is reliable to a certain level of precision. Just because the current (heh) methods aren’t precise enough doesn’t mean they’ll never be.
