No, it's a g

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pronounced “g” or “g”?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well g is the 7th letter sooo

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The person who created "g" said it's pronounced "g" so that's the correct answer.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

At the very least it's not incorrect.

And proud!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

And rightfully so!

I heard “g” was created at around the same time in two different parts of the world. One of them claims it to be pronounced “g” and the other claims it to be pronounced “g.”

8 ± 2 for your sake then.

So, tolerance is the answer 🤔

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

You damn right. Well, almost... Tolerance is the lesson.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Some pretty loosy goosy tolerances right here

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Well, that's what the spec called for.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Tolerance ?

"You are technically correct, the best kind of correct"

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I dunno guys....

It's a "g"...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I'm pretty sure it's a ∂ lying on its front.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

And then they went and had some 69 fun.

x^2 - 15 x + 36

[–] mattd 9 points 1 year ago

I think it’s x ² - 15x + 54 = 0

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

The = 0 is important
