Meme of two women fighting while a man smokes from a pipe in the background.

The women fighting are labeled “mathematicians defining pi” and “engineers just using 3 because it’s within tolerance”

The man smoking is labeled “astrophysicists” and the pipe is labeled “pi = 1”

    There is no way of producing pi as a number. There aren’t enough atoms in the visible universe to write out pi in an 8 bit font. There aren’t enough atoms to write out pi in binary with atoms representing ones and empty space representing zeros
