I’m so tired I’m just losing my shit giggling to myself in the library over my failed Matlab program.

It’s supposed to model behavior about moving umbrellas from home–>work and work–>home over a number of days based on the probability it’s raining. But just, in my program, my umbrellas fucking vanished. Poof. Matrix is telling me they disappeared into thin air. They gone.

Except, under the metaphysical, existential, paradoxical condition that you travel from your house to your house, or from work to work, in which case they will rematerialize in varying numbers with set probabilities.

Sum game: you will never ever have an umbrella on hand, except in the case that you leave your departure point and realize while leaving that you forgot an umbrella, in which case anywhere between 1 and 4 of them will rematerialize and sit there waiting for you.

I FIGURED OUT WHAT WAS WRONG (it was me. i forgot the system doesn’t converge. i forgot about periodicity and just fed it a random big number forgetting that impacts where you’re located. sorted out)

Still, 9/10, would laugh at my own flawed mathematical creations posing unsettling existential queries again
