Jesus, why’d you have to bring floating point and machine precision into the conversation? Now I won’t sleep. And the nightmares will be worse than before.

A boolean variable?

My gender is e, which can be represented by neither integers nor floating points.

Can it be expressed or represented approximately in IEEE-754 form?
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from Rentlar@lemmy.ca
Only approximated, never truly represented 😞

Unless your encoding has a special value that, by definition is euler’s constant :p

Good point. Specifically code point U+2107 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ℇ

Ah so ur gender can be represented in UTF 8.

No taxation without approximation!

Everything can be represented approximatively.
e = π = 3

Better than having your gender datatype being a Bobool3ol and evaluating to “Tru(🍒🎂🍒)lse”.

I’ve been thinking about this now and again. IMO gender, if one insists on tracking it at all (which I mostly find counterproductive), would need to be a vector / tuple of floating-point values. The components would be something like:

Also genes is only half of it. Expression of genes is another, complicated story.

Gender Identity, now with linear algebra. Those 3b1b videos are going to be super useful, but not in the way the author intended.
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from shininghero@pawb.social
A good way would be to create as many variables as possible that map anything relevant, genes, upbringing, sexual and gender expression, etc., and then doing a PCA to reduce the defining vector to as few elements as possible.
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from Bumblefumble@lemm.ee
I like how you think but I’m not sure if that alone will hold water. A variable can vary wildly even though it’s not very relevant to the property you’re interested in, and PCA would consider such a variable to be very significant. Perhaps a neural network could find a latent space. But ideally we want the components to have some intuitive meaning for humans.

These are all measurable except 4

In how far does gender change in your hypothetical metric with transition. If I take hormones for example, I would influence this metric.
Another confusing point would be how you try tracking gender, but having a gender identity value inside the metric. How would you even track this gender then?
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from flora_explora@beehaw.org
All of these are measurable. I’m not sure what’s the source of your confusion. Yes the terminology becomes a bit ambiguous unless we make up a new word/term but gender identity is just one dimension of the tuple. It can be measured with a standardized questionnaire.

any “n-bit value” fails to model nontermination. clearly a pointed dCPO.

As it is not stable I’d go with a database.
Sqlite.

There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don’t.

ah I see, you are the 10th kind!
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Regardless of what base you’re using, 10 is always the nth number. In base 10 (normal numbers), 10 is 10th. In base 2 it is the 2nd.
In base 16 (hexadecimal) it is the 16th.
The original joke is “there are 10 kinds of people, those who understand binary and those who don’t l” because 10 in binary is 2 in base 10. But they’re pointing out that a similar joke works for all bases of numbers.

I love that you felt like this needed explaining - thanks!

Some of us would argue 10 is the n+1 th number because zero comes first. Otherwise you’re just throwing a new digit into the mix when you get to 10.

literally discussed with my friends the other day that gender is like a vector in Hilbert space

I don’t think so, because with wbits the intermediate values can be non binary but the end result must be binary when read.

So many other things are also non-binary, but people insist that not being 100% on their side means you’re a million percent on the extreme opposite hateful wrong side.

Absolutely. My baseline is that I want everyone to be treated equally and with respect. I want everyone have the same protections from the government and everyone to be allowed to be and to love whoever they want.
Past that, it gets into minutia I just can’t get on board with and it’s hurting the left as a whole because people are trying to force language and thought policing on people, which I don’t like, it’s authoritarian, and I think it’s a losing strategy.

It’s been said that indecisiveness and perfectionism are liberal weaknesses, and decisiveness and being willing to ignore imperfections for the sake of the team are conservative strengths. I think Michael Moore put it best… Liberals say, “What should we do about dinner? I don’t know… do you want to go out? I dunno, do you? Well, if you do. Okay, where should we go? I dunno, where do you wanna go?” A conservative slams his hand on the table and says, “Get in the car, we’re goin’ to the Sizzler!”
