Doing some SKI combinator calculus, because why not, right?
@dotjrich wow I love the form factor of that portable computer! Does it have a serial port?
@thomasfuchs what's wrong with Github and AI BTW?

@windowsdocs I'm sure you're in fire 🔥 from all the host stuff you're about to release at Ignite!

I hope you'll bring to GA in Azure Openai Service all the latest OpenAI announcements from this week!

@dm319 Indeed! Coming from a 48SX, I also struggle a bit with 4 level RPN stack.
In RPL models, like the 28S, the stack is infinite (up to memory limit). Same with the 48S/G and 50G in that regard.
@loudscotsbloke wow that IMP16P looks amazing...

You can do pretty cool stuff with a pinwheel calculator. Of course +, -, * and / 😂, but not only!

Here I computed 6 significant digits of square root of 2 💪

I even managed to achieve 10 significant digits with some tricks 👏👏

You never know, better be prepared for a world without electricity 🤔

At the beginning of last century, this is what they had to make calculations. This Original-Odhner Model 127 pinwheel mechanical calculator was built in 1952 in Sweden 🇸🇪, but the design dates from 1875.

@thierer I also love mine although it has a power problem and eats the batteries (it draws too much power and batteries will die in it in a couple of days.... I have to leave the batteries out). Too bad
