No, pie are round
Math geeks on FR flame away.
It is not an infinite number. It has a finite value. It just has an infinite number of digits.
I’ll happily go for a good “Blue Berry” or “Pumpkin Chocolate Chip”.
>>I will never understand, “pi 3.14”.
Had Indiana Bill No. 246 passed, pi would have been 3.2 if that’s easier for you.
Mathematician: Pi r squared
Baker: No! Pie are round, cake are square!
In Alaska, where it gets very cold, pi is only 3.00.
As you know, everything shrinks in the cold.
They call it Eskimo pi.
A mathematician, a physicist, and an engineer are all given identical
rubber balls and told to find the volume. They are given anything they
want to measure it, and have all the time they need.
The mathematician
pulls out a measuring tape and records the circumference. He then
divides by two times pi to get the radius, cubes that, multiplies by pi
again, and then multiplies by four-thirds and thereby calculates the
volume.
The physicist gets a bucket of water, places 1.00000 gallons of
water in the bucket, drops in the ball, and measures the displacement
to six significant figures.
And the engineer? He writes down the serial
number of the ball, and looks it up.
Question: What do you get if you divide the circumference of a jack-o-lantern by its diameter?
Answer: Pumpkin Pi!
Question: What do you get when you take the moon and divide its circumference by its diameter?
Answer: Pi in the sky.
Question: What do you get if you divide the circumference of a bowl of ice cream by its diameter?
Answer: Pi a’la mode.
The mathematical value of Pi always starts with 3.14 but it is an infinite number but today is 3/14 or Pi Day, the equation of the circumference of a circle is always equal to Pi times the radius squared
And the radius is always equal to the diameter of the circle divided by 2 conversely the diameter is always equal to the radius times 2 , yes I’m a math geek
All I know is it’s my only son’s birthday and he ironically excels at math...lol
Also Einstein’s birthday.
A bunch of geeks said “hey, this gives us an excuse to eat pie”. And then thanks to the internet even non-geeks found out and started using it. Because life is short, have some pie.
I don’t know about hot dog pie but Taco Bell Mexican Pizzas on sale today for $3.14.
My wife just said that Hoagie day is tomorrow.
i am going to try this.
Triple Chocolate Cream Pie.
They forgot the bacon.
When I was getting my deep dive certification in Monterey, they said “think of something unusual and lets see if you can remember it at 120ft”
I passed!

Memorized it from HS just for kicks.
An old joke from the country was of a young man who went to the big city to attend college. On his return, his father asked him, “What’d you larn?”
He said, “Pi r square, pap!”
“You idjit,” said his father. “Pi are round. Cake are square!”
I might have to bake that this weekend...making a Chicken Pot Pie tonight...
Now if that isn't a number loaded with map directions just on the face of it, but folks are under enough stress already, so never mind.
I might as well toss the following in with the rest of my Happy Fun posts today.
I didn't see the movie, but
פאי is Pi = 91, and in the recent Kabbalah of Music class (without the mention of pi), Efraim Palvanov explains here that,
"91 is a number.. if you look across Torah.. 91 is this number that represents combining heaven and earth. It's a fusion of heaven and earth, and you see this number in many places. For example, if you look at an angel, a 'malakh'.. an angel is a being that can go between worlds, can go between these dimensions, can freely travel between the heavens and the earth.. so a malach is another connection between the upper worlds and the lower worlds. And if you look at the gematria of 'malakh' -- mem lamed alef chaf -- it's also 91..."
He's covered the connection before though:

https://www.mayimachronim.com/the-meaning-and-power-of-amen/
Experts argued over the quote for decades. A, or no a...
That's one small step for Amen, one giant leap for mankind.
Amen = 91.
And...ניל "Neil" = 90, which makes for an excellent application of:
The Addition of the KollelSometimes, in finding the numerical equivalent of a word, we increase the total by one. Rav Y.A. Chaver in Pitchei Sh'arim explains that in such cases the root of the word is still attached to the upper worlds, and therefore dependent upon them. When we add the kollel (=1), we thereby note the word's unique connection and dependence Above.

Pi... you can't have a Revolution without it...
Strange stuff:
1737 is the year that the representative letter π became popularized on account of its use by Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler:
Leonhard Euler
לאונרד אוילר
(= 538)

Then over in the city nicknamed "The Hub", in the Blackstone Historic District -- the "neck" of the North End -- is this stone at the head of the corner, with its peculiar, sketchy lore about its being the... zero mile marker for distances out of the city. The 1737 is a big mystery:
Φιλοσοφική λίθος

Pi... you can't have a Revolution without it...
Nearby, the Revolution famously kicked off with the midnight ride of Paul Revere, 38 years after Leonhard Euler popularized the used of π in 1737:

With it all coming full circle like that, IMO it'd sure be a good idea to keep on the lookout for the famous Pi code of Redemption:
"I will surely visit you."
How can that be a secret code if everyone knows the code?
Well anyone can check up on that verb for visit, attend. It is also translated as pun-ish. Potentially brutal, but it's not like people haven't been warned. (538 = בַּת קוֹל)
