So my kid's homework asks for a close estimate of 32,292. Is 30,000 a close estimate? Is 32,000? Is 32,300 a close estimate?
It doesn't give any kind of definition of how many digits or significant figures is required.

depends on the context, I suppose. if the question is 138 * 234 and you want to estimate that with 140 * 230, maybe 32200 is the answer they're looking for, but what do I fucking know that's a typical confusing common core question for you

Using your headlights has no hard deleterious effect on the user, nor does it feed into an overarching quasi-religious ritualized mass hysteria aside from single day events like leaving your headlights on for 9/11. The only absolute negative effect to the user is a minute reduction in gas mileage. Relative effects include ego, psychosocial whatever, and so on.

Masks however are part of a cult (which itself "masks" a rapid social and economic reorganization), reduces oxygen intake, prevents elimnation of metabolic waste and other toxins by exhalation, and in general signals that you have faith in the script set forth by your unseen masters, like domesticated livestock. All the other stuff like conforming to prevent emotional distress in others, attenuate the exceedingly miniscule possibility of transmitting something, and so on are strictly ancillary. It's about spectacle, fear, and conformance.

Imagine bothering to explain this to a farm animal. Of course it can't understand, when will he ever learn.

Common sense as in commonly retarded, sure. repeated use of disposable masks causes them to outgas toxic chemicals. The other fine mesh polymer fiber masks would offer some measure of protection via an electrostatic effect. Though that's assuming there's something to protect against. There is also much to be said about droplet size and weight affecting distance traveled.

Use your brain. Look at the changes occurring around you in the future, and th8ink criticially about what you could use it for. Think like a psychopath looking down upon a lower lifeform which you intend to manage. Perhaps with good intentions, in truth, though also perhaps with deep all consuming need, malice, and misguided ideals. Human psychologically is unfortunately just theology from another angle.

We just discussed this. I rarely wear a mask aside from when I want to control the behavior and perception of other people, I'm completely fine and statistically it can be assumed I'll remain so. If I drove home in the pitch black however not only will I directly and readily kill someone, but I can't see worth a damn and statistically won't get far. Your entire way of thinking revovles around not wearing amask being a death sentence for deadly covid.

It's a ridiculous almost childish assertion built on faith and magical thinking, like when mommy or daddy tell you don't do x y z and you simply believe and internally defend their omniscience. The STATE is not your PARENTS. And there is no deadly magic instakill virus out there, despite the movies you've seen.

>super-vague non-answer, so you literally have no clue lmao
I knew this wou;ld be your response before I'd even started typing, that's how predictable you are. I know the structure of this interaction because I've been at this for a long time. I can't give you an answer that you would understand. Start with the notion of population control, globalism, an economy built for the insanity of infinite growth, and technocracy. Masks are a ritual.

Just round up the numbers anon a close estimate would be 32,300. basically if the number is 5 or less you round up to zero and if its above 5 you round up to 10 so say 9 rounds up to 10 or 14 rounds up to 10. It just depends how much the homework asks you to round it up, from the looks of it you just have to round it up to the tenths so 32,290 is a close estimate.

Everyone blows spitula and phleghm at each other constantly, in ammounts that are almost invisible to the naked eye but can be easily caught with an infrared or high speed camera. That's the reason doctors wear masks while doing surgery, even if they're not sick and they probably won't sneeze, spit and snot will make it's way out of their noses and mouths someway or another.

30677.4 ~ 33906.6
note: the .05 was just a made up simplification for a trivial coffee tasting test years ago, why it has been applied as some universal statistical rule is beyond me

If you go by closet three digit grouping you get
32,300

if you go by one set rounding you get
32,300

if you go by significant figures you get
undefined

if you go by closest estimate with the knowledge of the exact value you get
32,292

if you go by Google you get

if you go by my trusted A.I. you get
