In several mathematical notation systems, the most important being APL/J, programming languages inspired to codify "tools of thought" notation as code, the log function is ln. 10&log is base 10 log.
I believe it was edited to fit the joke. If not, yeah I dunno. The context in the scene isn't ambiguous or anything, so if its like that in the show's subtitles, its likely an error.

I can't believe that I understood this joke. I honestly can't even really remember when to use natural logs...

As long as it's high-school math

Did the subtitle transcriber think that "In" is a name or something? Why is the "I" capitalized?

Unsure if.... fuck it I'll just blow it open.
The context is that log
ehas a shortcut called "ln", that is L N, said lawn, for "natural logarithm" (but in... Latin probably?)And so the joke is that "ln" looks like "in" in this context.

So this is really a font joke, stupid fonts that make the I and l look the same.
I always set my defaults to Tahoma for this reason.

Yes I know the joke. I was just pointing out that the "I" in "in" seems to be capitolized for no reason.
Evkob@lemmy.ca · 7 pts · 328d
...it's not a capital "i", it's a lowercase L. Thus the joke; it's "I'm LN" instead of the usual "I'm in".
LodeMike@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 328d
Yes I know the joke. It's an "I" in the subtitles I've watched the show twice over.

It appears you do not, in fact, get the joke.

Maybe they're going by Emily Dickenson capitalization rules.

Its probably edited. The dialogue is real though.

Side note, this reminded me that 3blue1brown just started a series on the Laplace Transform if you’re into the further antics of e.

the first thing that comes to my mind is the euler's number
the second one is
tetris11@feddit.uk · 7 pts · 329d
Second thing is Euler's Product Formula, which is just amazing in it's definition.
Zeta(s) = Sum(over all integers) [ 1 / n^s^ ] = Product(over all prime numbers) [ 1 / 1 - p^-s^ ]
That "over all prime numbers" part gets me every time, and yet the statement is provably true

I almost get this one, but I'm not sure why LOGe would be In
Just don't speak enough maths lol
felsiq@piefed.zip · 27 pts · 329d
ln is just shorthand for the natural logarithm, which is log base e. In case it’s not clear from the picture, it’s written LN (but lowercase) in math

Much appreciated!

You mean programmers. Real mathematicians™ write it as ln.

Why am I subbed to this? I get like n-5% of the jokes.
