I’ve been computing since before the internet, so definitely the latter lol. In my defence social media was never my thing so thats probably why I didn’t come across it
yeah, that makes sense lol. this one was very common on 4chan and chat rooms. think it started with aim. that was one of the first broadly accessible instant messaging platforms that you were likely to find young women on.
qt(333/106) and qt(355/113) are closer approximations anyway, with 4 and 6 decimal digits of precision, respectively.
There’s also 22/7, which is slightly more precise than 3.14 alone, but if you ask me, the first two nines which appear in pi lend themselves to a nice rhythm in English that are easily worked into a sing-sing mnemonic that keeps up until the “79” after the 12th decimal, when that falls apart. As a result, I’ve only memorized the first half of my rhyme:
Took me longer then I’d like to admit to get the qt3.14
It used to be like this, but I don’t have a fork, and can’t do ru over 18
