we're still trying to figure out if they go to the same floor or not.

how regular people see joining fediverse:
42ReplyI still don't get it, personally. I just joined the one I'm on because it was the first one I saw I have no real understanding of what's going on or how it's didn't from reddit other than one person can't power trip on it.
14ReplyThink of it like different email providers. There are a few big ones, and some people host their own, but they can all (usually) communicate with each other.
13ReplyJust more servers, owned by different people, all sharing information. That’s it.

If you go to P and check enough doors, you might be able to find one that proves you've been on NP this whole time.
34ReplyI think is the other way around, we keep finding rooms on the NP floor that were actually on the P one, but we can't prove for sure that they're the same floor.
15ReplyWas that what Being John Malkovich was actually all about?

Ah, the classic unsolvable problem, P vs NP.
30ReplyIt's so obvious, though:
[Parking] [No Parking] [Sandy doesn't want to talk to you right now, so just give her the space and time she asked for, ok?] [𝔻𝕆𝕆𝕄]
The first two are separate floors, the last two are on the same floor.
20ReplyOn a serious note, what do these buttons actually mean? We usually have numbers in our lifts.
10ReplyNot in the picture are 6 buttons for 5 underground parking floors and the main floor. I have no idea what those buttons do, later when I left the office im going to check out. If this is my last message, let everyone know that I went missing on the name of science.

It's certainly a brazilian (or portuguese, maybe) elevator. These buttons are to be used by an elevator operator to manually control the lift.
They mean: "Parar" (stop), "Não Parar" (don't stop), "Subir" (go up) and "Descer" (go down). The buttons above operate the doors.
9ReplyCaralho mano, o pegou direitinho. É um elevador em São Paulo e deve ser pra o que você falou por que não fez nada quando eu pressione eles.

Maybe someone has a more specific explanation, but I could imagine it just being shorthands for certain departments.
Like, imagine a hospital where the third floor is dedicated to, uh, new patients, so you press the NP button.
3ReplyAh yeah, that makes sense

What a bummer. They did nothing.

Nah, they just labeled the type of transistors they're using. PNP, instead of NPN.

7ReplyWhat is the fan looking button? Is that if someone farts in the elevator?
7ReplyUmbrella Corp. OP better run fast.

They do not.
NP = Not P
5ReplyNP stands for non-deterministic polynomial.

That’s a suicide booth.
5ReplyIf you're Jeff Dean, NP means "No Problemo".
4ReplyThen it seems like I started life in the "Problemo" level, gotta go find this elevator to rectify this.
1Reply
Ah. So, P≠NP, but NP=F. This elevator is inside an atom.
