What does that math says

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 27 points 2 days ago (2 children)

"Big O mathematical notation, which I'm sure most Americans are familiar with..."

[–] RNAi@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The kids seem very fluent in OwO tho

Yeah, Iranians might know about historical figures and mathematics, but can they quote every line from a Spongebob episode? Or have Spider-man show up to their birthday parties? Didn't think so.

The mathematical expression he included — ΔO_BSOH>0 ⇒ f(f(O))>f(O) — appears to be a signal that any increase in Hormuz blockade severity produces a compounding, nonlinear spike in oil prices, not a simple one-to-one rise.

This is the explanation from the Drop Site News tweet.

I guess this would be because a significant percentage of oil demand is inflexible.
