I wouldn’t last 24 hours.

Who writes it that way???
It’s read out "500 less than steps a day"
Favorite subject of them grammar not was.
technically the symbol is parsed as "greater than". So syntactically they are not wrong, but we are not accustomed to reading it like that
-
That doesn't sound very healthy physically. But mentally? Yes!
That's the trick though, especially as you get older. The stuff that sounds like an awesome relaxing reset and will surely be nice at the time, is not always the activity that will actually leave you feeling better afterwards.
A frustrating example is being tired in the middle of the day on a weekend when I wanted to be productive in my hobbies & house work. If I take a nap, will that save me evening or ruin my evening?
There's a lot of trial and error, since we're all different.

People don't know how to use greater-than or less-than symbols
such as yourself you mean?
-
500 greater than steps per day
aka steps per day less than 500
I don't get why people have a problem with this
-
I think <500 steps a day is meant here.
Yes that's what they wrote in the OP
-
Eating expensive. Buying alcohol. Delivery because of the low steps/day.
I’m too broke for this.
Though… Is a drop of alcohol sufficient? Is watching at porn for a second sufficient? Is running an idle game for 5h sufficient? Does cycling, crawling or a wheelchair count for steps?
no, that's how you get around the limit

It’s to give your heart a reason to have a heart attack.
If you can’t get any better, the only way to go up the leaderboard is to incapacitate your opponents.

Nope, it's wrong lol
-
It's a bit weird, but imo not wrong. 500 > steps/day or steps/day < 500 is the same. As long as the big end of the < or > is at the 500 it makes sense. It only doesn't make sense if you literally read 500 > steps/day as "five hundred greater than steps a day" instead of parsing it as math.
Only reason it's so jarring is the context has people parsing the whole list as language and they weren't expecting to have to abruptly parse a mathematical expression.

Shouldn't it be 500<?
-
If you read it aloud it doesn't sound right, but from a mathematical perspective it's saying the number of steps per day should be less than 500, which I think is the intention of the writer, no?

500 greater then steps per day

Was with you until no home cooked meals. Takeaways cost more than I spend on food for a week and I can make better food.
Make it buy a kg of every flavour of sausage at the butchers and eat them all over the month and the challenge works out a lot cheaper and tastier.
Yeah but you'll also be eating sausage for every meal of every day for that entire month.

I did that one day. Does it count?

It's gonna fit right in with the alcohol

500 greater then steps per day
wrote last edited by [email protected]500 > steps_per_day
Unfortunately I don't think we have enough information to solve for
steps_per_day
, though I assume it is also>= 0
.So we can make an educated guess that
500 > steps_per_day >= 0

I think the steps are the only challenge. Just going to the bathroom accrudes 1000 steps sometimes
