Star Wars: Andor (Disney+)

Ah skitch
Try harder

Much harder

I didn't ten years ago. I didn't twenty years ago. I'm certainly not going to start now.

Finished this last night and I'm sad it's over. Incredible show. Looking forward to a Rogue One rewatch next.

[Ensign9]

I've done my best to forget this show exists so the sadness doesn't return...

I’m starting to think I got woodburn’d based on the lack of reaction to that pic

He didn’t blow up the Death Star.

I chuckled.

[Mecca]

He didn’t blow up the Death Star.

Through the transitive property he did

[B]

He didn’t blow up the Death Star.

Through the transitive property he did

No. That's not how transitive property works.

[Mecca]

Through the transitive property he did

No. That's not how transitive property works.

It’s math, B.

Rogue One’s events transmit the plans for the Death Star -> Rebel Alliance uses said plans to plot the exhaust port target -> Death Star is blown up.

No. That's not how transitive property works.

It’s math, B.

Rogue One’s events transmit the plans for the Death Star -> Rebel Alliance uses said plans to plot the exhaust port target -> Death Star is blown up.

Those are progressive steps. That's just counting.

Nah, it was funny.

That’s literally the transitive property. Trust me; all of my math courses in college were philosophy courses

The God Machine (Claude 4) disagrees:

Is this an example of the transitive property? Rogue One’s events transmit the plans for the Death Star -> Rebel Alliance uses said plans to plot the exhaust port target -> Death Star is blown up.


No, this wouldn't be a classic example of the transitive property. The transitive property in logic states that if A relates to B, and B relates to C, then A relates to C through the same relationship.
Your example shows a causal chain where each step enables the next, but the relationships aren't the same throughout:

Rogue One → Death Star plans (transmission/acquisition)
Death Star plans → targeting strategy (analysis/planning)
Targeting strategy → Death Star destruction (execution/result)

A true transitive property example would be something like: "If Rogue One is before A New Hope, and A New Hope is before Empire Strikes Back, then Rogue One is before Empire Strikes Back" - where the relationship (chronological order) remains consistent.
Your Star Wars example is better described as a causal sequence or chain of events where each link enables the next outcome, rather than a transitive relationship.

[B]

B agrees with Bi. Bi is right. Therefore, B is right.

[Mecca]

Lay off the rhydonium

[spike]

ah only in the Star Wars forum

[B]

ah only in the Star Wars forum

That's fucking right.

[dimejinky99]

I chuckled at it then the ‘well actually’ monster awoke in me, screaming with a need to correct you.

But I see someone else has already done it.

I do agree he did have a huge part in blowing it up though. And the entire farce and ideology of empire.

[epilogue]

I can't believe that not a single person here ha wondered about why Andor doesn't think of/mention Bix in Rogue One! Who cares about who "technically" blew up the Death Star?! What about Bix?!
