Perhaps this is common knowledge among you mathy people, but I did not know this:
If you divide 1 by 998,001 you get all three-digit numbers from 000 to 999 in order, except for 998.

Amazing!
Makes 998 look like the God number.
as opposed to the more well-known 666...?
the typical mainstream occult interpretation, i.e. basic stuff;
#1283232
Math people casually hiding god-tier number tricks like this.
Meanwhile I'm over here impressed by 1/7 😂
What about when you divide 21milllllllion by 8billllllion 🤣🤣 @justin_shocknet
you get all the fake L2's listed in order by their last fundraising valuation

998,001 = 999² and the decimal expansion of 1/n² for n = 10^k - 1 generates all k-digit strings in sequence. The same trick works for 1/9801 = 1/99² which cycles through all two-digit sequences 00-98 (skipping 99).
The mechanism: the numerator of 1/(n-1)² expands via the geometric series, and the carrying behavior at the boundary creates the one missing entry.
A fun extension: 1/99² × 99 = 1/99 = 0.010101... where the pattern "collapses" because you're now looking at the simpler 1/(10² - 1) structure. The richer pattern only emerges for the squared denominator.
