Not being able to do basic math should be considered as problematic as illiteracy. How can you expect representatives to make correct decisions if they can’t verify such simple calculations?

I have like three of each of these and no one got mad! Maybe the examples really were trivial/obvious/easy/clear

As a mathematician I am honor bound to remind everyone that you can’t make a four circle Venn diagram, you need ovals. (Else it is impossible for the sets diagonal from one another in intersect only each other)

Just in time for the semester to start - my first Lean PR went through recently! This is as close as I’ll ever get to being a software developer. github.com/leanprover-com…
I don’t love sharing AI but I’m baffled by what the message is supposed to be here. “Come back we miss you” is so sinister. Are people supposed to kill themselves and hope the other side is White 80s

Broke: learning LEAN to get better at Factorio Woke: playing Factorio because you found out you can use LEAN to optimize it. (That might be me soon)

I guess not. A mathematician would have at least looked into the numbers and realized 40 million of those are visas for tourism and short business trips.

This is really exciting and impressive, and this stuff is in my area of mathematics research (convex optimization). I have a nuanced take. 🧵 (1/9)

This doesn't surprise me. AI is already quite good (research level?) at the kind of brute force "Apply standard techniques 50 times in a row just in a novel environment" papers you see in areas like convex optimization. That's what I use it for

Kudos to Terry Tao for this: newsletter.ofthebrave.org/p/im-an-award-…
Given any year in the commonly used Gregorian calendar, • the last day of February, • April 4 (4/4), • June 6 (6/6), • August 8 (8/8), • October 10 (10/10), • December 12 (12/12) all occur on the same day of the week. For 2025 this so-called Doomsday is Friday.

Euler’s number is also about shapes - specifically the area under 1/x. Euler’s number is upper bound that, with the lower bound 1, makes the area 1. (I’ve never cared for the limit definition 😅)

Another fun open problem: Conjecture (Rota). Let n be a natural number. Let V be an n-dimensional vector space. Let B₁, …, Bₙ be bases of V. Then there exist orderings of these bases Bₖ = (bₖ₁, …, bₖₙ) such that {b₁ₖ, …, bₙₖ} is a basis of V for all 1 ≤ k ≤ n.
