Weird to learn about digraphs in 3rd grade english but ok.

If everyone else gets raptured tomorrow, will housing prices go down? Will traffic to Atlanta get better?

assuming i didn't make any typos the blues has chromatic number 3 and 14784 three colorings sagecell.sagemath.org?z=eJyFks-Omz...

Has anyone seen Long Story Short, and if so, Eliot Cooper is a mathematician right?

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m not trying to read 8 letters per candidate.

👹 made quesadillas by himself (more or less) today!

I will never vote for a pro-life candidate and that is a promise. fuck you

Wordsworth: welcome to the meeting of Romantic Poets. We need to set our agenda, and I am recommending clouds, flowers, or possibly clouds shaped like flowers Percy Shelley: or the severed head of a tyrant William Blake: or thicc Satan Wordsworth: or what??? Blake: I have produced a sketch-

Every headline talking about Kimmel being suspended for his “Kirk comments” is journalistic malpractice. He was suspended for comments about MAGA opportunists exploiting Kirk’s death, after the FCC chair issued a Mafioso threat.

i think that if the FCC threatened to revoke ABC’s license unless it replaced Jimmy Kimmel with Kevin Hart to diversify the network, Ilya Shapiro would be able to identify the issue here

Good lord, he finally officially released this. The world IS ending www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGea...

Looking for a job? Know someone who is? TPSE has a half-time admin spot open. It's fully remote, pretty flexible, includes BENEFITS - and you'd get to work with a fun bunch of math people. Circulate widely - esp. to any of the 100's of dedicated former fed workers. www.indeed.com/job/administ...

/4 Klein’s view of politics reminds me of the old Ralph and Sam Looney Tunes cartoons, the mortal enemies punching in, trying to kill each other, and then punching out. But there’s a difference.

Just over an hour a way! 👇

they are furious to the point of rage over the fact that obama reminded them he is black and in doing so implicated them in racial prejudice

Alt-graders: I'm working on a post about off-the-cuff dismissals of alternative grading. Negative gut-reactions people have when they first hear about it, and how to respond. What would you include? (My current list is in the next post.) I'm actually hoping it will be a bit light-hearted...

3²/4²/5² is the perfect day for arguing about best proofs of the Pythagorean theorem. An incredible thing about Euclid's proof is that it applies to the area of *any* similar figures drawn on the sides of a right triangle. 🧮

#MathSky! We (@code4math.org) have MORE talks tomorrow Mon Sept 15!! 🌟 at 9am Eastern, Accessible papers with PreTeXt 🌟 at 3pm Eastern, Intro to the LMFDB 🌟 at 4pm Eastern, Lessons from software on managing complexity (Note the last two talks were just switched around to accommodate scheduling!)

I tried to explain the “Emory football: still undefeated” joke to 👹 and man, he does not like vacuous truths.

In an airport, thinking of space filling curves for some reason.

hello #iTeachMath & #MathSky: i would like feedback! i am thinking about having ss in precalc who are learning trig create graphs with sin and cos and the polygon @desmos.com tool. goal is to do smth a lil diff and scaffold towards polar coordinates; sample graph: www.desmos.com/calculator/g...

Nachos with homemade queso sauce. Layered like lasagna.

I maintain that social science is much harder than math, because how does one even begin to make sense of all this?

You’re think *you’re* depressed? Try being at the annual meeting of the American Political Science Association right now with 5,000 political scientists presenting their work on the state of democracy, public opinion, and media. They are also drinking heavily.

Blowing apart their professor’s (granted unbelievably naive) conjecture. But they’re very psyched to investigate this counterexample!

A new article is out of which I'm a coauthor: "Visualization of Escher-like hyperbolic tessellations": www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Shout out to everyone only now learning that "Albert Einstein was reclusive at the end of his career, shunning public engagements." Really meant, "For the last *20 years* of his career, Einstein opposed US racism by only speaking publicly at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

My guess is that his threat to prosecute feds who violate the rights of Chicagoans did it. Every D governor and AG should be making the same promise.

All the dogs in the world, and mine has to be canine Veruca Salt.

This is hilarious to me. The audacity to expect the Koreans he detained to train before they leave.

Are you ready to align your grading practices with your values? Join us December 17–18 for the Alternative Grading Institute (online), which will bring together faculty from across higher education for a two-day, hands-on experience in standards-based, specifications, and collaborative grading.

It is weird that the assassination of essentially a celebrity influencer is a bigger deal than the shooting of two top state legislators + their spouses

On Friday at Noon (EDT) I am giving a talk in the New York Combinatorics Seminar. The title is: "Mathematical illustration through a combinatorial lens" in which I share my decade-long journey as a mathematical artist and jewelry maker and how it intertwines with my combinatorics research.

Cutting chuck into steaks, because chewiness is better than going broke.

Hey #MathSky, we're starting to think about the next AWM/ @mathforamerica.bsky.social Essay Contest! Can I get some reposts? Teachers, this is a great fall semester project. #ITeachMath @nctm.org @atmmathematics.bsky.social @ncte.org

Thought of you and this post specifically when I saw this.
