99% of mathematicians quit staring intensely at the problem right before it solves itself

Quite possibly the funniest targeted ad I’ve ever gotten

[notnulli]

math articles i found on wikipedia rated.

0/10 - didnt know they had 4chan brainrot in ancient greece

5/10 - although my taste in men/men adjescent entities is notoriously horrible

7/10 - who doesn't love a bit of tendriil perversion

9/10 - i want to put it in my mouth, great shape, great name

5/10 - great name for a disappointing shape

2/10 - no actual gnomes

3/10 - i respect the dedication but why

1/10 - not only does it not look like a rabbit they perturbed my boy

10/10 no notes

What I thought “mathematical maturity” was a year ago:

Math child: “How do you memorize the tricks for writing proofs”

Math adult: “well, if you apply the very natural argument here, then clearly this follows”

What “mathematical maturity” actually seems to be:

Math child: “Well, I think I’m somewhat familiar with the topic, but not super sure about what that means… as a mere undergrad, I can only dream of such deep knowledge one day, please teach me this witchcraf—” *wears a suit to their first conference*

Math adult: “Yeah, so this isn’t my specialty, and I have no idea what you just said… but please explain a bit if you’re willing!” *begins 7+ hour conversation*

Doing nothing? Um excuse you, I am occupying three dimensions of space, at once. Please stop distracting me. I might drop them, and it's hard to put them back while I'm just a line segment.

exam season just is adding to the stress

not my usual ‘aesthetic’ touch but yea trying to showcase how messy it gets for me

Always remember PEMyDAS

Parentheses, E, Multiplication, Yugoslavia, Division, Abstraction, Solution

I'm not "wrong about that" or "bad at math" I'm just so good that I manage to prove even false things

The best scientific analysis is the “throw-it-at-a-wall” experiment.

Wanna know the space between atoms: gold foil experiment— throwing stuff at a gold wall

Wanna understand quantum particles: throw it at another quantum particle— AKA A WALL

Wanna understand the properties of light: throw it at a wall— double slit experiment

crying bc I don't get the Fibonacci sequence and its driving me insane

RABBITS?? MULTIPLYING??? HUHHH???

The chance of any order of a set of cards being a particular way is 52 factorial. It's actually too unlikely to ever happen, cards only ever get shuffled the one way but no one notices

so.

if bf is 7 foot tall and gf is 900 pounds

with skyblue being 2 bfs tall and quite a bit curvier than gf, this would mean she weighs about a ton

now this may seem ridiculous, BUT

if we take the average us female height and weight over the age of 20, those being 170.8 pounds and 63.5 inches (around 5'4)

by dividing skyblue's height with the average height we get a scaling factor of 2.59, and by employing the square-cube law we multiply the average weight with the cube of the scaling factor

which equals to *drumroll*

2967.47 pounds!!!

therefore, skyblue's approximate weight is 1.32 imperial tons/1.35 metric tonnes/1.48 us tons

this means that she is heavier than the average giraffe (1 tonne) while also being almost as tall as one (16'9), and only 452.53 pounds lighter than the curb weight of the heaviest toyota camry xv50 model (3420 pounds; SE V6 trim)
