#proofs

[catscomputerscreativewriting]

It's so funny to me that people think of Math/Mathematicians as being hyper-logical and rational. Like, have you seen some of the wild things hiding in the Math?

Did you know there are non-computable numbers?? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaitin%27s_constant)

Did you know that there are things that are true, but we can't prove them??? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del%27s_incompleteness_theorems)

Did you know that we can prove that something exists, and yet never actually figure out what that thing is?? (https://mathworld.wolfram.com/NonconstructiveProof.html)

Math is crazy. Math is wild. Math hardly makes sense, and when you think you understand the weirdest parts of it, everyone who hears you explain it to thinks you're a gibbering lunatic.

"In mathematics you don’t understand things. You just get used to them." - von Neumann

(please share more unhinged math with me, i want to see more scary math)

Reagan: All right, Reagan, you made your choice because humanity needs someone to make the hard choices. And as long as the person you love is happy, maybe you can be happy later. Until then, you have a job to do.

Reagan: Staedtler kind of asked me to run away with him, like, forever. Brett? What if you being in charge was more of a permanent thing?

Brett: Forever? But, Reagan, you're my best friend, and... I... And I got this. All I care about is that you're happy.

Yo math people, what was your first proof?

regarding the percy situation if i see any of y’all try to defend him saying ,,innocent until proven guilty,, i will literally shoot a fucking bullet trough my skull. if u cared enough to go on twitter and see the dozens of proofs the victims put out you wouldn’t even be questioning the situation. he’s been doing that FOREVER and too many of y’all are saying the victims could be lying. just say you’re defending a serial r@pist and go.

there’s also proof of him being disrespectful to women and the queer community, especially gay men. there’s also of video of him saying a racial slur (the c slur) and me being a poc that makes me even more angry.

and to the people who say shit like ,,i’m about to cry i loved him so much why did this have to happen,, THIS ISNT ABOUT YOU STFU RIGHT NOW. this is infuriating. what’s important rn is that the victims get their justice and that this boy gets what he deserves which is getting locked up. he’s a nepo baby and could barely act anyway it’s not the right time to be complaining abt the recasting of xavier thorpe NO ONE CARES.

i am truly hoping that what he did won’t be overlooked just beautiful he’s a famous white man. the fact that he’s gotten away with it all these years is truly sick.

If proof by contradiction was a person I’d give them a big fat kiss on the lips

Just know, when I write, “Now, observe that…” in a proof, it could mean any of the following:

— watch me cook nerds

— Observe… (with the condescending tone of a 1980s supervillain)

— look at it bitch (with warmth and love)

— look at it bitch (derisive)

— look at it bitch (hesitantly like I’m trying to be dominate in the bedroom, and I think you might be into it, but I’m really not sure. Like you’ve said you might be into that kinda thing but were you dropping hints? I don’t know but the actual follow-thru feels unnatural and weird :/)

— look at it bitch (confidently, cause now I know you like it)

— I don’t want to fuck with latex right now, so I’m writing this by hand and I’m really tired, so everyone just nod in agreement

One of the fun things about being a math major is learning new notation options and then getting to watch everyone almost immediately decide what they're gonna use forever. I have visuals for non-math people because math shorthand stuff is very fun to me! :D

For completing a proof:

Q.E.D. is considered kind of old fashioned but classic, the open box is quite common and the default for LaTeX (a program often used to help type up math), and I don't know what the general view on those last two are. I use the crossed box because I like the emphasis it adds and it's fun to write.

For stating a contradiction:

I will use that wondrous lightning-bolt symbol at any possible opportunity because it's delightful to have an opportunity to draw a small arrow-headed bolt of lightning in the middle of a math problem.

🎨Proofs to the drawing 🖌

Interesting fact. The whole line was drawn on 1 layer. The drawing was drawn for my friend. And she really liked him! ^^✨

Should I post such confirmation posts in the future?

============

Интересный факт. Всь лайн был нарисован на 1 слое. Рисунок был нарисован для моей подруги. И он ей действительно понравился! ^^✨

Должен ли я публиковать такие посты с подтверждением в будущем?

[kimblestudies]

would anyone be interested in an upper level mathematics discord? I know there's math and hw servers out there but I was thinking it may be nice to help each other with let's say everything past precal ?

[daemonhxckergrrl]

I swear half of mathematics is someone going "halp I used the correct syntaxes but it brokeded it :("

and then a bunch of wizards who havent seen daylight in years consuming several thousand kg of tobacco as they use a bunch of pre-defined rules to either prove a new rule (adding a defined behaviour) or disprove it (slapping a big red ERR sign on it).

and then a feral alchemist shows up to create a Special Rule for Advanced Usage that provides a vaguely related proof no one quite understands but later becomes foundational to society.

Important ending slide from a talk I gave to the CS department with ~24 hours notice.

[sad-emo-dip-dye]

but just can’t let chuuya go entirely

Who’s gonna tell this loser they’re not reading a YA cringe romance and a seinen manga with important themes of abuse and self esteem

You know, I wasn’t gonna respond to this because these asks have been silly to begin with, but I think I will. I can tell that you are really passionate about this story. That you really care about this character, and they mean a lot to you.

But it also sucks to see you taking that care and molding it into anger that you direct towards other people. How exhausting must it be to spend all this time attacking others for something they are trying to enjoy? How can you enjoy it yourself when all you do is spread conflict around you?

Yes, this story is one that deals with important themes of abuse and self esteem. But it is also one that deals with kindness and forgiveness, and the importance of the bonds and relationships you make with others, and how they help and support you to move forwards.

Spaces like this are made for people to connect, to share ideas and artwork and writings and music and just bask in the joy of creation and community. It’s ok to have different ideas and opinions than the people around you!

But arguing and tearing down people around you is just pointless. Being intentionally rude and instigating debate? What are you trying to prove? You said yourself you’re getting bored anyways. So there is no reason for this. I hope you continue to find joy in things like this story, but I also hope you learn to respect other opinions, or just mind your damn business.
