#Math is just a language. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't learn math. There's no such thing as good math genes

If you learned to speak when you were a baby, you can learn math!! You just need to stop worrying about making mistakes, because that's the only way you learn.

@TimBrzezinski I am trying to figure out if there are any advantages to organizing Geogebra activities using folders as opposed to using books

@ryangrim I have been trying to reach you regarding a story you may be interested in

@GovLarryHogan @GovernorVA I have been to Chief Justice Roberts house 3 times in the last week & I can assure you that there is no issue regarding his safety. @GovHogan is a shameless political hack & is simply grandstanding on this issue.

If you haven't read The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood, you won't feel as chilled by the news that a woman's right to decide when to have a child is being revoked.

We're at an inflection point in our history where we're transitioning from the USA to Gilead. God help us all

I thought this was obvious to everybody, but apparently it needs to be said explicitly: nuclear fusion power will not "save us from climate catastrophe". There is no way it will be available in the next 30 years or so.

@GAmsterdam @pickover Actually now that I think about it
They are both false

Unless x is 1 or -1

[Michael Karpman @4mathelp]

@GAmsterdam @pickover -x^²=|x| is false

(-x)^²=|x| is true

[Michael Karpman @4mathelp]

I thought it would be a good challenge for high school geometry students to prove this is true. Until I tried to prove it..... 😂

Shiver in ecstasy. Mathematics.

Morley's Theorem: in any triangle, the 3 points of intersection of the adjacent angle trisectors ALWAYS reveal a mysterious equilateral triangle. Source: https://t.co/8WCmnPS0Lg

[Michael Karpman @4mathelp]

@AlanAMoy @pickover The triangle changes it size, depending on the vertices of the triangle. Perhaps it is not so apparent in this gif.

@paulajean2020 @saurabhnow If you run again I'll be back in West Virginia to support you. If you hear of someone in Maryland who has integrity let us know.

@DucksLegacy @RepJohnKatko LoL

You call him a "trader"

You can't even spell. You are an ignoramus. Or maybe you meant he works on Wall St & trades stock.

I assume you took your handle from Donald Duck's illegitimate bearded and inbred son, who you watch on TV

You are a #PatheticTrumpLicker

[Michael Karpman @4mathelp]

@DonnaMa80207850 @leeaarons1 @RepJohnKatko If you mean corporate donors when you say constituents, then I agree with you. If you believe that Mitch McConnell voted for that bill to help the downtrodden people of Kentucky, then I have a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn. The so-called bipartisan bill is a corporate giveaway.

@meshel1970 @danbostic Because you are mentally ill.

@KionaSmith07 I loved your article on Ben Franklin and #vaccines. I must say that I think you were a little sloppy with the statistics, but the gist of the article was right on.

@PrarieOfMaples @paulajean2020 @PeoplesParty_US When @paulajean2020 ran against @JoeManchinWV the Democratic Party stood by #corruptManchin & look how that worked out In 2020 she got no support from the party in the general election. Paula Jean has put her heart & soul into this fight. Until you #WalkInHerShoes STFU

Whenever I get overwhelmed by a big project, I break it up into small pieces so I can be overwhelmed by each small piece.

[Michael Karpman @4mathelp]

@jamestanton @MathCurmudgeon And now on top of it all I realize that I was just proving it must be a multiple of 4. But if that is the case (and considering my track record on this thread there's no reason to believe I'm right) it would mean that we could extend this and say that it must be a multiple of 12

[Michael Karpman @4mathelp]

@jamestanton @MathCurmudgeon OMG "curse" not "course"
