the prisoner’s dilemma is pretty fun to talk about, but hearing other people talk about it gets really annoying after a while. if we all cooperate with one another we can make sure no one ever has to hear about it again

[Daniel Litt @littmath]

Please tweet “Please tweet” twice, first without quotes, then with quotes, followed by (twice, first without quotes, then with quotes, the second time with a period) “twice, first without quotes, then with quotes, followed by (twice, first without quotes, then with quotes).”

If you're a professor or a student in STEM in a Western country, you probably know someone from the Sharif University of Technology in Iran. They might have be your students, peers, or friends.

That university is now under attack by the Islamic Republic.

We sit with Thomas Manuel @notrueindian, author of ‘Opium Inc.: How a Global Drug Trade Funded the British Empire,’ and discuss the historic opium trade which unleased two wars and ultimately shaped human history

Very pretty problem (and solution)!

[Aditya Potukuchi @PotukuchiA]

Brilliant proof and a very entertaining video! I wonder what the intended (by problem setters) solution to this problem was.

[Numberphile @numberphile]

It’s the “Question Six” video you’ve been waiting for…

Zvezda shows us how it’s done.

@lreyzin @yorkuniversity Thanks a lot Lev! I am quite excited as well!

[Matt Henderson @matthen2]

give each pixel a random Pokemon type, and then battle pixels against their neighbors, updating each pixel with the winning type (using the Pokemon type chart)

we quickly see areas of fire > water > grass > fire, electric sweeping over, ground frontiers taking over etc etc

We'd also like to wish you many happy returns on π Day 2022 🥳

[Aditya Potukuchi @PotukuchiA]

Interesting 2's-day fact: an infinite tower of sqrt(2)'s converges to 2.

[Numberphile @numberphile]

Okay, here’s what we did for 22-2-22

You can thank (or blame) @standupmaths for the whole debacle…
Thanks to many people who were generous with their time.

[Aditya Potukuchi @PotukuchiA]

A lot of food for thought, in the form of a short history lesson. Highly recommend this.

[India Ink @IndiaInkHistory]

India collects all kinds of data on its citizens— except the one thing that defines its society: caste.

Caste data was part of Indian census till 1951. What's so scary about this data that so many Indian leaders—from Nehru to Modi—want to cover it up? https://t.co/qEBZUOjWmM

Fellas if she
- tells you to normalize her behavior
- says she's going through a phase
- keeps you guessing about where she is

that ain't your girl, that's a wavefunction

[Aditya Potukuchi @PotukuchiA]

@storyshaped @the_point_mag Congratulations! Very happy for you.

[Aditya Potukuchi @PotukuchiA]

An amazing essay that's relatable to more than just writers by @storyshaped. Highly recommend!

I was selected as a "Rising Star in Data Science", and was at the workshop at @DSI_UChicago last week! The campus was beautiful, and lovely to meet old friends and make some new ones😊 Check out their work here: https://t.co/gVwVR9EkPN
