Leonhard Euler introduced or popularised several key symbols and notations still used today, including:

f(x) for function notation
e for the base of natural logarithms
i for the imaginary unit (√−1)
Σ (sigma) as the summation symbol
π (pi) for the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter (popularised by Euler, first used by William Jones)
Δy and Δ²y for finite differences
sin, cos, tan as abbreviations for trigonometric functions
φ(n) for Euler’s totient function.

His work standardized mathematical language across fields.

Liz Cheney during a commencement speech at Colorado College: “After the 2020 election and the attack of January 6th, my fellow Republicans wanted me to lie. They wanted me to say the 2020 election was stolen, the attack of January 6th wasn’t a big deal, and Donald Trump wasn’t dangerous.

I had to choose between lying and losing my position in House leadership.

No party, no nation, no people can defend and perpetuate a constitutional republic if they accept leaders who have gone to war with the rule of law, with the democratic process, with the peaceful transfer of power, with the Constitution itself.”

Death Valley, the hottest and driest place in the US just saw the 4th 1-in-1,000 year rain event in less than 2 weeks in the US.

3/4 of Death Valley’s annual rainfall fell in 3 hours.
