1729 was the number of the cab that G.H. Hardy took when he visited Ramanujan in the hospital.

Hardy thought it was a "dull number" to which Ramanujan replied "it is a very interesting number. It is the smallest number expressible as the sum of two cubes in two different ways"

A Harshad number is a positive integer which is divisible by the sum of its digits. For base 10 there is no sequence of more than 20 consecutive Harshad numbers.

Dirac's equation

In 1928 Paul Dirac wrote down this simple equation that predicts the existence of antimatter particles. He postulated the existence of positively charged electrons - the positrons - which were experimentally discovered in 1932 by Carl Anderson.

This is the “Standard Model Lagrangian”.

It is an equation that encapsulates just about everything we currently know about particle physics.

Most folks never see it, now you have.

The #Ax1 crew just walked down the crew access arm to the white room. They underwent extensive training to prepare for these final moments. Their hard work and dedication will soon come to fruition as they ingress into the spacecraft.

Richard Feynman found trigonometry notation to be ambiguous and confusing.

"If I had sin f, it looked like s×i×n×f"

So he decided to create his own notation. See below. 🧐

What do you think?

"The nine Indian figures are:

9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

With these nine figures, and with the sign 0 which the Arabs call zephir any number whatsoever is written"

Leonardo Fibonacci popularized the Hindu–Arabic numeral system in Europe with his book Liber Abaci published in 1202.

Read what you love until you fall in love with reading.

[Brian Roemmele @BrianRoemmele]

To those you love and to those who
love you, you have one of the most powerful gifts of humanity.

It is the gift of your unconditional and undivided: presence.

The world is suffering an epidemic deficiency of authentic presence.

There is no "out there"

There is only here.

Curious fact: If you calculate the polynomial f(n)=n²−n+41 for all n≤10⁶, about ~22% of the numbers are primes.
