For Algebra Pizza Geeks on #PiDay...
The volume of a cylinder is
V = pi r^2 h
Think of a Pizza as a very short, wide cylinder, and replace some letters — If pi is just PI, and the Pizza has a radius of Z and thickness of A, then the volume is:
V = PIZZA
@corsairbear@mkarenwirein@KayeEllen17@MalcolmNance I like your bramble metaphor. I can imagine scars from scratches building up over time but once in awhile a thorn reopens one. That’s how I feel sometimes.
@KayeEllen17 I’m so sorry. Having lost a child myself, I understand your pain. Remember the happy times and the light she brought to your life and those whose she touched.
@JVreaux Thank you Jess and Nelba. I'm also in this awful club. 2/1/02 my son died. It's taken a long time, but I've learned to breath and brace. My heart breaks for all those who've lost loved ones this year, especially the parents.
@DrEricDing As a father who’s lost a young child (not to covid), I know her pain. I hope the deniers read and understand this, but I don’t think they’re capable of that level of empathy. So incredibly sad
Earlier today, I was diagnosed as having suffered a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), or what's commonly known as a mini-stroke. I'm 23 years old and I just had a stroke due to Covid-19 complications.
