This is disgusting

[NIH @NIH]

Today #NIH is terminating more than $250 million in funding—including more than 400 grants—to Columbia University following directives from the Trump Administration’s Joint Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism. The cancellations are due to Columbia University’s continued inaction in the face of persistent harassment of Jewish students.

@aliceschwarze 😬 that sounds incredibly frustrating. I hope you find a solution 🫂

[Jordan Snyder @jasnyder610]

Beautiful!

Here is a lovely geometric proof that sqrt(2) is irrational.

The proof begins by looking at an isosceles right triangle whose legs have length 1. By the Pythagorean theorem, this triangle's hypotenuse will have length sqrt(2).

Is teaching like filling a bucket? Or igniting a fire?

No, it's like teaching

@FrankNoeBerlin @LindorffLarsen Enjoy! You came at exactly the right time of year :)

Nerd alert but this infinitely recursive / infinitely zoomable implementation (by @shr_id) of Conway's Game of Life, where each cell is billions of gliders actively simulating a single square, might be the most impressive webpage ever created https://t.co/O462Gi9XSs

[Jordan Snyder @jasnyder610]

@aliceschwarze Hey, congratulations! It's a big step, best wishes for whatever is to come :)

Alan Kay (1987) on science pedagogy:

“The sad part of Hadamard’s diagram is that every child is taught math and physics through the [purely symbolic] channel that almost no adult mathematician or physicist uses. They use this channel to communicate, but not to [work].”

[QC @QiaochuYuan]

agreed. i can't remember the last time i was annoyed at someone for asking a "stupid question" in math. literally all of the questions i've ever been asked directly 1-on-1 are great and i love answering them, and i deeply appreciate people's hunger for deep understanding

[Jordan Snyder @jasnyder610]

@jkbren Lovely thread! I've been thinking a lot about time too since my life has changed so much in the last few years. Hope you're well!

[George Cantwell @GTCantwell]
