@CmonMattTHINK The number length is an interesting variation on exponential growth (following directly from definition of factorial of course). Not sure if this type of growth actually has a name. But it's cool to think about.

@ShopRubyLove please make my January order right. I have contacted you SEVERAL times via less public means. I'm tired of not receiving any results of your having "escalated this." Surely it's been "escalated" high enough to have been dealt with by now -- three months later.

@dark_hive This was @toniasutherland's tweet, punctuation and emphasis and all. Please retweet rather than repeat as your own.

@FinalNoScore @toniasutherland But, yeah, it's frustrating, and I keep reloading all sort of pages trying to get info.

[Barbie Steinhurst @TheOtherBarbies]

@FinalNoScore @toniasutherland It's gonna be so hard to get decent info right now. Those who are sensory witness are busy dealing with safety of themselves and everyone else, and the majority of campus is spread out enough to be hovering in fear without actually knowing what's going on or where.

@udemy , how do I contact tech support/customer relations? I'm having a weird audio problem. It is unique to the udemy site, persists across extremely different courses, is unique to my new computer but not my old, and does not happen in troubleshoot test (only courses).

Math enthusiasts when they want people on social media to solve a system of linear equations

@ravenscimaven @rgay Math teachers have been dealing with it for ages. First with calculators, then with watches, then with wolfram alpha, now a host of computer algebra systems with additionally character recognition so the student only has to show it the problem, not type it.

@SarahWW @madeline_ryan97 @DavidBegnaud They’re called earplugs and/or noise canceling headphones. There are a wide variety, different price points, different sizes, eliminating different levels and types of noise. I now use mone all the time.

@BradElliottMath @CmonMattTHINK Yup! Same once I sat down with it. Found lots of strings but had trouble putting then together until I made a 1-32 list and figured out which number wasn’t represented in any of the strings.

Question time!
Teachers: What do well-meaning parents do that ends up undermining your work teaching math to their children?

[Barbie Steinhurst @TheOtherBarbies]

@ninaturner That was kinda the whole idea behind implementing a minimum wage, no?

[Barbie Steinhurst @TheOtherBarbies]

@MathProfPeter Have you checked out the epsilon delta activity at https://t.co/ntpqKFeaP8? I haven’t tried it, but looks like there is at least one. Geogebra probably also has some.

@howie_hua How old I am plus one. Max error=1.

[Barbie Steinhurst @TheOtherBarbies]

@EllenMauro @returnofthegoth Nope, not it.

@Dsrussosusan @robertkaplinsky I honest don’t know GYTO, other than the name behind the acronym, but based on the name alone, this answer is my impression.

@robertkaplinsky @getyourteachon @heywadeking Is he demonstrating the walking on water story?
