ok wait, reblog if you’ve cried at least once because of math, doesn’t matter which grade i’m trying to prove something 

dark academia isn’t just for the humanities: i bring you STEM academia.

observatories. stargazing. biographies of scientists. filling the board end to end with equations. hand-drawn anatomical diagrams. the hazy euphoria after finally finishing an assignment. oppenheimer & frankenstein. the uniformity of a circuit board; the chaos of a programming window. ibm’s a boy and his atom. event horizon telescope’s black hole photo. the wonder of studying anatomy and knowing that’s happening within you. sketching organic compounds that may as well be sigils. studying latin for medical terminology. doing problem sets to classical music.

Y’ever read something and have understanding that has eluded you interminably suddenly stop, curl up, and snuggle neatly into a fold in your brain because a new way way opened to it?

I've seen this passed around a few times, and I have one thing to say:

It's online. The book was carefully and wonderfully recreated online by hand. You can find it here. The entire book is this easy.

A little something I learned in math class today that I wanted to share. This is how my teacher broke it down for me.

(Translated from my native language)

I have a very love-hate relationship with math. On one hand, when I get and understand it, I love it, and I feel proud of myself for understanding it. And when I don't get it, and have to spend long hours having one problem explained to me, I want to burn it, think it's stupid, and who the fuck made up rules like that, they barely make sense?? What were they on when they made those rules??

Like on one hand, as an alter, I hold dyslexia, and apparently that makes math easier for me and "lowers" dyscalculia, but on the other hand, who made these and can I have a friendly chat with them.

i hate the future

I love it!

The anonymous user posted this image to prompt a discussion on how little episodes of the 14 episode first season of Haruhi you would have to watch in order to watch them in every possible order, repeats included.

The thread eventually reached a working conclusion by divising a formula that would solve for any “n” length sequence. The thread’s findings were compiled on the mathsci wiki and titled “The Haruhi Problem.”

Last Monday (10/22/18), university mathematician Jay Pantone created a more professional looking assessment of their findings here. This lead to academia learning about 4chan’s unique findings and it’s being widely discussed.

The problem now is about credit. 4chan being an anonymous image board, there’s no one to cite for the findings.

I cannot fucking believe

Why do I think like this… 🤣

Nice triangle!

I’ve watched this so many times today

fuck every other personality test, reblog this with your sign and whether you were better at algebra or geometry

As someone who struggles with math, this feels like it shouldn’t be possible because of all the odd numbers in it. Every time I see odd numbers in a problem, I’m like “ugh this is going to be SUPER difficult” because it typically is—in my experience, they just don’t add/subtract/multiply/divide neatly like even numbers do. (Can’t explain it much better than that; working with even numbers is just marginally easier for me.) And yet here is an example of an odd number dividing by another odd number very neatly...which feels like somebody proving that the sky is in fact green and the grass is blue 🤣

Two Dendritic Julia sets “Mating” to cover the sphere.

From the AMS-MAA Invited Address, What is the shape of a rational map? by Sarah Koch, University of Michigan. (Abstract) (paper 1) (paper 2)

Hear her discuss her talk and what it’s about here!

More about the Mating process and other videos of various types of Julia sets mating here!

Platonic Solids and its nets.

They’re doing crunches. You know, to stay in shape.

All polygons are just spheres but not yet

Jonathan Gleason was my friend who committed suicide just over a month ago… and I just found out that he wrote this 800+ page analysis textbook. By himself. Because he was teaching analysis and he was dissatisfied with the textbook he was assigned so he just…. wrote his own.

Even if you haven’t done any math… please just take a look at this. Scroll through it as fast as you like. It’s incredible that he put so much work and so much free time into this… I’m still in awe and I really want everyone to see it. In particular, if you want a good laugh, look at chapter 5 of the analysis textbook. The opening paragraph is SO Johnny.

He also wrote a linear algebra textbook, here. 

I really want to thank everyone who has reblogged/liked this, and even anyone who just clicked on the link to check it out. I wasn’t expecting more than a handful of notes on this, so knowing that his hard work gets shared and even appreciated by a few strangers really means a lot.

I’ve taken some of the best/easiest to follow snippets and provide them here, I hope you enjoy them as much as I have:

“Da fuq”.

Oh thank god.

At least he admits when he’s being sloppy.

God, I wish more math textbooks read like this.

And last but not least, my absolute favorite part, the opening to the chapter on integration.

There are so many more tidbits like this and I wish literally all of my textbooks could be written like this.

Jonothan Gleason died Jan 16th, 2018 and it means so much to me that so many people got a kick out of the little pieces of him that are in this book. Thanks for all of the rb’s and likes, I’m so happy that even just a few hundred people got to enjoy his writing and hard work.

Every single odd number has an “e” in it.

LISTEN-

Not all of them. 30 and 50 aren’t spelled with the letter e in it …

father god 

…if you can split a number in half evenly, it’s even. 30 and 50 are odd.

-_-’

(15+15=30

25+25=30)

25+25 = 30? You sure about that??

Lord have mercy….

Bye

3 days into 2018 smh

LMAOOOOOOO

One

Three

Five

Nine

And since everything else after that is a variant of these numbers, then all odds have the letter ‘E’.

🗣YOU FORGOT SEVEN!!

It keeps getting worse.

LMAOOO WHAT IS GOING ON

My head hurts…

This is why that Tumblr University shit was the dumbest idea ever just look at this

who failed yall?

IM SCREAMING

You whole ass forgot about eight - a number with an e and is pretty fucking even

why would 8 be brought up if it’s EVEN in a post about ODDS??????? the post said “every single ODD number has an ‘e’ in it” not “every single number with an ‘e’ is odd” what the fuck

3 days until 2019 and we’re still here

happy New year’s eve

I’m going to bring this flaming dumpster into 2019 so future generations can see what a mistake Tumblr was

Er, guys two is odd and doesn’t have an e. Just saying…

did you deadass just try to tell me two is odd? i’m fucking crying throw the whole website away

Reblogging for the last one😂

The one thing I notice is that no matter how much you want to throw this site away, you just can’t.

TWO IS ODD?!?! PFFFTT I’M SCREAMING

Wait what about zero that’s an odd number ,no?

ok but hear me out fifty and thirty make up for the fact they have no e by the way they are pronounces third-E fifth-E

bro why do 30 and 50 matter THEY’RE FUCKING EVEN

what the actual fuck is happening

1 is an even number

I’m gonna smack you

-30 and -50 have an e in them

Wait why are we so quick to throw away the Zero idea

Zero isn’t a number

It can’t be divided by two though, can it

It can??? 0/2=0??

OD NUMBERS

onE

thrEE

fivE

sEvEn

ninE

OD numbers huh?

Anything that ends with a 0,2,4,6,8 is even and the rest is odd (1,3,7,9) stop freaking out y’all

YOU FORGOT 5

DUDE WHAT ABOUT FOUR

What about it?????

THAT DOESN’T HAVE E IN IT

THAT’S BECAUSE IT’S EVEN?????

A R E Y O U G U Y S O K A Y

IM FUCKIN SOBBING HAVAGAFDHFDHHBJJ

im rblogging this again oof

Is it too late to change my major after I already received the degree? Asking for a friend… 😣

What happened to y'all?

Who pronounces it fifth-e
