it's wild that one of the most useful facts in functional analysis is that 1/2 + 1/2 = 1

No one: "why are these called linear differential equations"
I'm glad you asked:
I am particularly reminded of this quote today from The Newsroom:
"You know what, kiddo? In the old days... of about ten minutes ago... we did the news well. You know how? We just decided to."

unironically believe that before all this stuff, this is still pretty much the only reason to do a PhD in math at least. this is the only reason that is canon event mental breakdown every other month proof
oop totally misremembered the exponents in the Loomis-Whitney argument in my recent tweet -- thanks for pointing this out (apologies I can't recall who did). in any case,
(1) R^n >> R^d
(2) whenever induction on dimension works by a Hölder argument *chefs kiss*
studying for quals, came across this quote by Sid Port "The one thing probabilists can do which analysts can't is stop-- and they have never forgiven us for it."
Anyone else keep a math "scientific" journal? Honestly it's been so helpful for studying for quals, thanks to my 7th grade science teacher for teaching me how to set one of these up
signed up for a last minute lighting talk; I can now officially say I've given a chalk talk at Renyi (asterisk of course, it wasn't a full lecture lol)

It's an April Fools joke but a true one. Everything on those billboards was actually proposed in 1947.
It's only a joke now because of how unbelievable it is that we'd actually do it.
Let's go deep on how we broke America's first subway and how to fix it.
i get people complaining about how short the final battle with vecna is, but let's face it the general public is not ready for a multi hour long battle (as it would take in actual DND). Most DND bosses involve chipping away at HP, strategy, and trying not to die and that happened
Putting together a short list of math resources for people might be interested and thought this line was funny

Replying to @rieszspieces
me when i bring my "the reals are the completion of the rationals" gun to the "is 0.999... equal to 1" knife fight
Same with Zane Donovan from the TV show Eureka
New result out that I am really really proud of! It's been work in progress for the last 2 years
