"I am switching between three different programming languages continuously, so I am little confused" - My numerical analysis prof. I forgive him considering he's graphing formulas in LaTeX in real time. I am enthralled with this guy. He constantly says small stuff like, "These are my coefficients, they're kind of crazy" , and it just makes the lessons kinda charming. I have only ever seen him use default kde graphical apps or firefox on openSuse too so it really does feel like he catering to my sensibilities even with computers. He's also the kind of guy who asks his class of like six people if it's okay for him to do another example he thinks is cool before he does it, and when we all chuckle at the notion of a professor asking us if it's okay for him to do an example, he goes "is it not okay?" |

any cool new chrocheted items by audrey? no unfortunately i have not had the time recently. im hoping to get back into it more over the summer your comment actually inspired me to finally finish this cardigan that had been sitting unfinished in my room for about a month, so thank you! |

Is it a common occurrence for a proofs question which says to prove a statement to not be true? Like is the word prove being used a a shorthand for the proof process such that disproving the statement is correct, or does asking me to prove something imply that it is true and I just have to prove it? I just took a proofs exam and am trying to figure out how well I did in the time before I get it back graded. yea ive definitely gotten questions like that on exams before. im not 100% if i understand your question, but in my experience if you are asked to prove something is not true, a counterexample is all that is necessary. if you are told to prove that something is true, that is when you would do the formal proof process. "prove" does not always mean you have to write a formal proof, it is all dependent on context The question said "prove x" oh i see. if it just says “prove x” then that means x should be true. the only time it could be false is if it asked “prove or disprove” or just “disprove”. what was the statement? are you sure it was actually false? I'm pretty sure it did just say prove, but I don't remember the rest of the question all that well off the top of my head, hence I am not sure that it was false. For every m =8j, there are two perfect numbers a and b, |a - b| = m , where a*b is a perfect square. The degree to which I fucked the ball on this question is too humiliating to explain. |

If you were president of all math reform, what math would you get reformed? definitely move away from standardized testing. im not even really a big fan of exams or tests for math in general. i think shifting more towards project-based assessment where students have to utilize mathematical skills for real-world problem solving is a much better way of assessing knowledge than through tests. i also think there should be more integration of technology into math education. although honestly a lot problems within mathematics stem from the way that schools are structured to prioritize to hit certain scores or grades in order to be "successful", and neglecting to encourage creativity and deeper learning in math. i think there needs to be significant overhaul in how we measure mathematical competence in schools I generally agree with the projects > tests sentiment. after getting to college i have realized just how much tech had been underutilized in math before now and how much other students do not understand how to use technology to help them learn. a little anecdote: i tutored this one student with dylsexia and he was much better at learning geometrically than analytically. i would try to explain something algebraically and it went completely over his head, but when i showed him the same exact thing graphically in desmos, it instantly clicked for him. It strikes me that a lot of teachers just teach with what they know. Do you think that as people like yourself who are capable of explaining these concepts better using software age into more senior teaching and curriculum deciding positions, that these things might just become standard in a few years? Or is it your opinion that current pedagogy constrains teachers to very formalized ways of doing things and there needs to be some systemic change? Something else entirely? to your first question, absolutely. i mean im already seeing it first hand with the curriculum at my university. most of the older professors really dislike technology and barely understand how to use canvas. they refuse to do anything other than lecture with a chalk board because that is all they know how to do. younger profs however use so much more technology in their courses and i just find it provides a lot more support. like for example, one of the younger professors at my university who is also a curriculum developer created an online platform for lectures, supplemental material, practice, and homework for pretty much all of the 1000/2000 math courses. so there is definitely a shift towards technology and i predict that this will become fairly standard in the future. damn sorry i did not mean to write that much lmao. this is just something i am really interested in To be fair, I asked the question and have indeed already read your response, so I wouldn't say you wrote too much at all. I don't really have anything more to add on the topic, but your opinions here are all coherent and would be persuasive if I wasn't already more or less on the same page. |

What's the best math you've done recently. The best CS I've done recently is this https://docs.google.com/document/d/121E5m86eA_xrN7jTKkGKhMx1NZ5hyu6P8ClNV-iiCF8/edit?usp=sharing i skimmed through your document, what exactly is this algorithm for? i saw the word roblox so now i am very curious lmao. also it is rather unfortunate you haven't had any enjoyable math experiences as of recent. Player clustering for a roblox battle game that a friend runs. It's supposed to encourage staying in groups by making you weaker when you are away from other players. oh that sounds interesting! and yea fourier transforms aren't necessarily hard there is just a lot of material to memorize about it and it can be very easy for me to mix things up lol |

r u excited for the new faye webster album tonite OMGG i did not know that she came out with a new album!! i am listening to it now tho so thank you lol. i expect it will be amazing as per usual no problem i was excited when i remembered it was coming out the other day would love to hear what ur fav song is off the album when u finish it by coolhotdog; ; Report after my first listen, my initial favs are "but not kiss" and "underdressed at the symphony". i was not expecting there to be so much heavy ass autotune, but i think it worked well for her and was fun. overall, a very enjoyable album!! what did you think? i definitely wish there was maybe a few more songs on the album but i enjoyed it! my fav is definitely but not kiss i was able to see her in concert back in october and she opened with that one and it sounded so good by coolhotdog; ; Report omg you got to see her?? im so jealous!! also yea i completely agree that i wish it was a bit longer. overall, really enjoyable tho! ya i didnt have the best view but it was still very nice! also from what i see on ur profile we like a lot of the same artists if u have any music reccs pls let me know trying to find new stuff by coolhotdog; ; Report gladly! im a big weyes blood fan, so i will never miss the chance to plug her music, especially her album "titanic rising". some other albums i think you might like are "masterpiece" by big theif, "blue bell knoll" by cocteau twins, "crumbling" by mid-air theif (very fun atmospheric listen), and "yume" by lamp. i would also love some music recs if you have any :) i love lamp! and of course i’ll dm you them so i’m not blowing up ur comments section by coolhotdog; ; Report |

My numerical analysis teacher said my proof about unitary matrices was written like an AI wrote it. :( omg thats so wild that you mention that because one of my profs just accused me of using ai to write a response when i didnt. are they still giving you credit for your assignment? |

How has the new semester been for you so far? pretty chill so far but its definitely gonna blow up in my face soon. how about you? If there was someone following you around with a war drum, what kind of rhythm do you think they would be playing? hmm i honestly have no idea. definitely something quite silly. someone following me all day playing a loud ass drum right behind me sound like such a nightmare tho tbh |

i can never remember trig identities, which is proving more and more a problem the further i go on in this path. do you have any mnemonic devices to remember them? which trig identities in particular? if it is any condolence i can still never remember the double angle trig identities despite years of using them lol. i have a trick for the pythagorean identities if youre struggling with those. all identities. i am bad. all i know is soh cah toa haha yea i am also not a fan of timed exams. unfortunately for you (and me) there are not a lot of ways to remember them other than just memorizing a few and using them to derive others. for example, if you remember sin^2x+cos^2x=1, it's really straightforward to derive the other two pythaogorean identities by just dividing everything by sin or cos. you can derive pretty much every other trig identity as long as you know the sum formulas for cos and sin, tho im not sure how helpful that is on a timed exam. i would really encourage just taking some time to try and derive the various identities to maybe better help your understanding of where they come from so it doesnt feel like they are just some abstract formulas you have to memorize |

If you could form one element in tiny amounts at a time between your fingers, what would it be? I think I'd go with gold or hydrogen or perhaps something radioactive. would i be negatively affected by a radioactive element? if not, my initial thought was francium, as that is the most rare and valuable element. upon further research, though, i have found that it is very difficult to handle and decays very quickly, so im not sure that would be the most profitable for me. so maybe californium, another incredibly valuable element that is much easier to handle (still radioactive, though). if i were negatively affected by radioactivity, then probably rhodium or iridium. Wanna go more into depth on why rhodium and iridium were your picks then? Still just to sell? |

SMC member spotted. have you watched Sonatine yet? lol it took me the longest time to figure out what you meant by SMC. and no, i havent seen sonatine, but i see that it’s score was done by joe hisaishi so now i am very compelled to watch ! lemme know what you think of it if/when you get around to it. i'm not sure if fawkes'd agree, but in my eyes, watching it at least once is like a rite of passage. to be honest, i am not a big movie person and am unfamiliar with most of the names you are dropping, but it is still really cool to read about! i will let you know what i think about solatine :) SMC still hasn't seen sonatine actually. I was the main mover of getting it recommended in my circles, but having seen it three times now, I haven't been plugging it so often. |

Thoughts on the spacehey app? i downloaded it, opened once, and have not touched since. i think i prefer browser tbh, but maybe that is just out of familiarity I will not be using the spacehey app to view profiles, but I think it works well just as a way to get notifications. idk i kind of like not getting notifs from spacehey. its always a fun little surprise when i open the site and see s notif |

I've been playing a lot of tf2 lately and mentally I am here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bw3lU5MX_zI interesting! i would say mentally i am here https://youtu.be/FR3i0qKzRvg?si=u7Z2mRZ8NkE8BsKw That's not how this works. Proof has to be given to establish that things exist, not vice versa. yea but the world was created in my image, so it is your responsibility to refute my claims with your own evidence |
lmao those are the best kinds of professors
