Marcel FröhlichBesides US bigtech, Huawei is hiring countless top <a class="hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23mathematicians" target="_blank">#mathematicians</a> in Europe. Why are the global European players too blind to see that true innovation will be driven from the foundational level, not just from applied engineering? So much talent here, but so little ambition in corporate strategy.

Dan Drake 🦆<a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/@doboprobodyne" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@doboprobodyne</a> one tiny problem with the "type equations at the speed of thought" -- most <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/mathematicians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mathematicians</a> can *already* type equations and such at the speed of thought, because TeX notation is so deeply ingrained in their brains/fingers. For example, if I'm thinking of \[ \int_0^{2\pi} \sin^2(x)\, dx \] then I just automatically type \int_0^{2\pi} \sin^2(x)\,mathrm{d}x without really thinking about it, and I don't have to take my hands off my keyboard.That said, it looks like a fun little device, especially if it's QMK compatible.

amen zwa, esq.As a mathematically not-so-sophisticated <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/EE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EE</a>/#CS bloke, I sometimes wonder whether those bona fide <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/mathematicians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mathematicians</a> and <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/physicists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#physicists</a> (or those EE/CS folks who had attained such heights of mathematical sophistication) view me as a "maths carpenter".Oh hey, hang on there.

the roamerSo good to see liberal America standing up to the Trumpian threat today. A strange thing happened to me as I followed the topical posts.Each time I saw the <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/HandsOff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HandsOff</a> hashtag, what my brain read instead was <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Hausdorff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Hausdorff</a>, for Felix Hausdorff, the eminent mathematician.To my shame, I knew nothing about Felix Hausdorff the man. To me as a former Berliner and an emigree to England, Hausdorff sounded like an East Prussian landed-gentry name, I expected a Junker. Wrong. Today I learnt that Felix Hausdorff was in fact Jewish. He, his wife and his sister in law escaped the death camps by suicide, in 1942. (His daughter Lenore survived.) I never knew. So there really is a hidden connection between today's encouraging <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/HandsOff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HandsOff</a> news and Felix Hausdorff, the great thinker who was exposed to the same evil of unchecked state power that threatens us today, and against which today's protests took a stance. <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Hausdorff" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Hausdorff</a><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/HandsOff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HandsOff</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Hausdorff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Hausdorff</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/FelixHausdorff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FelixHausdorff</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Shoah" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Shoah</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/mathematicians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mathematicians</a>

Charlie McHenryHappy <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/Nowruz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Nowruz</a> to all who celebrate. Makes much more sense to me to celebrate the <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/NewYear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NewYear</a> at the beginning of spring on an astronomically significant day rather than on some odd, astronomically insignificant day in mid-winter. I mean, what’s up with that anyway? So to celebrate Nowruz, which BTW is observed by an enormous population including in Iran, Central and South Asia, I’m posting a short video memorial to one of the greatest <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/mathematicians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mathematicians</a> ever, who happened to be an <a href="https://connectop.us/tags/Iranian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Iranian</a> woman, Maryam Mirzakhani. The first woman to win the Field’s Prize, math’s equivalent to the Nobel, Mirzakhani broke barriers and forever changed her chosen field. A Harvard graduate and former professor at both Princeton and Stanford, she deserves more attention than she gets. Regrettably, she died far too young at 40.

Instead of points, contestants get one of an increasingly complex series of equations. At the end the winner is decided by a race to evaluate the sum of all the equations they have won, excluding contestants with no equations won. So the real test is deciding when to stop giving correct answers and start playing for laughs.
