I swear McGill admin read this book as a self-help book
Just submitted my combinatorics exam. 5 years. Countless problem sets. A few disastrous midterms. Many, many cups of coffee and lovely conversations with friends about math. I'm done my undergrad. And in two days a master's student!
@taz_chu i love your explanation!! this is why i really like rewriting implications P→Q as ¬P∨Q, it feels like things become more obvious ∃x∈X( |x|≤1 → diam(X)≤2 ) unclear ∃x∈X( |x|>1 ∨ diam(X)≤2 ) clear! we know either some |x| is >1, or if not, diam(X)≤2
LOL. Final exams are not coming up. They're already in progress and end in 2 days. Also, don't arrest my classmates for peacefully protesting.

Seattle area! Come listen to a talk about restorative justice by one of our former Prison Math Project participants, Marshall Byers! It's happening Tuesday April 30th :)

McGill students and faculty deserve a Provost who knows the difference between reply all and forward & that tweet likes are public. Someone who can apologize other than through an Instagram comment. Someone without such contempt for our community.

amazed by the behavior of these "administrators." so many of them seem to have total—weirdly violent?—contempt for the kids upon whom their high salaries depend
Oh... and this one for the sexists
I only bought this because it pisses everyone — literally everyone — especially and deliciously racists, that I have it.
@colin_fraser integration is a much nicer operator (in a functional analysis sense) than differentiation, so these sorts of formal power series-type manipulations work and can be shown to converge. but this is still a pretty hand-wavy explanation.
As a Jew of conscience, I thoroughly reject tying my decades long vocal and public solidarity with the Palestinian cause and my thoroughly non-Zionist Judaism to celebrations of 10/7, to defenses of Hamas, or to justifications of mass violence against civilians.
My anti-Zionism is based on universalism, on the recognition of all persons as equal, and therefore it is totally at odds with any sort of "exhilaration" at the contemplation of violent, indiscriminate massacres. I loathe the violence of the Settlers as I loathe Hamas's violence.
I am really sick of the strict analogizing of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising with the mass murders that occurred on 10/7. It is morally obtuse and insults the memory of the brave souls who fought the Nazis in 1943.
What we need to do is push Waxman and others to see a different version of reality: one in which it *is* exhilarating to see Palestinians break free from imprisonment. I'd ask Waxman et al: if you'd seen the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, wouldn't it be breathtaking?

Halfway through Miller gave up as if he was being tortured. I've actually never seen that happen in a Chotiner interview before
New Interview: I talked to former Middle East peace negotiator Aaron David Miller about the contradictions of Biden’s Israel policy, and why American leaders are so reluctant to cause conflict with Israel. newyorker.com/news/q-and-a/b…
How does he do this? I'm legitimately asking. Wax ELI5s her research with a sentence that sounds like she had to say it to win a bet. Miller goes on record saying Biden doesn't care about Palestinians as much as Israelis. Dershowitz basically cries. How? x.com/virgil_30/stat…
Halfway through Miller gave up as if he was being tortured. I've actually never seen that happen in a Chotiner interview before
But out of all his Nice Young Man style bloodshed, the weirdest is Dershowitz and it's not close. less an interview than a therapy session abt the psychological ramifications of Dershowitz's cancellation, namely that Larry David won't talk to him anymore archive.is/diMib
Random shout-out to the Well-Ordering Theorem. Truly of the coolest theorems in math.
When you see a non-trivial integral, do you have some notion of what it means? (Besides the area under the curve)?

Without putting words in the author's mouth, I am a fan of the use of "heroic" when describing another work's contribution to mean "valuable calculations which I would personally not have had the stomach for".
Underappreciated superpower: actually enjoying long "horrible" tedious calculations.

the expression 'creates limits' is so confusing for me, somehow. i'd prefer 'borrows' or 'delegates' limits.
