Moreover, the area of *any* shape in the plane increases by a factor of 𝑛² when you scale it up by a factor of n. (Welcome to what "two dimensional" really means, or maybe what "area" means.) So this identity about numerical squares and cubes lets you try to play tiling games with any planar geometric shape. For 2025 specifically, we want something with n=9, and that is delightfully the equilat

I learn so many things from doing puzzles.
For example this week I learned that Connections creator Wyna Liu does not have the cot-caught distinction.

Okay okay actually just one more thing. My *favorite* open question about the Partridge problem is this: Is there *any* planar shape at all which solves it with 𝑛=2??
That is, is there any planar shape P where one copy of P and two copies of double-sized P can be fit together to make a triple-sized P? The areas work out, since 1+4+4=9, that same identity again.
Last year I briefly thought I foun

My favorite part of being randomly chosen for a mail survey by Gallup is that they include $2 in the form of two $1 bills... with consecutive serial numbers.

Back on June 19th I learned about SHOWER BEER — new to me, but https://www.reddit.com/r/showerbeer/ (NSFW ofc) has been around since 2011 so I'm just way behind. But then Dinosaur Comics mentioned shower beer on June 26, so I'm guessing I…

@futurebird This seems like your kind of fun.
Happy a^2+b^2=c^2 day to all who celebrate.
I would just like to say that Katie Hoody's NYTimes crossword puzzle today has an absolutely beautiful grid. Nice puzzle too! But just look at that in black and white.

Anyway, I've asked the Linus Tech Tips guys if they would run the n=13 search, over at https://linustechtips.com/topic/1612153-this-world-record-took-years-and-a-million-dollars/page/2/#comment-16732910. We'll see if they take me up on it…
Well, with 300 trillion digits, you are almost certain to have seen all 12-digit sequences, and if the digits were random then there would be around a 39.2% chance that you'd have seen all 13-digit sequences. With only 200T digits there w…
There's no proof, but pi is probably a normal number (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_number), meaning in particular that every sequence of n decimal digits should appear in it, in approximately 1/(10^n) of the possible locations. (T…
So last week Linus Media Group, i.e. the folks behind YouTube channel Linus Tech Tips, announced a new record of having calculated 300 trillion decimal digits of pi.
