Math to enjoy after 33 weeks of Amateur Hour in the Oval Office and on the golf course:
1) Very brief article touching on math learning and ‘linguistic relativity’:
2) “Persiflage” gets a few things off their chest:
3) The September “Carnival of Mathematics” blog entry awaits you:
4) “Computational Complexity” takes on a “FiveThirtyEight” Riddler problem:
5) A nice listing of some math YouTube channels:
6) Blackboards instead of desks…:
7) Tim Gowers on the recent account of two infinities found to be equal:
