Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss figured out how to make a heptadecagon (a symmetrical 17-sided shape) & used it to solve a 2,000-year-old problem. He was 18. And he considered this his greatest achievement. scientificamerican.com/article…

"Lemniscating"

Another math-meditation, this time over lemniscate spirals, bells and an ambient sound...

Inspired by @fractalkitty 🙂

In my series of Tooll3 point generators, today I created first a lemniscate, but then extended it to be able to create lemnispirals by varying the radius over time.

Oh giggles, "TruthSocial" has a lie on every single page with:

"Proudly made in the United States of America. 🇺🇸"

Ripped and rebranded he means I guess

Open source doesn't mean you "created" it Donny Lier

By the way, the guy who forked Mastodon is also on the Fediverse. I bet he has many interesting stories from that time. @0461fcbecc4c3374439932d6b8f11269ccdb7cc973ad7a50ae362db135a474dd



A sign I’ve arrived in an advanced #transit society: the first thing I see outside my hotel window is overhead wires for the city buses.

#Switzerland was one of the earliest nations to electrify its train network. Now 70 % of its electricity comes from hydro/solar …

Trump is trying to incite a pogrom.

Mere weeks before the election, he has about a 50:50 chance to get back to the White House.

As president, he could then use the racist frenzy he and Vance caused as justification for mobilizing the federal government to “cleanse” the nation.

in reply to Thomas Zimmer

A pattern that has led to the worst mass crimes in history:

A regime targets certain groups as dangerous “Others” who poison the nation.

The propaganda incites a storm of violence.

Having created what it now calls an “untenable situation,” the regime declares it must act.

in reply to Thomas Zimmer

To “restore order,” the regime enacts a host of measures against the “Other”: Mass arrests, discriminatory legislation, “orderly” purges in the form of deportations.

But the situation will soon be “untenable” again: After more propaganda, more pogroms - leading to more extreme measures.

Trump is an automatic lying machine.

He is a loser and not fit to run a lemonade stand, let alone a whole country.
