STOP DOING MATH

NUMBERS WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE GIVEN NAMES

YEARS OF COUNTING yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for going higher than your FINGERS

Wanted to go higher anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called “GUESSING”

“Yes please give me ZERO of something. Please give me INFINITY of it” - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged

LOOK at what Mathematicians have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the calculators & abacus we built for them

(This is REAL Math, done by REAL Mathematicians):

(Plots of the absolute value of the complex Gamma function, a mesh plot of |arctan(z^(-5))|, a compound of five cubes)

“Hello I would like (Riemann surface for the function f(z) = √z ) apples please”

They have played us for absolute fools

    Reminds me of an Ursula K Le Guinn short story where numerals were heresay and people needed to use special slide rulers to do any computation.
