Besides US bigtech, Huawei is hiring countless top #mathematicians in Europe. Why are the global European players too blind to see that true innovation will be driven from the foundational level, not just from applied engineering? So much talent here, but so little ambition in corporate strategy.

Saw this nascent #macropad for #mathematicians and thought of #mathstodon
Their slogan is "Type equations at the speed of thought with this specialized keypad".

I'm not a mathematician, so if I've missed any hashtags out please feel free to add them by reply!
As a mathematically not-so-sophisticated #EE/#CS bloke, I sometimes wonder whether those bona fide #mathematicians and #physicists (or those EE/CS folks who had attained such heights of mathematical sophistication) view me as a "maths carpenter".
Oh hey, hang on there. There's nothing wrong with being a carpenter or a mason; these callings predate mathematics and physics by several millennia. They kick-started the human civilisation, and they continue to grow it. Still, I wonder....

Of course this was known to many famous #mathematicians, like #Euler and #Jacobi and they solved the equations in terms of #EllipticIntegrals. I find it satisfying to be able to visualize the #dynamics of the this system, using #FreeSoftware, such as #WxMaxima.
I know that there is quite some #mathematicians and friends of #mathematics here. Maybe one of you can point me toward a short(ish) youtube video that teaches the very basics of set theory?

Garden @sellathechemist #ClassicKit index page now open in a browser tab that will probably remain there until I can't restore it any more. Haven't #mathematicians got there own site/page for their obscure survivors where Klein could be celebrated without the help of creatives modelling their stuff for them in Real Matter?
So good to see liberal America standing up to the Trumpian threat today. A strange thing happened to me as I followed the topical posts.
Each time I saw the #HandsOff hashtag, what my brain read instead was #Hausdorff, for Felix Hausdorff, the eminent mathematician.
To my shame, I knew nothing about Felix Hausdorff the man. To me as a former Berliner and an emigree to England, Hausdorff sounded like an East Prussian landed-gentry name, I expected a Junker. Wrong. Today I learnt that Felix Hausdorff was in fact Jewish. He, his wife and his sister in law escaped the death camps by suicide, in 1942. (His daughter Lenore survived.) I never knew.
So there really is a hidden connection between today's encouraging #HandsOff news and Felix Hausdorff, the great thinker who was exposed to the same evil of unchecked state power that threatens us today, and against which today's protests took a stance.

Happy birthday to one of greatest #mathematicians of all time Emmy Noether (1882-1935), here with her eponymous theorem, the backbone of modern physics. Noether’s theorem links any symmetry of a system with a conservation law. In my portrait, I chose to depict a young Emmy in front of a blackboard with a more simple formulation of her theorem and three specific applications of it, shown schematically,

Happy #Nowruz to all who celebrate. Makes much more sense to me to celebrate the #NewYear at the beginning of spring on an astronomically significant day rather than on some odd, astronomically insignificant day in mid-winter. I mean, what’s up with that anyway? So to celebrate Nowruz, which BTW is observed by an enormous population including in Iran, Central and South Asia, I’m posting a short video memorial to one of the greatest #mathematicians ever, who happened to be an #Iranian woman, Maryam Mirzakhani. The first woman to win the Field’s Prize, math’s equivalent to the Nobel, Mirzakhani broke barriers and forever changed her chosen field. A Harvard graduate and former professor at both Princeton and Stanford, she deserves more attention than she gets. Regrettably, she died far too young at 40. May the new year bring us more genius minds like hers. #math #mathematics #STEM #WomenInSTEM #science
(LordMatt) #Mathematicians finally find the #infinite card #game. (Stand Up Maths)
Look out for the #Mastodon mention towards the end.
Someone's in a bad way today and has spent the day watching game shows. 
Which makes me think, while I was unable to avoid for a while:
#GameShow for #mathematicians. Instead of points, contestants get one of an increasingly complex series of equations. At the end the winner is decided by a race to evaluate the sum of all the equations they have won, excluding contestants with no equations won. So the real test is deciding when to stop giving correct answers and start playing for laughs.
Just a little under a month left to apply for our International Visitor Program (until 18 Feb)- open to #mathematicians in all fields. Our visitor program allows you to spend time in a collaborative, creative research environment in Sydney. More details: https://bit.ly/3XqOxxK
Sydney Mathematical Research Institute · International Visitor Program - Sydney Mathematical Research InstituteIVP August 2023 applications are due 8 August 2023, for July 2024–June 2025 visits (general applicants) & March 2024–June 2025 for Australian citizens/PR & NZ citizens.

“Scientists, particularly mathematicians, cannot remain indifferent to the ongoing genocide in Gaza, especially as Western powers appear to support this crime against humanity politically, diplomatically, and militarily,” they wrote.
Mathematicians denounce Israel’s genocide in Gaza

More than 1,000 mathematicians have signed an open letter calling on their colleagues to “cease all scientific collaboration with Israeli institutions that do not explicitly condemn the genocide in Gaza and the illegal colonisation of Palestine”.
You can read their letter in full here.

Why is it "bidens" #LNG-export study? He is president but its #scientist, #economist and #mathematicians that identified and presented these #facts. How about;
A fact based study by economist and others has shown that LNG exports will increase the cost that #Americans will pay for energy by as much as 30%. This may be viewed by #conservatives as just another #inconvenient fact to be ignored.
#democracy is more than voting.
