Like an hour ago, my kids decided they were mathematicians and began a series of investigations (on their own). 1+2+⋯+10=55 11+12+⋯+20=155 21+22+⋯+30=255 etc. They conjectured the general theorem. Pretty exciting.

A nice proof without words of the Pythagorean Theorem by Abu' l'Hasan Thâbit ibn Qurra Marwân al'Harrani (826-901) with 6 congruent 📐. The total area 𝓐 can be seen in two ways : 1⃣ 𝓐=🟥+ 3 📐 2⃣ 𝓐=🟩+🟦+3📐 So 🟥=🟩+🟦 @CutTheKnotMath proof #24

5-stars were commonly used on the ceilings of tombs and other buildings in Ancient Egypt to depict the heavens. They are usually not connected to one another, but they are connected in this ceiling in the Ptolemaic Denderah Temple to form a sort of tessellation.

1000 candies on a table each considered a pile of size 1. A "move" consists of taking three piles of the same size, eating one of them and combining the other two to make a bigger pile. What is the largest number of moves you could possibly conduct?

Here's a nice "proof without words": The sum of the squares of several positive values can never be bigger than the square of their sum. This picture helps make sense of how ℓ₁ and ℓ₂ norms regularize and sparsify solutions (resp.). [1/n]

I only realize now that it was an april fools' post... I'm relieved and disappointed at the same time.
It's finally happened: after several unsuccessful attempts, I found a prompt that got Grok to solve a maths problem (the well-known Dubnovy Blazen problem in graph theory) I've been working on for over a year. How long till it's better than human mathematicians across the board?
