hi welcome to my fashion blog, today we discuss how many genders we can thwart at once
Base phi (phinary) is like binary. Instead of using 2, it uses the irrational number phi (golden ratio)
It works similarly to fibonacci numbers. Consecutive digits add up to the next:
11=100
11110=101000
What’s cool is that it makes it easy to do maths with some irrational numbers. Most non-recurring base phi numbers are irrational; however, these are the integers:
1= 1
2= 10.01
3= 100.01
4= 101.01
5= 1000.1001
So… this may be a bit left field, but I want to make base phi a meme…

Hey folks, please refresh my memory. Is there a FOSS workalike to Evernote?
Hi, my wife made a podcast. Please boost!
She's feeling quite insecure about it, but it's really good! Please go listen and tell her what you think 🙂
It's a fantasy story about a necromancer. It's creepy and characterful and really cool!
I earned a B+ in real analysis. My god was that class challenging! I don’t think I’ve ever worked so hard in a math class...
Reclaiming RSS
“Before Twitter, before algorithmic timelines filtered our reality for us, before surveillance capitalism, there was RSS: Really Simple Syndication … As we move away from the centralised web to the peer web, it’s time to rediscover, re-embrace, and reclaim RSS.”
Separate the art from the artist?
ABSOLUTELY NOT. When you read my comic I want you to imagine me also reading it with you, over your shoulder.
If you're eating tortilla chips or pretzels while reading it, mime giving one to me every so often.

It's #FollowFriday! Here are some #alternatives to follow:
@cloutstream CloutStream: An open source federated alternative to LinkedIn, just launched its new website
@Chocobozzz Chocobozzz: Lead developer of #PeerTube, the ethical alternative to YouTube
@Purism Purism: Makers of privacy-oriented computers and the upcoming Librem5 smartphone
@fdroidorg F-Droid: The open source alternative to Google Play
@krita Krita: Open source painting software aimed at artists and illustrators
Okay. You know what? I'm instituting a new thing. You can participate if you want to but there's no shame if you don't.
I'm gonna call it #BeMyNeighborWeek in honor of the 50th anniversary of "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood". (I'm four months late, shh.)
Until 12:01 AM on June 24, I'm going to try to be like Mr. Rogers. No sick burns, no scoring points, no annoyed brush-offs. I will do my best to be patient and kind and understanding.
You can be my neighbor if you'd like.
I love how fediverse things use 'client-username' @ 'server-domainname'
And they look like email addresses,
And email is old and we all know about it but it IS federated! :DD
And it's like, user@domain.tld is just the syntax of a user address in a federated system, and email was the only federated system anyone knew about so we thought of things in that syntax as "email addresses" when they're really just federated addresses! \:D/

Often, when I am reading a good book, I stop and thank my teacher. That is, I used to, until she changed her number.
Survived the real analysis midterm.
The classical Axiom of Choice is obviously wrong: the more tasks you have to do, the more difficult it is to choose where to start, now recall that there are infinitely many tasks…
Q: Why do the French only have one egg for breakfast? A: Because one egg is un oeuf.
PSA: the Q in my screenname is not an abbreviation.
I'm trying to come up with a good concrete example of a sequence that is bounded but doesn't converge and a subsequence that converges in order to illustrate the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem. So far all I've got is the harmonic function, which is kind of a trivial and uninteresting subsequence ;) Anyone have suggestions?
