I've finally put together the blog post accompanying a lecture that @neeldhara.bsky.social invited me to give over a year ago - which happened about a year after @shriram.bsky.social got us to start thinking about it :)

Eventual consistency, I guess. :)

Dedicated to Prof Shriram Krishnamurthi, who incited the exploration into this area, and to Prof Neeldhara Misra, who invited me to give a version of this talk to her class at IIT Gandhinagar.

This is true.

But what makes this tragic is that the numbers we use everyday (1,2,3..etc) are formally known as the Hindu-Arabic number system!

So it takes a special combination of racism & ignorance to hate what something is called without realising one has been using it all along!

what a complete load of cobblers that poem is! :D

also the ignorance :)

I wonder how her tiny little brain would explode if she realizes they are more formally known as "Hindu-Arabic numerals" :D

Look, we're going to be trying to come up with a catch-all name for this group of scoundrels, and based on the emails we've seen, might I suggest "Illiterati"?
