US politics has dragged the globe into a B and W slagging match but really we need to delve deep into the details: read bylaws, small print. What will this affect? Rise from the playground, let’s work together on the solutions instead of bitching about the problems and ignoring the vast grey areas.

While mathematicians have succeeded in showing the irrationality of some numbers, such as π and e, for most other numbers it remains frustratingly hard to prove. But a new method is now allowing mathematicians to do so for a slew of important numbers.

Rational or Not? This Basic Math Question Took Decades to Answer. | Quanta Magazine
It’s surprisingly difficult to prove one of the most basic properties of a number: whether it can be written as a fraction. A broad new method can help settle this ancient question.

Physicists have seen the “smoking gun” signature of semi-Dirac fermions in a crystal of ZrSiS. These quasiparticles have a peculiar property: they only behave like they have mass when they’re moving in a certain direction. 🧪⚛️
