Got a full box of the Hagoromo chalk from my student. Legend has it that you can't make mistakes on the board with this brand.

Had a great time at the MANU career talk hosting Mercy Mukami (Postbank) & Pasquale Matogi (Fortera). Grateful for their insights on career choices & mentorship. Pasquale, my former student, inspired the students proving mathematicians thrive in the real world! #Mentorship #Careers #Mathematics

We could go on about how we welcome publishers, we don't demote links, we encourage independent developers to build apps and extensions on top of Bluesky's network.... but instead, we'll show you.

All thanks to the incredible community here! 🦋

learnt about statsbombpy from ‪@liamhenshaw.com‬ and used networkx and mplsoccer in Python 3 to draw the passing network for Nigeria team in Afcon2023 and here is the output. The nodes are randomly picked points on the pitch. (Based on Nigeria Vs Cote d'Ivoire game )
