Algebra

A school subject taught by oft-dull teachers who use boring textbooks, and dreaded by millions of kids and their loved ones, which would otherwise have provided students a good training ground in learning how to face the unknowns, especially if they refused to trade their time for money later in life.
Algebra is too important to be left in the hands of school teachers and publishers—students need to take charge of their algebraic life unless they don’t mind becoming lifelong employees slaving for others.

Pi Dung

All the falsehoods, white lies, or fake news about the number π that conspiracy-minded Trumpublicans and QAnonists share on social media to their tribes, most of whom are ladle-fed with daily Fox News misinformation—for example, the googolth digit of π is the biblical value of 3; ET sent an apocalyptic message to earthlings on Pi Day via a Mar-a-Lago resort’s terminal.
