“Rolling Mean” is a great name for a nerdy motorcycle gang

they’re terrifying - well, most of them aren’t, but one of them is REALLY terrifying, so in aggregate, they’re terrifying

i just flew here from math camp and boy are my arms toroid

Despite ongoing bad news the number of people per capita remains very stable, which is good news for

if you have 10 fingers, you have an above average number of fingers

while an average person will have 10 fingers, the global average for number of fingers is probably in the realm of 9.9999999… on account of more people having lost fingers than folks with extras (thanks, fireworks), which means that anybody with a full set is a teeny tiny fraction above the average

a lot of people think that it’s not possible for more than half of people to be above average:

it’s not intuitive

but if you have 10 people take a test, and 9 of them get an A, and 1 of them gets an F, then the average is just a little below an A and everybody who got an A is above average: 90% of people scored above average, 10% of people scored below average.

you have a median number of fingers.

Say I have a cake. I divide the cake in two: now I have half of a cake. Then, I divide the cake in one half: now I have one cake. Math!

it’s funny, I went to a longhouse one time on a class trip and I was really confused, I was like “this is a widehouse”, but then my teacher pivoted me 90 degrees and I was like “oh, I get it now”

there are 10 kinds of people

people who understand hexadecimal

people who don’t

and E other kinds of people with properties immaterial to the joke at hand
