The Remarkable Way We Eat Pizza - Numberphile

Cliff Stoll discusses a "Remarkable Theorem", Gaussian curvature and pizza.
More links & stuff in full description below ↓↓↓

Postscript note from Cliff: "Cliff says he forgot to mention that at each point, he calls an outward going curve positive, and an inward going curve negative. He also neglected to say that saddle points have negative Gaussian curvature. Finally, he insists that the frozen pizza shown in this video is inferior to his wife's homemade pizza. But both have zero Gaussian curvature."

I didn't even know that a person could even be this excited.

"Mum, Grandad is drawing on the food again!"

[toastghost]

I have seen this man, who is reportedly a physicist, work as a mathematician, robotics engineer, computer programmer, historical restorationist, knitter, weaver, amateur glassblower, and businessman. I don't even have a proper response to that, except that I'm not sure I'd be surprised if it turns out he was also a master thief or astronaut or anything else, too.

[jakobiia]

This saved my degree in pizza engineering.

[jgallantyt]

I absolutely love this guy. His passion can make you feel excited about any topic. I really really enjoy watching him.

"Pizzas don't like to do that."

Thank you for letting me know.

gauss knocked at every door and slapped everyones pizza out their hand til they ate it right. a real hero that guy

[mebthegirl]

An orange is an orange, a banana is a banana, but a bagel is a torus.

[DrScrubbington]

Why can't all math teachers be as hyped as this guy?

[hadierturk]

This enthusiastic math grandpa made my day.

[shinjinobrave]

But can you make a pizza in the shape of a Klein Bottle?

[experiment]

If you ever want to be happy in life, find something and love it as much as this guy loves geometry.

[SuperNetworkJoe]

I like how he just calmly pulls out:
A Bagel
A Banana
An Orange

[danielfgri]

Find someone who loves you the way this man loves math

[Meanie]

"Honey, why does all the food have sharpie marks on it?" - "Gauss..."

[WatchmakerErik]

Today, a bagel got ruined, for mathematics.

[lucaslucas]

I love how he starts whispering "Curvature stays the same" XD

All the people on numberphile love math but this guy is different. He loves math so much that some might call it crazy. I call it smart.

[CatastrophicalPencil]

This man does two things to me.

1. I become hungry.

2. I experience joy.

An orange = A sphere
A bagel = A torus
A pizza = A flat surface
A banana = A banana
