Why Pi is Awesome (Vi Hart Rebuttal)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[ranjith]

I know all digits of pi. Just not in order.

Edit: Took this from a Numberphile video comment.

When the 2 quietest and smartest kids in class have a heated argument and everyone takes notes and grabs popcorn.

Seven years later this video still holds up

Can’t wait for mathematicians to create a ‘Phi Day’

"how would you rate your pain"
"Pi"
"What"
"Small but never ending"

[TheDragonCat]

I can't believe that two of my favorite people on this website are arguing....

....over Pi.

[ImagikaAli]

My gosh, I want James to just keep on talking about math stuff for ten hours straight

[KoreanMungBeanSproutSalad]

Just wanna say, seven years later, this will forever be one of the classic Youtube videos for me. As a massive Vi Hart fan, this video is the reason I found TheOdd1sOut, which introduced me to the whole comic/animation side of YouTube. Good stuff James, keep it up

"you can't square pi and get like, ten"
Engineers: *confused screaming*

[korosensie]

When the two smart students have different answers

[instinx]

what's cooler about pi is where it comes up in other places in math. From pi squared over 6 equaling the sum of the reciprocal squared numbers to eulers identity being e^ipi = -1, or how every function, using fourier transforms, can be represented as sine waves which are functions of a circle essentially, which ALSO have to do with pi.

[FunnyCraftSheep]

I love pi, memorizing the digits is actually so fun

[avi]

2:58 Actually, the speed of light is a ratio, because speed is a ratio between distance and time

[seanbekker]

Pick a number 1-10

Times it by 2
Divide by 2
Subtract 2
Add your age
Close your eyes

It's dark

James talking about math has to be the only type of education that I'd actually pay attention to.
