We spotted a bit of Game Theory and some basic Combinatorics. Math Facebook: what else did this man use to solve British parking lots? https://nyti.ms/3xAXsNH

Silver and gold! #TeamCanada 2021 brought home our first-ever gold medal for female Olympians in an international math Olympiad AND added a silver for good measure. Congratulations to Kaylee Ji, Jennifer Wang, Allison Tsypin & Yfan (Emma) Tang! You make us proud.... https://bit.ly/3xuglBX

We like our beer with a respectable amount of foam and a big plate of #math puns on the side. Cheers! https://lawandcrime.com//mostly-foam-judge-taps-into-keg-/

"During [Johnson's] time at the space agency, her calculations of orbital mechanicsincluding trajectories, launch windows, and emergency return and rendezvous pathswere vital to the success of the first crewed space flights." #legend #NASA #mathematics https://robbreport.com//nasa-mathematician-katherine-john/

On this day in 1930, the brilliant logician, Kurt Gödel, introduced the world to what would become one of math's great existential crises by positing that there are true but unprovable statements in #arithmetic. His Incompleteness Theorem continues to challenge the limits of what we think we know to this day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrKLy4VN-7k
