https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y12 Tt3bOmKA I fucking hate numberphile

no one ask why, just ignore the thread.

>>8080891
why?

Computerphile has gone to shit lately too, case in point:

>internet censorship is... censorship of the internet

I made a comment about how shallow the video was... and they censored it.

>>8080891
Did you watch the video?

>>8080498
>pnik

>>8080498
I hate it too.
the greatest harm it has done is the fucking 1+2+3+... = -1/12 crap.

>>8081630
They basically ruined the internet for maths discussion outside of maths circles with that one

burger's gonna have a fit

Why you hate it?

>>8082062
Because it spawns countless ignorant retards who think they know anything when in actuality they don't. These fucking cocksuckers make money out of people's laziness and need in distractions, providing illusion of knowledge and meaningless shallow bits of simplified and inaccurate trivia.

>>8082790
ITT: elitist anons are angry because a YouTube channel is undermining the knowledge gap that makes them feel superior.

>>8083207
The video just makes me hate geeks and autists even more.

>>8083218
dude you're trying too hard not to be racist

>>8083233
I am racist, though. You probably are too just too chicken to admit it.

>>8083245
the video is made for little kids dude.

>>8083207
I wish it did that, but it only facilitates the gap between retards' perceived knowledge and their actual knowledge.

>>8083207
this

>>8083359
Why not a collection of objects, then. It's simpler and more accurate.

>>8083245
He does first say "what we're gonna talk about today is sets of positive numbers".
But I admit he was confusing with everything said afterwards. Why not talk about union, intersection, difference, etc, in a video about sets? And this addition over sets seems awfully specific, I hadn't seen it anywhere before this.

>>8081648

How?

All he needed to say is a collection of objects and he would've gotten the point across. He might fuck with these kid's expectations of basic mathematics saying dumb shit like that.

>>8084745
how would that get the point across? what kid knows that meaning of object? objects are physical things that you can hold in your hand. the way you're using it is different.

>>8080498
WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU USE WRAPPING PAPER + A PERMANENT MARKER. THAT SOUND IS ENDING ME.
