Let's do something different today, /sci/. ITT we post funny or interesting news stories about scientists or mathematicians. I'll start:

I was doing some research and came across this by pure coincidence. Thought it was pretty funny.

It was probably some scary shit like
1+2+3+4+.... '=' -1/12
He probably deserved it

the thing about non-brainlets is when they day dream they think about numbers.

One weekend these physics students at Cal Tech were taking a break from studying and go out cruising around Pasadena. They see this hippie van up ahead, with an amateur custom paint job. You know, like flowers or something. Except instead of any of the usual stuff, it's Feynman Diagrams. So at a red light they pull next to him and yell, "hey, dude, why you go Feynman diagrams on your van?!" And then the driver leans out and yells back, "because I'm Richard Feynman!"

What, did he think that he owed the mathematician 1/12 dollars?

Please stop reading this click bait. The headline is disconnected from the actual events unveiled in the last few paragraphs.

One day Shizuo Kakutani was teaching a class at Yale. He wrote down a lemma on the blackboard and announced that the proof was obvious. One student timidly raised his hand and said that it wasn’t obvious to him. Could Kakutani explain?

After several moments’ thought, Kakutani realized that he could not himself prove the lemma. He apologized, and said that he would report back at their next class meeting.

After class, Kakutani, went straight to his office. He labored for quite a time and found that he could not prove the pesky lemma. He skipped lunch and went to the library to track down the lemma. After much work, he finally found the original paper. The lemma was stated clearly and succinctly. For the proof, the author had written “Exercise for the reader”.

The author of this 1941 paper was Kakutani.

PhD in theoretical physics, an immigrant from Ukraine became the most celebrated politician in modern history, delivering free quality healthcare, allowing gun carry, prohibiting the government agencies from spying on their citizens and introducing strict regulations on wall street, big oil, big pharma and jails as well as basically outlawing corporal lobbyism in America. He was the first POTUS to serve three terms and this PhD will have been me.
You now have the opportunity to tell me your concerns and desires.

A liberal Muslim homosexual ACLU lawyer professor and abortion doctor was teaching a class on Karl Marx, known atheist
“Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship Marx and accept that he was the most highly-evolved being the world has ever known, even greater than Jesus Christ!”
At this moment, a brave, patriotic, pro-life Navy SEAL champion who had served 1500 tours of duty and understood the necessity of war and fully supported all military decision made by the United States stood up and held up a rock.
“How old is this rock?”
The arrogant professor smirked quite Jewishly and smugly replied “4.6 billion years, you stupid Christian”
“Wrong. It’s been 5,000 years since God created it. If it was 4.6 billion years old and evolution, as you say, is real… then it should be an animal now”
The professor was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and copy of Origin of the Species. He stormed out of the room crying those liberal crocodile tears.
The students applauded and all registered Republican that day and accepted Jesus as their lord and savior. An eagle named “Small Government” flew into the room and perched atop the American Flag and shed a tear on the chalk. The pledge of allegiance was read several times, and God himself showed up and enacted a flat tax rate across the country.
The professor lost his tenure and was fired the next day. He died of the gay plague AIDS and was tossed into the lake of fire for all eternity.
Semper Fi
