Did Kellogg's do the math?

Matt Parker would be proud

You need to say the conjecture in an Aussie accent, and then make a joke about sandwiches or something.

100000000000000000000000000000010 is a Parker Sandwich Number, by the way.

#PreshTalwalkar is long overdue to revisit xyr sign-off screen on every #MindYourDecisions video.

Not making the finalist list for an award in 2017 falls somewhat flat as an achievement, made even worse by the fact that xe appears directly beneath Elon Musk.

It is fast approaching a decade. Surely something more noteworthy has happened since, what with Lockdown and all? Susanne Scherer has been to talk to the EU Parliament in that time and @standupmaths has calculated pi. Surely M. Talwalkar has not rested on those 2017 laurels?

The nominees for the Best STEM in Social Media Shorty Award

If I were @standupmaths , there would be some Terrible Python Code parsing the output of dnsqr and doing line fitting to the TTL values; and an entire video on how to estimate from such data how many real machines under the covers serve up some seemingly single service on the Internet, and a second channel one on how people did that from the Netcraft uptime graphs that it used to present a couple of decades ago.

And then a clever viewer switching from parsing text from a pipe to some proper Python DNS client library and achieving a 6283% speedup.

I basically understand none of it but I still love Matt "Standup Maths" Parker's videos đŸ„°
