Calculating pi from coin flips (without randomness)

"Any sufficiently well explained #mathematics is indistinguishable from being obvious" -- #MattParker, damn is it too late to go back and change the quote in my thesis?? (u r y)

I got my #MoonPi patch!
A lunar rover will calculate Pi using the moon's environment as a source of randomness. This involves using the rover's sensors to generate random numbers, then employing a Monte Carlo method. Support the mission and become a Mathstronaut! #MattParker

#BigClive has taken a bit of a strange turn. The calculator is still pink, and the improvisation when a spudger is not to hand is still there.

But someone has turned on YouTube's new AI-powered convert-the-dialogue-to-an-Aussie-accent feature.

#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?

Oggi, a #LineaRadioSavona con GianFunk e Mariagrazia abbiamo investigato sulla missione #LOOP ("Lunar Observations Of Pi"), l'iniziativa di #MattParker che porterà la divulgazione della matematica al polo Sud lunare, e sul sito pi.space! 😉
Grazie a chi ha ascoltato, buon sabato!🙏👋🚀
(E in bocca al lupo a chi sta facendo la maturità! 😉)

I can see the headline now.
