TODAY'S THE DAY! It's one of the coolest dates of our lifetime.
Whether you go by month/day/year or day/month/year, if we write the date as one number, we will get a square number! Both sides can agree that today's date is a square date.

Have a graph idea that's outside of the box? Add variables to the definitions of your graph bounds to track a point along a curve, adjust the window using actions, keep a label in the same relative position on your screen, and more. The possibilities are boundless.

Thanks to @sertalpbilal.com and all the others involved in FPL analytics who have made this game more measurable and more interesting
Last season I finished 29th in the world in FPL and this season I was outside of the top 3 million. I was no worse a player this year than last, it's just a very high variance game! Just a reminder that there are many outcomes out of our control, just focus on what you can control.
With a high degree of confidence, we can confirm new inference tests are now live! 🎉

Do you have a spare 3-4 minutes to be part of a daft online thing? We're collecting YouTube videos of people saying chunks of digits of the recently discovered Mersenne prime - and we'll keep going until we've got them all (or they find another one). Find out more at saytheprime.com
Can you figure out the fewest number of marks needed on this ruler?
(I think this would be a great math task!)
Not dissimilar to this classic...
