Almost every real number is normal, but we still can’t prove it for π, e, or √2. I wrote about why that isn’t a contradiction and what "normal" actually means. twopi.dev/2026/the-num...

Almost all real numbers are normal, meaning every digit and every finite digit string appears with exactly the frequency you'd expect. Yet we can't prove normality for almost any specific number we ca...

I wonder how many inventions/discoveries are misattributed because of intelligence/military reasons.

What is π, really? — TwoPi
π is not just a circle constant. It appears in infinite sums, bell curves, and counting problems that have nothing to do with circles.

Rust 1.89.0 will stabilize let-chains (yay 🎉). In the same release, clippy will flag `if` statements that can be collapsed further using a let-chain. Outcome: your CI will fail when 1.89.0 is released, and you can't fix it ahead of time because the feature clippy wants you to use isn't stable yet 🙃
