@adeelahmed not by profession, but by mindset yes.
And trying to get the world off #bigtech

@adeelahmed they are researching insanity on other platforms.

It's certainly a quieter place. Your science folk are lurking. You'll find them :0)

I work with scientists, does that count?

@adeelahmed do burnt out graduates with no further research exp help?

@adeelahmed I see someone's already recommended one of the two people I was going to suggest. So I'll just add the other, @dantheclamman - everyone needs a good clam now and then

Welcome! #OpenScience is another good hashtag to follow.

@adeelahmed I am on mastodon.green, but then I don’t chat much about my scientific field. Make sure to use hash tags to pick up relevant discussions, then follow the relevant people where ever they are in the fediverse.

@adeelahmed Follow @minouette for her bios and art featuring scientists throughout history.
Her work is fantastic.

Yo... Welcome!

@adeelahmed @minea64 Also write a bio and you can use the #fedi22 directory to find your people, and for them to find you.
@dilmandila @adeelahmed @minea64 and follow @FediTips

@http_error_418 @adeelahmed @dantheclamman is wonderful!

I have a No Soliciting sign on my door, which salespeople often ignore, and I get grumpy about it. But, a Sonic fiber internet sales person just came to the door claiming it is now available here and gave me a card for two months free, so I'm slightly less mad about it. Though I suspect it's a lie. They've been sending me flyers for years and every time I check it is not available.
I'm gonna check again, anyway, as I hate the cable company and they're charging me twice as much for slow service.

Prepararsi al pi day 2026
Quest'anno mettere in piedi il Carnevale della Matematica del 14 marzo, che sarà peraltro la 195.ma edizione, non è stato per nulla semplice. Il motivo è che il giorno del pi day sarò sul treno per rientrare da Firenze, dove a partire dall'11 marzo sarà in svolgimento Didacta, fiera della didattica italiana. Ho, quindi, costretto gli altri matematti a inviarmi con congruo anticipo i loro contributi (e nel frattempo ho anche cercato di impostare delle bozze, non sia mai che riesca a raccontarvi qualcosa da Didacta a fine serata!), per cui non ho preparato nessun contenuto video da lanciare in contemporanea o in anteprima al Carnevale. E allora ecco l'idea di proporre in un post apposito un paio di news di MaddMaths! dedicate proprio al pi day e che sarebbero state decisamente vecchie uscendo all'interno del Carnevale:
Tutte le info per segnalare gli eventi dedicati alla Giornata intenazionale della matematica: per questa edizione il tema è Matematica e speranzaInoltre c'è anche una pagina con alcune attività da organizzare per il pi day. All'interno troverete alcune schede in italiano per attività a tema matematico (e pi greco!).Anche se mancano ancora pochi giorni al #piday, c'è comunque ancora un po' di tempo per segnalare eventi o lasciarsi ispirare dalle attività proposte!

@oblomov @mcc @grumpygamer
After reading up on this a bit I can semi-confidently say that this branching process with d6s will continue infinitely. The highest chance of it terminating is of course in the first or second roll, but after that chances of terminating become infinitesimally small.
-
@oblomov @mcc @grumpygamer hi! It seems like you've stumbled upon the lovely mathematical genre of problem called 'branching processes' and 'extinction probabilities'. I don't know how to calculate this, but I can show you where to look.
Tbis Reddit post had a similar idea to you: https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/s/jH1LzTXROe
This is the wiki page on branching processes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branching_process?wprov=sfla1

@stefano also, for convenience, the overview page:
-
@mcc @grumpygamer that would be my intuition as well but I'm sure there's a mathematical way to prove it

@mullvadnet Great writeup, raising awareness on this is very important. Mullvad reporting thoroughly on this topic, I appreciate it.
