What a boring video. Is it supposed to make people lose their interest in math? Who gives a fuck about pluggin numbers in a function and looking at prime divisors? Fucking useless. No applications. Math can be so beautiful and interesting, but this pure autism shit is just dull and pointless.

Number theory and sequences are the devil's work. I feel uncomfortable hearing about sequences like this because it feels like there's something too big going on; patterns that are too fundamental to properly grasp.

>> No.6459248

I know what prime numbers are and I know how to evaluate functions at integer points but what the fuck is this good for? Where would we ever need to generate an iterated sequence and find its prime numbers? In my opinion she presents it very poorly, for she fails to motivate what she's doing.

Where would we ever need to use this? In my opinion it's very poorly needed, for it fails to motivate me in what I'm doing; laying pipe.

Math should be practical.

Philosophy should have nothing to do with science.

I don't think a motivation is necessary for something like numberphile, which is mathematics purely for the sake of mathematics. I think it's really interesting. I did an independent research project on fractals while I was in high school and was very interested by the Mandelbrot set. It was fascinating to see that connection in Dr. Krieger's video.

Now I only wish I could be as pretty as she is!

>> No.6462323

See this just reinforces that a woman's only value is in her looks. Nobody cares about the content of the video. This is the battle women face everyday to be taken seriously. You don't click a Richard Dawkins video and see the comments judging whether the video sucks or not based on his sex appeal.

>> No.6462434

>>6462323
No this just says that men are distracted by _beautiful_ women. Numberphile has had women on before and the reactions weren't anything like this. The Numberphile audience isn't exactly used to seeing hot girls talk about math, so that factors into it too.
