Can somebody post that greentext about the professor being unable to prove some statement, and then finds a text that he wrote where the proof was left as an excersize for the reader?

The first time I encountered a "the proof is left an exercise to the reader" problem I thought it was some kind of joke. Now that I've seen more and more of them, I realize that those authors must be /sci/ shitposters and want their readers to play "spot the brainlet" against themselves.

Or maybe it's because people always want practice problems in their textbooks and Prof's can't be assed to make them, so they find a way to simultaneously make a practice problem and reduce their workload at the same time.
