They genuinely stopped teaching it in American schools. The first generation to grow up without learning cursive is now in grad school.

Anything that's wrong with R, set-theoretically, is also wrong with P(N).

Frankly, most of the weirder stuff about the reals are actually problems with P(R), which is equinumerous with P(P(N)). In fact, I'm beginning to think the issue is actually with the powerset axiom

I don't find it that difficult?

(The "triangular faces" thing is so that you don't have to worry about keeping the vertices of a quadrilateral face coplanar.)

I believe the smallest polyhedron for which this is possible is a cuboctahedron with each square face cut into two triangles.

By the way, there's a discrete version of this: there exists a convex polyhedron with triangular faces such that, by moving the vertices around space continuously, you can turn it inside out without letting any of the dihedral angles go to zero.

I think it's mainly confusing because we can't do it in real life. I truly believe that if someone invented a stretchy material that could pass through itself, people would be able to evert the sphere after a few minutes of trying, doing it hands-on

According to the website it's not published until tomorrow, so I don't know how I have it already. I hit the button labeled "preorder" and they sent it to me

It came! #TheRisingSea #RaviVakil #algebraicgeometry

Maybe I would retitle it to "A naive proof, and why it does not work" or "A naive proof and the reason it does not work"

The details of this argument (for instance, that the integral is always a polynomial in pi with integer coefficients of degree at most n, and that it goes to 0 super-exponentially) are left to the reader

IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
The table shows the value of
Integral_{x=0..pi} [sin(x) x^n (Pi-x)^n / n!] dx
for various values of n. For n=7, the exact value is
-112Pi^6 + 50400Pi^4 - 3991680Pi^2 + 34594560
and the approximate value is
0.102692917728.
For n=14, the approximate value is
0.000002476917.

Proof that pi is irrational:

Consider the following table.
If pi=A/B, the values are an integer multiple of 1/B^n, but they tend to zero super-exponentially.

(Actually this shows that pi^2 is irrational)

In fact the set of _all_ functions N->R has cardinality c by the same argument

That's still c, isn't it? It seems to me like you're describing cardinality
c^(aleph0) = (2^aleph0)^aleph0
= 2^(aleph0xaleph0)
= 2^(aleph0) = c
