My new #math series in the New York Times, "Math, Revealed," is aimed at everyone, whether you love math or not. Have a look! You can read it here for free without a subscription. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

NYT sends a magnificent cultural signal with this new math series by the amazing Steven Strogatz. In a world where so little seems real - including, at times, NYT reporting - math is an anchor, an anchor of sanity. Huzzah!

Sad to hear about Bill Atkinson's passing. When I was a kid and we got our first original 128k Mac, I absorbed the programming documentation and marveled at the amazing breadth of functionality crammed into the QuickDraw library that he wrote. nytimes.com/2025/06/07/tec…

This is SO well done. LOVE Steven Strogatz who I first met via Santa Fe Institute Santa Fe Institute on his work on SYNC across nature and Cornell and math. I wish his new NYT series existed when I was younger. We all could be more everyday MATH literate nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Super cool new series via Steven Strogatz: Each installment of “Math, Revealed” starts with an object, uncovers the math behind it, and follows it to places you wouldn’t expect. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Taxicab Geometry is an interesting and accessible idea that isn’t included in most high schools. Check out this article to learn more!

Super, super cool. Just read through this with my homeschooled 10 year old who is really into math. (We took it slow and defined a lot of words). He was *literally* [hand to God; not making this up] jumping up and down with excitement that this is going to be a series.

Steven Strogatz is not only one of the best math teachers, but one of the best *teachers,* I have ever encountered. His books, talks, and articles are wonderful. So happy to see his new series, "Math, Revealed" nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Steven Strogatz is incredible. When I was younger, I avoided math and physics. However, as I've grown older, I've gained wisdom and realized that my reluctance to embrace these subjects limited my quest for understanding and truth about the universe. I have now fully immersed

Jasmine Cruz Thanks. Your question is terrific -- I'll let you and other people here ponder it. Also, do you think the formula A = pi r^2 still works, for the new taxicab value of pi?

This week’s guest on “The Joy of Why” is my friend L. Mahadevan. The Maha that I knew a long time ago was thinking about paper folds. These days, he’s moved on to brain folds. Tune in to our conversation, from PRX and @quantamagazine: quantamagazine.org/does-form-real…
