Afterthought: I'm thinking about the poor guy who searched Matrix Problems and found this.
It'd probably be as amusing as that guy who complained about my Definition: Polygon comic years ago.
Or his anonymous friend who backed him up a month later.
Yeah, like I wouldn't see through that. Hell-ooo! Teacher.
Come back often for more funny math and geeky comics.
And that almost fell apart on Day 1. It's late in the evening, and I'm exhausted. So I've punted and given you an introduction post announcing my intent without actually getting started. I've fulfilled the obligation with more noise and less content.
Noise and content, as we know, are inversely proportional in blog posts, as well as message boards and other forums. The more of one, the less of the other. Bob McAllister, host of the old -- old -- kid show Wonderama, used to sing "The more you Fingel, the less you Heimer, The less you Heimer, the more you Fingel" when he introduced his character, Professor Fingelheimer. That was probably my first real exposure to the concept of inverse proportion even though it didn't mean a fingel-thing!
With noise and content, you really can't have one without the other. Well, you can, theoretically, but 100% content is boring and bland while 100% noise would be ... should I name names? You know which blogs those are: lists of 20 random things required 72 clicks to get through.
So this is mostly noise and nostalgia, and tomorrow will be some wonderfully thought out piece about inequalities that might even merit a second draft.
Unless a comic comes to me in the next hour or so that just can't wait. Or my work schedule demands a little bit more of me.
Which would leave you with a little bit less of me.
