i keep expecting to run out of weird stuff to find, but nope
In complex analysis, a branch of mathematics, an amoeba is a set associated with a polynomial in one or more complex variables. Amoebas have applications in algebraic geometry, especially tropical geometry.

Disappointed there’s no pictures.
I think it’s funny that this is “traditional” but involves a tool that’s only been around for about 150 years.
Really a lot of so-called “traditional” foods around the world are only a century or two old.

italian gastronationalism has to be the gold standard of ‘traditional cuisine that was mostly invented after world war 2’

Maybe I’m little old, after I known one of my favorite traditional food shaped by polish Jewish refugees and most of them gone by later war. I become very cherish this traditional food flavor I had right now. It is very young in human history but it has become a swan song. I guess this is the reason why these food were so young.

Thai cooking places emphasis on lightly prepared dishes with aromatics and spicy heat. The Australian chef David Thompson, an expert on Thai food, observes that unlike many other cuisines,...

new favourite. i think it looks neater despite being more complicated
The Soddy line of a triangle is the line that goes through the centers of the two Soddy circles of that triangle.
The Soddy line intersects the Euler line in the de Longchamps point and the Gergonne line in the Fletcher point. It is also perpendicular to the Gergonne line and together all three lines form the Euler-Gergonne-Soddy triangle. The Gergonne point and the incenter of the triangle are located on the Soddy line as well.
The line is named after Nobel laureate Frederick Soddy, who publi...
this has made me laugh multiple times, i think cause of the names gradually getting more exotic and quirky and then just “salmon”
The 60 points formed in this way are now known as the Kirkman points . The Pascal lines also pass, three at a time, through 20 Steiner points . There are 20 Cayley lines which consist of a Steiner point and three Kirkman points. The Steiner points also lie, four at a time, on 15 Plücker lines . Furthermore, the 20 Cayley lines pass four at a time through 15 points known as the Salmon points .
In projective geometry, Pascal's theorem (also known as the hexagrammum mysticum theorem, Latin for mystical hexagram) states that if six arbitrary points are chosen on a conic (which may be an ellipse, parabola or hyperbola in an appropriate affine plane) and joined by line segments in any order to form a hexagon, then the three pairs of opposite sides of the hexagon (extended if necessary) meet at three points which lie on a straight line, called the Pascal line of the hexagon. It is named afte...

Ennigaldi-Nanna (Babylonian cuneiform: En-nígaldi-Nanna), also known as Bel-Shalti-Nanna[a] and commonly called just Ennigaldi, was a princess of the Neo-Babylonian Empire and high priestess (entu) of Ur. As the first entu in six centuries, serving as the "human wife" of the moon-god Sin, Ennigaldi held large religious and political power. She is most famous today for founding a museum in Ur c. 530 BC. Ennigaldi's museum showcased, cataloged, and labelled artifacts from the preceding 1, Ennigald...
