  • Resumen

  • Hosted by Gabriel Hesch and Autumn Phaneuf, who have advanced degrees in electrical engineering and industrial engineering/operations research respectively, come together to discuss mathematics as a pure field al in its own as well as how it describes the language of science, engineering, and even creativity.

    Breaking Math brings you the absolute best in interdisciplinary science discussions - bringing together experts in varying fields including artificial intelligence, neuroscience, evolutionary biology, physics, chemistry and materials-science, and more - to discuss where humanity is headed.

    Black Holes: The Abyss Part 3
    Aug 13 2024

    It's the last week of our summer break and we have 2 episodes this week for you as a little treat. So check out our show on Friday too for a little bit more fun. We can't wait for our fall lineup because it's packed with surprises. If you have not listened to the last two episodes, then we'd highly recommend going back and listening to those. We're choosing to present this information this way because otherwise we'd waste most of your time re-explaining concepts we've already covered.

    Black holes are so bizarre when we measured against the yardstick of the mundanity of our day to day lives that they inspire fear, awe, and controversy. In this last episode of the Abyss series, we will look at some more cutting-edge problems and paradoxes surrounding black holes. So how are black holes and entanglement related? What is the holographic principle? And what is the future of black holes?

  • Black Holes: The Abyss Part 2

    Black Holes: The Abyss Part 2
    Aug 6 2024

    Happy Summer! We have another week of our summer break after this episode from 2018. We will be back shortly with more content and surprises!

    Black holes are objects that seem exotic to us because they have properties that boggle our comparatively mild-mannered minds. These are objects that light cannot escape from, yet glow with the energy they have captured until they evaporate out all of their mass. They thus have temperature, but Einstein's general theory of relativity predicts a paradoxically smooth form. And perhaps most mind-boggling of all, it seems at first glance that they have the ability to erase information. So what is black hole thermodynamics? How does it interact with the fabric of space? And what are virtual particles?

Epsiode 1 - Too much non-math and pomposity.

I started with the first one mostly on elitism and Pythagoras. Any commentary on Pythagoras that doesn't start with "we don't know much about him with certainty" because he never wrote anything, and it all comes from biased or mythologized secondhand accounts is suspect. There is simply too much wrong with this episode. Why is it so difficult to find a good math Podcast in which people stay in their lane of what they know, or at least have guests that do? Sounds like a bunch of pompous hipsters. Sad..
They need to stop trying too hard to sloppily fit everything to their narrative about elitism. There was obviously a lot of politics involved when opponents labeled Pope Sylvester II a sorcerer. But the way these hipsters present it, with zero social or cultural nuance regarding the times, it was all because he dared to use foreign Arabic numerals. They are straining to have everything fit their per-determined narrative about elitism. They give a long quote from a Galilean book presented as some kind of lame "proof” of Aristotelian ignorance, but they do not bother to mention that it is a fictional dialogue. The language and translations are probably deceiving but again, they are determined to keep themselves and the listener stuck within their modern lens.

Still wondering where the math is and how this makes math more accessible.

They then provide a questionable definition about cults stating they all have the characteristic of starving and restricting adherents into submission, even ridiculously positing out of thin air that that makes sense evolutionary. Sure, why not throw in some armchair evolutionary biology too. But actually, competition makes just as much sense as cooperation evolutionary, probably even more so. The audacity to think they can apply a questionable modern definition to something so long ago that we have little evidence of is absurd. Everything was called a "cult" in those ancient Greek days, partly because they didn't have a word for religion. These people are ignorantly stuck in their modern hipster lens of what "cult" means combined with the story of the guy who was supposedly murdered for revealing the irrationals (probably a baloney account for all that we know) and then essentially concluding that the Pythagoreans must be an elitist cult no different than David Koresh or something. I am not sure how these hipsters got degrees.
