What are your thoughts on this guy?
>>7758185
cool guy. A little bit autistic but hey, who isn't
>>7758185
He's ugly and his videos are only appealing to underage fags.
>>7758191
Autistic or aspie? What's the difference?
bretty cool , Numberphile is entertaining
He's great, I really enjoy his videos on Numberphile the most.
>>7758185
We can be as elitist as we want, but most people are easily scared to try and learn about math--blame the educational system, shitty grade school teachers, etc.
What SingingBanana and Numberphile do is necessary and good for math as a whole. They simplify things because they have to, yes, but at least people can get excited over objectively beautiful and I interesting results and theories.

He's fun. I didn't go into memematics myself so I find his videos entertainingly informative.
He's really great, came to my school few years ago giving some talk

Barely anyone in this thread is even making fun of him.
>>7758194
Aspergers is only a form of autism, you have a couple.
I didn't like him at first because he intentionally acts out a stereotype, but I now understand it's a submissive gesture to signal the intent on servitude, while providing good opportunities for serious mathematicians to counter the assumptions, e.g. you can say "I don't care about numbers" and you've already unpigeonholed yourself.
>>7758763
Damn son you sound autistic.
As for Numberphile most of their content is entertaining and informative. Grime is a bit of a turn-off in terms of entertainment though; his voice grates and his mannerisms are jarring. Throw in the awful pen/paper scratching noise and a lot of their videos go from enjoyable to unpleasant.
>>7758782
Aspergers is no longer recognized.
quit the shit

>good and it better stay that way
what are you, his grandma?
>"Hi and welcome to numberphile"
>camera zooms in on the face of some sperglord already covered in sweat
>"Today we are going to talk about the number five"
>sperglord smiles the smile of a thousand suns
>drops of sweat pouring from his forehead
>he writes the number five on a paper
"The amazing thing about this number is that it is a part of you"
>camera zooms in on his hand that is soaked in sweat and shaking uncontrollably
>"As you can see my hand contains five fingers"
>a tear falls from his eye
>"I would not even know what do with my self if not for five"
>looks at the camera like he is seeing god
>tears of joy raining down his cheeks
>In a shaky voice he says:
>"without five I couldn't even count to six!"
>begins to cry

This guy is great
Can't help but to hate his fucking face
>>7758192
>his videos are only appealing to underage fags
Can you demonstrate this claim?
>>7758185
Some of his videos at least touch on interesting subjects. Can't help feeling a little put off at how greasy he is, though. Does he record all of his videos immediately after stepping out of a sauna?
i... may have a small crush on him
may.
Which is his best video?
He has his own channel, much more mathmatical and indepth than Numberphile.

This, his videos made me look further into mathematics and do my own research. However I am now autistic
>>7758185
I like him.
>>7758216
>TL/DR
Popsci matters
I like his Bri'ish accent.
>>7758839
What the fuck are you even trying to say?
All I understood out of that was something about cuckolding pigeons.
I asked him if he could do a video on Diophantine equations and he was really nice and polite, and even offered to personally help me with any problems i had
>mfw a maths PhD offering to help an undergrad physcist with some trivial puzzles
10/10 guy, i <3 him to bits
>>7761802
he really is the man, very nice person

B&
huge fag
I met him IRL and started twerking at him
He didn't seem to understand my sexual advance
Guys probably a poofter
>>7763063
>tfw no Numberphile bf to rub dicks and share mathmatical oddities with
it hurts ;~;
>>7763063
I'm not gay or anything but I'd give anything to cuddle with him as he explains topology to me
>tfw you'll never spoon with a math genius
>>7760650
yeah u watch them
>>7758185
Chimp lips
Hes great.
Not as great as the kleinbottle guy though.
Never was a big fan of mathematics until i read simon singh's fermat's last theorem. then i started to follow numberphile. i like the guy

His name is Cliff Stoll for anyone interested, he's got some other videos on YouTube.
I think he's cute
