What is the formula for the volume of a thick crust pizza?

In summary: The mathematician, who had been observing the entire exchange. "You two are wasting your time. The bear is three meters to the right of where you are, no matter who takes the shot."

Q: Why do mathematicians always make problems bigger?

A: Because of Cantor.

(Warning: Educated non-mathematicians may find this joke slightly funnier).

Q: Why didn't Isaac Newton do group theory?
A: Because he wasn't Abel.

(Nerd)

BTW, if you already know some of the basics of group theory and want to get into more advanced material as well as applications, I recommend David Joyner's Adventures in Group Theory, published in 2002. It can't fail, because it has the above joke in it.

A reporter approaches a Saudi, a Hindu, a North Korean,
and a New Yorker.

He says, "Pardon me, what is your opinion on the beef shortage?"

The Saudi says, "What is a shortage?"

The Hindu says, "What is beef?"

The North Korean says, "What is an opinion?"

The New Yorker says, "What is pardon me?"

I'd like to let everyone note at this point that even though the article maybe just meant for a joke, the formulas given aren't incorrect. For example, (a serious version) A166079

Regarding the comics "A friend in need is a friend indeed" in https://driven2services.com/staging/mh/index.php?posts/37357/: Russian people would also bend the thumb to indicate number four. But Russians fold fingers rather than extend them while counting (wiki). Also, I don't know if it's just me, but I would hold the hand with the palm facing me, not the board. I'll ask my friends how they would do it.

When manually enumerating, I place my palm facing me, and extend fingers, beginning with the index, then middle, ring, pinky and finally thumb. I notice some here who begin with the thumb though. I think to myself that they are strange, but do not chastise them for being "wrong." :D

Meh!? :eek:

The toes are lower down, so you starts with them, non? Toes for units, fingers for tens, and something else for hundreds...

When I am in the mood to try and impress my friends/family, I treat each finger as a binary digit where extended is 1, and count from 0 to 1023 on ten fingers. There is always much ooing and ahhing and raucous applause! (Bow)

For some reason, when I get to 4, 128 and especially 132, there is snickering. I don't understand it...:(
