    I hereby propose we make a workforce to rename all the stuff named after Euler.

    It’s just horrible. What’s the difference between Euler’s relation and Euler’s ratio? What about Euler’s rule and Euler’s method? Do all of those only name a single thing? Who knows? Why does Google just replace half of them by their preferred Euler named stuff? Who knows?

    I always try to park further back because of this. Then I still underestimate it and can’t find where I parked.

    With motorcycles, it’s almost mandatory to park further back. People will try to pull in, hit the bike, knock it over, and then drive off like nothing happened. If confronted, it’s your fault for riding a bike.

      One perk of riding a small scooter is that i park right on the sidewalk area if i can (where people put their bikes). No issues yet

    God, do I understand this. I think back to the days when I didn’t know math and math history(?) and I just shake my head to imagine what it would be like to not get all the different math layers of this joke. Euler! A Miata. LOL! Bruh. Nailed it.
