Pythagore à la plage

Jean-Paul Delahaye

Cover of Pythagore à la plage

Qui était Pythagore et quelle était sa vision du monde? Quels secrets cache le nombre d'or? A quoi servent les nombres premiers? Au VIe siècle avant notre ère, Pythagore a fondé à Crotone une école basée sur l'idée selon laquelle tout est nombres. Qu'ils soient irrationnels, transcendants ou premiers, les nombres continuent à être explorés dans les mathématiques modernes. Installez-vous bien confortablement dans votre transat et laissez-vous guider par Jean-Paul Delahaye à la découverte des nombres et de leurs mystères. Au moment de quitter votre transat, les nombres n'auront plus de secrets pour vous !

  • My Ango: An anti-movational post

    About three months ago I posted this photo, which was a plan for the Fall 2025 Ango[1][2].

    Whenever people post things like this on the internet, it's very easy to imagine that they did exactly that—that it all went perfectly—and when you try to do the same and don't manage to stick to it as much as you'd have liked, to think that there's something...

  • Marry me!!! is the last thing you expect at 2am

    I just got home and I need to write about an experience I just had that I'm still trying to understand.

    I had left a friend's house after a nice little dinner and had decided to take one of the bikeshares home. I was about five minutes into my ride when here "Hey, cheri !... Tu es beau ! Je t'aime !" (Hey, babe! You're handsome! I love you!")

    I was startled. My mind...

  • Spiders in the web: Hyperion's Farcasters and Technofeudalism

    SPOILERS FOR THE HYPERION SERIES

    I recently finished the Hyperion Cantos. For those who have never heard of it, you can check out this YouTube video, which will give a quick introduction to the first book and the various actors in the book's world. The video has no spoilers, unlike this blog post, and I highly recommend the book to anyone interested in Science...

  • Slump (A poem)

    Wind rushing by my ears
    Branches slap my face
    Speed increasing
    As gravity drags me down
    Into its bosom
    Woosh, whack, whiz
    As I wake up
    To a once hidden nightmare.

    The wind whirrs its whispers and insinuations in my ear
    Hissing doubt, discord, and distrust
    Memories that refuse to be ignored and pushed aside,
    They drone in their...

  • A Manifesto? - Part 1: New Ways of Being

    I have an idea rattling around in my head. An embryo of an idea. A little intellectual itch nagging at me. A perpetual refrain when my mind idles and looks for the nearest thing to alight on. A notion I've been vaguely referring to as “new ways of being.”

    The world is changing, and we are changing with it. Maybe now more than ever. As the contradictions of our current socioeconomic...
