Hi John,Sometimes you run into something that's interesting but you realize that most of your friends either don't care or don't get it. Well, this YouTube video was one of those interesting things. You're the only person I could think of who would find it interesting. I have to start looking for some more smart friends or at least curious friends. lol

I was dumb enough to watch the full video here:
This involves math slightly above my level and lacks relevance to my life.
Sometimes math goes so far down the rabbit hole that it feels like naval gazing.
I often thought that I should have been a math major. It would have been more interesting to me than my biology major and fits in well with computer programming.
