The longer I spend online, the more true this feels. A big consequence of social atomization is that increasing numbers of people lack a sense of how their thinking stacks up against others. They are either very impressed with themselves OR ridiculously underestimate themselves.

It's so hard to put a decade into words, but we've tried. As TechHub goes into administration, we remember the last ten years.

If you have any questions about whether you should be staying home or going out, stay home. Go to work, and go straight back home. If you donโt need food or other essential items, stay home.
Your actions affect your neighbors, and theirs affect you.
Thatโs what this is all about.

The problem with tweeting maths jokes is that anything about calculus is considered derivative, trigonometry jokes are too graphic (๐ฑ), algebra jokes are formulaic, and arithmetic jokes are just basic. We try the occasional statistics joke, but it's an outlier
