About
Good Math, Bad Math is a blog which exists for two reasons:
- For me to ramble about the beauty of mathematics, and try to share my enthusiasm for the subject.
- To track down the bozos who use bad math to lie, distort reality, and in general support bad arguments; demonstrate their errors and their dishonesty; and generally mock them.
The blog will also intermittently include me rambling about other obsessions: programming, music, and whatever else interests me.
The beautiful "Good Math/Bad Math" banner was designed by Josh Gemmell.
