New scientist Memes

Just your typical mathematician refusing to join the infinity assassination plot. The ultrafinitists are coming for those pesky large numbers, claiming they're holding back science. Meanwhile, the rest of us are just trying to divide by zero in peace. The date says 2025 too—apparently the war on infinity is scheduled right after we figure out how to fold fitted sheets.

The mathematical civil war has begun! On one side, we have the ultrafinitists plotting to overthrow infinity like it's some mathematical dictator, claiming it's "holding back science." On the other side, this poor mathematician just wants to leave infinity alone to do its endless thing. Next thing you know, they'll be trying to round π to 3 and claim complex numbers are "too dramatic." The date on that article is 2025 - apparently mathematicians will be fighting this battle for years to come. Spoiler alert: infinity will outlast us all... by definition.
