Who's watching the Bad Bunny concert tonight? We heard that there's some other event going on with Sports Balls.
We don't know.
Mathematics is our Favorite Sport.

New co-host alert! Welcome to the team, @profnoahgian.bsky.social!
We share the same curiosity and care for asking good questions. Breaking Math has always been about more than equations. It’s about understanding the world better, together.
This feels like a natural next chapter.
Announcement: @breakingmath.bsky.social is growing, and I’m elated welcome @profnoahgian.bsky.social the new co-host of the show!
He's a mathematician, professor, and author who has a rare gift for making big, complicated ideas — algorithms, technology, AI — feel understandable and deeply human.
Alert: We have a new co-host!!! Welcome to the team @profnoahgian.bsky.social! We are so happy to have you on the team!

Uh oh! She's cooking! What's happening? What are we building?
Can someone tell us what's going on?
Wait... we already know. 😉
I started rebuilding @breakingmath.bsky.social this past week with someone new. I didn't realize how quickly I could make a positive impact.
I hope you are all ready for this. :)
Yes, I've been quiet on here. There have been a lot of changes on @breakingmath.bsky.social If you follow my personal and the show Instagrams, you might find a soft-launch of what's to come. 😉
No show this week, but there will be a new episode soon with all the details!

A great conversation with @add-hawk.bsky.social on @breakingmath.bsky.social metrics and meaning: how scoring systems can clarify value or quietly replace it. The danger isn’t the games themselves, but when the score starts telling us what matters @penguinpress.bsky.social
