Christmas Message
I quote from Pope Francis’ Christmas Message to the Roman Curia and emphasize sacrificial charity as the basis for a new evangelism.
The Facebook Integral
Facebook has developed a neural network that can solve some integrals that Mathematica can not. In the first video, I explain how to use free software products (Axiom and Sage) to solve this integral. In the second video, I go into more detail about Robert Risch’s theorem and how it applies to the Facebook integral.
Impeachment!
The battery went dead on the recorder, so only the first few minutes of the speech were saved.
