Algorithmic information theory | Mathematical paradoxes
The Berry paradox is a self-referential paradox arising from an expression like "The smallest positive integer not definable in under sixty letters" (a phrase with fifty-seven letters). Bertrand Russell, the first to discuss the paradox in print, attributed it to G. G. Berry (1867–1928), a junior librarian at Oxford's Bodleian Library. Russell called Berry "the only person in Oxford who understood mathematical logic". The paradox was called "Richard's paradox" by Jean-Yves Girard. (Wikipedia).
Here’s a neat phenomenon that takes place in the context of a circle & a line drawn tangent to it. How can we prove one segment to be the geometric mean of the other two? 🤔 Source: Antonio Gutierrez. geogebra.org/m/DERWQcdF #GeoGebra

The corner cube problem is interesting because it initially looks difficult. When the problem was first posed to me, for example, it didn't know how to solve it. Still, my intuition bells were ringing, telling me there was a nice solution. In this video, I cover two of these solutions, in

Twins Paradox: The Complete Explanation
The twins paradox is easily the most famous paradoxes of all time. Using spacetime diagrams and the rules of relativity, we can show the paradox only happens because people are being lazy with special relativity. http://brilliant.org/ScienceAsylum ________________________________ VIDEO ANN

Relativity: how people get time dilation wrong
Einstein’s special theory of relativity is notorious for being easy to misuse, with the result that sometimes result in claims of paradoxes. When one digs more carefully into the theory, you find that no such paradoxes actually exist. In this video, Fermilab’s Dr. Don Lincoln describes a
