On behalf of math teachers everywhere, I’d like to apologize to parents trying to help their children with math during distance learning. (From @nathanwpyle)

Today, the calendar makes a right triangle, for the last time this century. This Saturday is October 24, 2026. Write it as 10/24/26 or 24/10/26, and the same beautiful relationship appears: 10² + 24² = 26² 100 + 576 = 676 But here’s what makes today special. There are infinitely many Pythagorean triples. Only a handful fit our calendar. Using the rule month² + day² = (last two digits of the year)², the month cannot exceed 12, and the day cannot exceed 31. Those small limits leave exactly 12 qualifying dates in this century. Today is the last. The next will be March 4, 2105: 3² + 4² = 5² That is a wait of more than 78 years. An infinite family of triangles. Just twelve appearances on a century’s calendar. Happy Pythagorean Triple Day.

Your phone isn’t just a phone. It’s your to-do list. Your unread emails. Your boss. Your calendar. It’s the text you forgot to respond to, the news update you didn’t ask for, the social post you might be missing. It’s everything you could be doing. That’s a lot of weight for one device. And your brain feels it, every second it’s nearby.
