The Pythagoreans have finally won out now that math is vibes that contain the power to destroy the world
Mathematicians out here saying it is not the proof that matters, but the human understanding of the proof.
We are all humanists now.

Everyone knows how the Pythagoreans hated beans, but they don't know why.
Pythagoras thought that beans contained the souls of the dead. When you died, you became a bean. Your afterlife is bean.

no wonder the neo-pythagoreans became so popular...

The Romans had an annual ghost exorcism holiday with certain laxative-related themes.
For just as beans cause the body to expel certain substances, they apparently do the same to unwanted household ghosts.
As seen in Cavendish’s “The Black Arts,” following Ovid.

I'm always fascinated by the Pythagoreans. A mathematical religious tradition that felt it necessary to drown a man either for discovering irrational numbers or for constructing a dodecahedron inside a sphere. Also they didn't eat beans

Legend has it that the Pythagoreans murdered the man who discovered that the diagonal of a unit square is an irrational number, upsetting their mathematical philosophy.

![Hippasus of Metapontum (/ˈhɪpəsəs/; Ancient Greek: Ἵππασος ὁ Μεταποντῖνος, Híppasos; c. 530 – c. 450 BC)[1] was a Greek philosopher and early follower of Pythagoras.[2][3] Little is known about his life or his beliefs, but he is sometimes credited with the discovery of the existence of irrational numbers. The discovery of irrational numbers is said to have been shocking to the Pythagoreans, and Hippasus is supposed to have drowned at sea, apparently as a punishment from the gods for divulging this and crediting it to himself instead of Pythagoras which was the norm in Pythagorean society. However, the few ancient sources who describe this story either do not mention Hippasus by name (e.g. Pappus)[4] or alternatively tell that Hippasus drowned because he revealed how to construct a dodecahedron inside a sphere.[5] The discovery of irrationality is not specifically ascribed to Hippasus by any ancient writer.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:fpruhuo22xkm5o7ttr2ktxdo/bafkreiaw36eqpg4p6pg23lr7dmgfjdxdfahukaljffgi2553wqebshah7m)
