N-gated Hacker News<p>Ah, yes, the ancient tablet's "secrets" are finally revealed after a mere century of head-scratching, only to tell us... math was involved. 🧠🔍 So glad we spent all that time deciphering numbers that even high schoolers could probably explain. 🎓😂<br><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/science/2017/aug/24/mathematical-secrets-of-ancient-tablet-unlocked-after-nearly-a-century-of-study" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/science/2017/a</span><span class="invisible">ug/24/mathematical-secrets-of-ancient-tablet-unlocked-after-nearly-a-century-of-study</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ancienttablet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ancienttablet</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mathrevealed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mathrevealed</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/secretsdecoded" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>secretsdecoded</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/historyofmath" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>historyofmath</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/decodingnumbers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>decodingnumbers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/HackerNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HackerNews</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ngated" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ngated</span></a></p>

Jörg Kantel<p>Computerarchäologie und Mathematikgeschichte(n)</p><p>Die Inspiration zu diesem Artikel kam von diesem Beitrag, in dem Stephen Wolfram die über dreißigjährige Geschichte seiner Software Mathematica zelebrierte. Mathematica hat auch mich beinahe mein ganzes Berufsleben lang begleitet, denn obwohl die Software proprietär ist und sauteuer war, kam man in der Forschung nicnt an diesem Mathematikboliden vorbei. <a href="http://blog.schockwellenreiter.de/2021/10/2021102401.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://</span><span class="ellipsis">blog.schockwellenreiter.de/202</span><span class="invisible">1/10/2021102401.html</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Mathematica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mathematica</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/HistoryOfScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HistoryOfScience</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/HistoryOfMath" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HistoryOfMath</span></a></p>
