That's from that video about flipping a sphere inside out that I'm sure someone thinks is an important and useful concept.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's interesting because it's highly counter-intuitive that such a thing is possible. It's not supposed to be useful except as an example of a false intuition, which can remind us to be careful in our reasoning.

"Such a thing is possible" It kind of isn't though? It's a sphere that can pass through itself but not be sharply creased...how are these rules not just made up?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Specifically, the thing that exists is a regular homotopy of immersions from the standard embedding to its opposite. The "rules" aren't supposed to be self evident, they're part of a broader context in topology

[–] someacnt_ 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Hmm, standard embedding to which dimension?

Welp, my head cannot comprehend how that is possible. How is it deforming the shape around?

Maybe I am confusing homotopy and isotopy again.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

indeed. how would the world work without this knowledge,

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 week ago

Does it still fit in the square hole?

Moebius is where I draw the line

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 week ago

OK, but what if I just add a 2nd moebius, and twisted them a little, and.... oops, Klein bottle!

[–] Godric 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Man I loved the part of the movie where he just Moebed on those guys

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

It's moebing time

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

Yeah but he's just gonna stab em with a fork anyway?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

Think about what that would do to your gut flora.

if Clifford Stoll gave me one of his Klein Bottles i would be quite happy

Also my favourite YouTuber

And yet it still goes in the Square Hole

I couldn't say no to this guy... But I'm not a responsible adult so I don't count.
