      I love numberphile for explaining complex math in a simple, engaging way while also making me feel stupid for not understanding it once done.

      I’m a science major, I should be able to understand it, yet I feel like I’m five.

      I was gonna say it’s sciencey sounding dribble wrapped in pseudo-poetic gush. ChatGPT is my main suspect.
