Billionaires are the modern equivalent of dragons. They hoard wealth, regularly despoil the local environment, and we'd all appreciate a knight slaying them for us.

Knot tiles with the math club this week (inspired by @divbyzero.bsky.social and @anniekp.bsky.social #mathartchallenge day 22). Random numbers, binary, knot theory, probability... so much to talk about. #ITeachMath docs.google.com/presentation...
