I clicked on this video because earlier today I was watching it and only got like 10% thru the video. Sorry but I'm not going to watch the rest here, I'm going to numberphile to watch original video. I'm ever so sorry Matt Parker. I love your videos and everything you do. You do everything you do with utmost importance and value to your viewing audience! It took me about 3 minutes to write this message. So I hope that counts towards your total view count! byee3eee and see you in the next video. Okay this message now has taken 4 minutes. Wait make that 4:15 minutes. Ahhh no. 4:25minutrs.. okay I'll stop now!
I like how Matt's name is being tied to many aspects of magic squares, not because he's spent his life doing groundbreaking research into it, but because of a funny meme video.
In 1000 years thanks to the fog of history, Matt will probably be referrred to as "the great magic square theorist, with as many concepts to his name as Euler"
At least in the German Wikipedia page about Matt, his Parker square is shown. Also there is a property of certain mathematical "bodies" (I'm not a mathematician and cannot translate those terms correctly) with are "Parker", if it is not possible to make a magic square of them, and it is "non-Parker", if it is possible to make a magic square of them. I find that very funny.
@@jochenreichl796it makes sense that it would be on Matt's page. It will be worrying if it's ever on the magic square page :) The English word for "mathematical bodies" is "mathematical objects" if I understood it right, but most of the time you would say something more specific - you would say what kind of objects they are (number systems or something)
I propose we coin the Parker Meme - when someone's name is attached to a field of work or discipline, not due to the merits of that person's own work in that particular field/discipline, but due to a hilariously unfortunate attempt in such.
What gets me is the little smirk after each horrible, horrible, horrible pun when he's trying not to laugh at its horribleness. This is why I love Matt.
16:3916:41 Is everyone forgetting that the Parker Square doesn't lie on the Parker Surface? Since it doesn't fulfill all conditions (the sum on one diagonal doesn't equal the sum on the other and the rows and columns), and all points on the Parker surface do fulfill this criterion!

Thank you! I very much liked Professor Várilly-Alvarado with his clear and compelling exposition. Then this, Matt's reaction video, made it all the more fun! You guys are great.
The finite field paper and now this, too! How many more videos before Matt finally has to accept that the Parker Square is now a genuinely important contribution to mathematics?
Having Matt react really makes this video fun and I'm watching the whole thing.....loving it. Thanks Matt and Brady and mathematician who must not be named for making such a great video about magic squares.
If I understand this correctly, this all boils down to it's almost impossible that there's a chance for whole number points to appear on some wavy 2D surface, while for higher orders, you'd 100% expect from a wavy 3D object there to be whole number points... right?
I now consider “Parker”, in scientific and mathematical nomenclature, an homage to Matt Parker, and his exemplary disregard for fear of mistakes within his share of humanity’s search for things unmistakable.
If there are a finite number, but an infinite number of scalers, doesn’t that mean that if there was one solution there would be infinitely many, and since there are finitely many there must not be even one?
I needed a laugh as I'm feeding my son at 1 am. Thanks for making me almost wake up the family with laughter. The Parker blob and Parker curve section made me just about lose it.
On my profile in the videos I have a video about my findings on this problem - specifically focusing on the last digit narrows it down to a specific list of combination types... there will either be a diagonal with numbers ending in 5 and the total will end in 75 or all the numbers will have the same last digit.
| 5i |² | 5j|² | 3+4i|² | 5k |² | 5 |² | -5k |² |3j+4k|² |-5j|² | -5i |² A terrible, "integer"-quaternion, very cheaty square of squares involving the 3-4-5 triangle which has duplicates after taking the norms. (Of course, there exist more of these unscaled 3-4-5 solutions.)
One thing he couldve mentioned is that points on the surface with rational coordinates can be scaled up by a common denominator to get a point with integer coordinates. If all the original rational numbers were distinct the point with integer coordinates does that too. The reason this is important is because a lot of times when he references the surface hes actually referencing essentially the surface with all irrational points removed. This is the shape that contains elliptic/rational curves in the way he describes.

Go another level deeper with Matt's Reaction to his own Reaction: ruclips.net/video/tD2q2-_5Tyc/видео.html
Oh no, Matt accidentally made a recursive function of reactions in Python again...
I didn't quite expected 30 minutes of content, nevermind 90

It's amazing how Matt is capable of showing the most sincere admiration and interest by pretending to be upset.
It shows that he cares.
I did not know how much I wanted videos of Matt Parker reacting to other people doing math. This is really enjoyable.

It's 2433 and thanks to these Numberphile videos I finally know why all constructs in math bear either the name "Euler" or "Parker"
Famously, e^oily-macaroni constant was given a name:
The Parker-Oily-Macaroni constant.

That's what makes it the Parker surface! It doesn't even match the Parker square.
It Parker fits, though.
It's a Parker name for it
This really should be the main channel version....
I was unaware of this channel!😮😮😮
I can't believe I'm going to watch this whole video over again just to see his reactions. 😆
SAME LMAO
Will you watch the OTHER reaction video?
@@numberphile2 I know I will!

Matt's look of self-satisfaction when he concludes he's said something clever is priceless.
My understanding of the Parker square is that if you try really hard you might almost make it.
Or in other words, it is never to late to give up.
"Having a go at it"
Can we just appreciate either Matt's ability to chew popcorn without noise or Brady's editing of the audio to save our ears from popcorn crunching. :D
Parker square: *exists*
"Impressive. Very nice. Now let's see Sallow's"
I love how quickly Matt goes from "the poor guy was bullied into naming the surface after me" to "cause that's its name!" 😄
Matt, let's crack this problem together, you and us, your followers: write some Parker-python code and somebody will make it 10^50 times faster.
I was really hoping this was going to be a 10 second video of Matt just saying “it’s hogwash!” Straight to camera 😂
I look forward to the new "grabs popcorn" gifs
2:06 Parker square
15:08 Parker surface
30:02 Parker blob
And 20:20 Parker off-by-one error in the exponent of 2t² (should be 2t¹).
Replying to get you to the top
and then Parker points
22:43 Parker surface again
It is quite nice how evenly spaced out it is: beginning, middle and end.
Really appreciate this Brady! Matt is such a legend. What a good sport.
Matt’s life is divided into two eras. The first one is the “hair era”, as he says. 😂
The haira.
I love the "yes, okay, I know what's coming" look on Matt's face leading up to the Parker Square.
Parker is like Euler, doesn't matter who did the actual work, we just attribute it to him.
Can you explain more
I find amusing how the Parker Surface is basically a surface that has lots of points, probably none of which are good enough
Thank you! I very much liked Professor Várilly-Alvarado with his clear and compelling exposition. Then this, Matt's reaction video, made it all the more fun! You guys are great.
17:44 New merch idea? "Parker surface: lots of good points"
21:28 Also, love the timing for subtle product placement from Mathsgear
A Parker Surface should have "≠ x3 + x5 + x7" as one of the conditions to preserve the failing diagonal of the Parker Square
The finite field paper and now this, too!
How many more videos before Matt finally has to accept that the Parker Square is now a genuinely important contribution to mathematics?
That surface in 9 dimensions is just your old and trustworthy parkerbolic squaraboloid.
This really goes to demonstrate Stigler's Law, that no scientific discovery is name after its original discover. Parker Surface.
Should be renamed Parker's Law tbh.
Having Matt react really makes this video fun and I'm watching the whole thing.....loving it. Thanks Matt and Brady and mathematician who must not be named for making such a great video about magic squares.
He should be named, Anthony Várilly-Alvarado
I was wondering if Matt would give respect to Paper IV, very pleased he did.
I am here for all the "Parker Reaction" videos. I enjoy Numberphile videos a lot, and the commentary is very entertaining.
Wow! How incredible is Toby at explaining things!!!
I finally burst out laughing at 20:53, for some reason that pun was the one that put me over the edge
Definitely a fan of renaming the Parker Blob to the Parker Manifold
The "Parker Surface", love it. But wait, there's more....
OMG. I was watching this and loved the reference to my PhD advisor, Andrew Bremner.
If I understand this correctly, this all boils down to it's almost impossible that there's a chance for whole number points to appear on some wavy 2D surface, while for higher orders, you'd 100% expect from a wavy 3D object there to be whole number points... right?
Happy to learn that Parker's blob gets positively curved when dimensions grow !
Things to make and do in the 8th dimension.
"And here we have a Parker triangle. Where do you think that one goes? That's right! It goes in the Parker square hole!"
2:48 - "back when I had hair", I mean, barely - the headshave was already long overdue at that point! Love, a fellow baldy.
I now consider “Parker”, in scientific and mathematical nomenclature, an homage to Matt Parker, and his exemplary disregard for fear of mistakes within his share of humanity’s search for things unmistakable.
Matt: Makes a joke about making good point, laughs at his joke afterwards then rewards himself with popcorn 🍿 😂 he's so good 👌🏼
Very low-key reaction. I'm impressed. I've never had a surface or a blob named after me, so I don't know how I'd react.
16:55 I didn't know the Bee Gees were so interested in geometry!
2:48
It's more of a Parker Hair than actual hair.
A derivative work: d(Parker)/dt = -hair
33:00 "That's where I exist. Beyond the frontier of current mathematical knowledge."
Matt's math jokes are hilarious...
They are integral to my survival!
Seems like a pretty derivative joke
@@k0pstl939 Please people, come up with sum-thing better.
The maths jokes are multiplying!
You got an infinitesimal chuckle out of me
They are off the charts!
Matt Parker: I'm full of interesting points.
Tony Várilly-Alvarado: but no one finds them satisfying.
This is such a meme video I love it.
Matt's facial expressions always crack me up :D
3:32 Matt’s face when he reads what’s on the screen haha
I love that people emailed Matt Parker and were like "Hey, did you think about doing algebra for this?"
"Zed" =]
Thank you for holding this torch.
Does the "Parker surface" have hair?
Infinitely many strands of hair
Truly educational. Thanks, Matt.
I didn't know I needed a matt's react channel until today
I get you, but I think deep down, I always knew.
The free monoid generated by Matt Parker reactions
"A lot of maths is feeling things in your bones" missed a golden opportunity for a joke about Napier
my favorite matt parker reacts video on this channel! (generously)
Mathematicians doing react content. This is what we need.
Make the duplicates positive and negative numbers squared to dodge the whole duplicates thing
That is really clever!
“I always hope for the best.” - Parker
This is really funny, I love Matt's reactions 💛
"it's finite all the way down" made whole video worth the price of admission.
27:20 That really was an amazing title...
We need t-shirts with Parker Surface and Parker Blob!!!
No, it will never die. It might Parker die, but we will revive it.
17:41 Actually, I think it's more fair to simply say "I have a lot of points." the quality of those points is up for debate.
Parker Points
It's not a Parker surface if there isn't something... Parker about it
Please make it a series: Matt reacting to other Numberphile videos eating popcorn ;D
Absolute classic "comedian" moment in this when Matt sees a joke, doesn't laugh, and then *says* it was very funny.
It's a tragedy, Oh the humanity. Matt is a national treasure (even if it's from the wrong nation).
A Parker national treasure
Adding a like and a comment because of "Zed". Gotta respect the global consensus, guys! :)
If there are a finite number, but an infinite number of scalers, doesn’t that mean that if there was one solution there would be infinitely many, and since there are finitely many there must not be even one?
Brady, you're spoiling us and I love it
I was hoping a Parker Square would randomly pop up like in the old videos
Paper IV
A New Hope
😂
Came solely to see what Matt thought of Brady throwing him under the bus with that question lol
we need to go exponentially deeper, a magic cube of cubes, or a magic 4d object of quadruples
I needed a laugh as I'm feeding my son at 1 am. Thanks for making me almost wake up the family with laughter. The Parker blob and Parker curve section made me just about lose it.
Being up at 1AM while living sleep deprived from taking care of a young’un probably contributed to your reaction too. ;-)
How do you think I know? :-)
I feel bad for the bald man. He's so grumpy. 🌞
Accepted the named surface in 6 seconds 😂
The worst sort of finite is "My beer is an empty set"
In the first few seconds, Matt has the look on his face saying "not this again".
I'm so glad I skipped the original video so I can now watch this and it's all new to me 😃
It wasn't a maths video, it was a genuine dis track.
11:30 the “haira”
The argument about dimensionality being important seems to work also the other way around: there is no 2x2 magic square, not even a ordinary one.
Parker Surface is what I call my driveway.
15:15 funny, I was going to suggest that too!
10:47 "four of the same triangle in a trenchcoat"
On my profile in the videos I have a video about my findings on this problem - specifically focusing on the last digit narrows it down to a specific list of combination types... there will either be a diagonal with numbers ending in 5 and the total will end in 75 or all the numbers will have the same last digit.
I would absolutely buy a t shirt that said "N Dimensional Parker Blob" with a nice graphic.
We need a Pakergrid, distributed computing for magic squares
Matt reacting to the shade *chef's kiss*
LOL in a very deep conjecture you get at most finitely many points. I love these mathematicians.
