The Hottest New π’s to Celebrate for Pi Day
Scientific American is about actually learning something at Pi Day. What if you could celebrate Pi Day any day in March? Well, apparently you can but it won’t be Pi Day plus Einstein’s birthday.
“It’s Pi Day again! I used to feel a profound disconnect with this holiday, but over the years since I started writing about math, I’ve grudgingly started to appreciate it as an opportunity to learn or write about math I wouldn’t have otherwise. I’m sure you can find a pie to eat or a digit reciting contest to partake in, but I think a better way to celebrate the circle constant is by learning something new.” Evelyn Lamb
