  1. Today's #procrastination presents: #Ovals, a harmless fun with geometry.

    Did you know ovals, by definition, do not require symmetry?

    If you are a math layperson I 100 % recommend ovals to you.

    They are easy enough to be explored by the layperson, but not too intuitive by a first glance.
    They can refresh your circle and triangle construction skills.
    I find they make good re/introductions if basic analysis and geometry.
    They make one of the cuter shapes.

    Feel free to derail into programming exercisrs or even discourses of mathematic platonism anytime.

    In sum:
