Listening to Terrence Howard feels like a teenager trying to explain his acid trip to his parents.

Was out of the loop on this, actor Terrence Howard released a proof that 1x1 = 2.

Well, “proof”.

"plus ellen A B that is equal to the" ... at https://youtu.be/4ChuiS6lUv0?si=35bpjGt3QRBTJ1hv&t=32

does not give any confidence the producer understand what's even being said.

(they just threw some auto captions in there)

ellen is supposed to be "ln()" as in a logarithmic function

This feels like one of those game adverts of someone intentionally playing a game poorly because it’s a good engagement hack.

People discussing actual mathematical theorems isn’t going to get any engagement, so you have to throw in something batshit insane and simple for average people to want to watch it.

When you learn all the magic words, it easy to fool even real scientists for a moment or two. I managed discuss with David Deutsch at least thrice in Usenet until he finally understood I am full of shit.

   "You know these words you are using have actual meanings".

Yes, we've really sunk to this: a rebel theoretical physicist feels the need to debate a guy who claims 1 × 1 = 2, presumably just to get some more publicity.

Howard's Wikipedia page hints at how he became this confused: "He has been married four times to three women". So one times one was two.

Terrance don’t give up! Simple minds will never understand things they can’t. Open minds to new ideas among closed channels lead no where because they don’t understand. Physics and math are both off. You just need the documentaions of success in today’s world. Get your schooling and make them understand. That’s the only thing that’s making doubt.

Terrence, that you?

Simple minds do think alike. Open minds do not!

I watched it with interest and left very disappointed. 4 hours of round and round we go... Eric is too much of a gentleman. He needs to steel ball himself and send people like Ironman to the scrapheap. Marvel characters are not required to excel at mathematics. Eric should focus his enormous capacity on something which will benefit humanity NOW. Perhaps politics. I can't think of anyone better equipped than him to hold, and destroy the trigger to the nuke.
