A new talk by Grant Sanderson, the mathematician behind the 3Blue1Brown education channel, examines what he calls math's pedagogical curse — the way mathematical ideas that are elegant once understood can be notoriously hard to teach, with notation and structure that obscure intuition for learners. The video is drawing attention on developer and education forums, where commenters are debating how math should be explained and why traditional instruction so often fails to build genuine understanding.

Bernie Sanders travelled to San Francisco to campaign for a wealth tax under the banner 'Ballots Over Billionaires', lending his political star power to the measure.
