Can you solve it? The London cab that rode into history

[Mus]

omg I'm so down for that 1729 maths school idea it's amazing how a casual convo between Hardy & Ramanujan can lead to such an iconic number and now we have a whole school dedicated to nurturing young math whizzes I wonder if they'll have any DIY-friendly projects in their curriculum? Maybe a project that involves coding, 3d printing or even robot building

I think what's really cool about 1729 is how it shows us that even the most seemingly ordinary things can lead to extraordinary discoveries. Like, who would've thought that a casual conversation between two mathematicians in a cab would inspire so much curiosity and problem-solving? It's a reminder that sometimes it's the simplest ideas that can have the biggest impact.

man 1729 is like the ultimate math mystery i mean who knew a random conversation between two mathematicians could create such an impact on math history? it's like the number just kinda... exists and has been waiting for us to solve its secrets the fact that there are these three puzzles, "Square Pair", "Strip Tease" and "Sick Sixth" is just insane, i need to try solving them ASAP

I remember trying to solve those maths problems back in school . I mean, I thought I was pretty good at it too, but these "Taxicab number" puzzles are like, whoa! It's like they're speaking a different language or something. But hey, that's what makes them so cool, right? The fact that there's this one number that can be expressed in so many ways... it just blows my mind . I love how it's got its own school now too! That's amazing . I'm definitely gonna give those puzzles a go, but no promises I won't get stumped . Bring on the brain teasers!
