Niels Abel, born exactly 224 years ago today, proved at 21 that there is no algebraic formula to solve equations of degree 5, settling a 250-year-old problem.
He paid the printer himself and compressed the proof to 6 pages to cut costs. He sent a copy to Gauss, who never responded. Abel died of tuberculosis at 26. Two days later, a letter arrived announcing he'd been appointed professor in Berlin.

The EBU have stated that 4 people were removed from the arena for disruptive behaviour during tonight’s #Eurovisjon.
They have now edited out the chants of "stop the genocide" from the official video of Israel’s performance.
Here is what was heard live vs what’s now on YouTube:

The EBU's commitment to the Streisand Effect, blacklisting 🇵🇹Portugal🇵🇹 for tiny keffiyeh fingernails almost no one could've noticed on TV, is such absurdly bad PR.
#Eurovision

🇵🇹 The EBU has not uploaded Portugal’s performance to the official YouTube channel.
I’m at a loss for words. Absolutely appalling behavior.
Fire them all. It’s what they deserve.
