Please, help me! :)
This deserves more views, man. It's absolutely amazing.
Hello what do u think about ur comment 3 hrs ago
You're white. I mean right. But he's not white so people care not quite.
Didn't realize we needed a Dr. Tyson of math... until now.
Charismatic man talks in spanish about math.. I really like it)
"De Cabezon" = 'of big head'...you need a big head to fit all that math in there.
Me fascina esa combinación de matemática y carisma 💕
That was impressive wonderful talk , I really want to study math now .... and to learn Spanish :D
To be honest there were a few times I probably would have laughed even without the subtitles. He sure knows how to play a crowd.
Este señor, en persona, es sumamente humilde. Un ser humano extraordinario.
why everyone is focusing on the language and not the main point! our universal language is our brain, it is nice to accept each other
Yeah, just put it on a different channel so I don't have to subscribe to it.
I am in love with this guy! :) I am mathematician, I can prove it!!! ;)
adorable talk. I generally go for the talks that uses information and expertise in creative applications, but the ones that presents something so fundamental in our lives, like math, and forces us to think about it differently are always some of my favourites.
Math is forever; bitches are temporary.
Makes me smile every time. On the spot
Learning math was never so funny like this!! I love his explanation :) not sure
though if its because i have
a soft spot for spanish
language :D or that person really has a great way to explain difficult things in the easiest and funniest way possible!! Anyway, it was just great listening to this, thanx for have uploaded it! Love and math, mmm nice comparison ;D
jajaja, ojala hubieran mas docentes con ese carisma para las ciencias
Yay, they added subs to these so I can understand. Finally.
I really REALLY wish you guys would clearly label if something is not in English. Your description is in English, your video intro is in English and then dskrjnbgewjhrbgewujyrhg No idea on this planet what he is saying. Thanks.
That's why there are subtitles.
I hate hitting the back button, too.
2 years and still haven't hit 1M views. Seriously this needs more attention. I mean *Spanish is sexy.*
Superb !!!! Bravo !!! wonderful
So cool! Thanks Eduardo!
Damn, I was so excited to share this with my math-hating mother, but I think she hates subtitles even more than math... rats!
La mejor charla de ted que he visto hasta hoy
Math in Spanish? My worst nightmare!
wow genial esta charla
Muito, muito bom. Parabéns.
Dude's writing poetry about math in Spanish. Next level!
forever and ever!!!
What's the name of theorem about Hexagons and can someone find the 3d version too ?
great speach
just great!
math-pride: mode on!
That line at the end was really smooth hahaha 😅
Bravo!
Excelente
amaazing!!!!
buenisimo ...
Haha... love it.
The mathematician Eduardo Sáenz de Cabezón answers a question that students around the world hate in math subjects and what mathematics is for?, How is it useful in life and how to implement it?
hmm something doesn't quite seem right:
(0.1mm*2^50)/1000 = 112,589,990,684m
*But* one Astronomical Unit is 149,597,870,700m
can someone pls. tell me where I'm wrong?
***** ps. 4:22 for anyone wondering what I'm referring to
*****
I think the point is that it almost matches it :)
You're right. But the 50th power is under by .25AU while the 51st power puts you over by .5AU. I think he said 50 folds because it's the closer of the 2. I think that falls into the category of rounding/close enough.
It's just an approximation using round numbers to demonstrate how unintuitive exponential growth is.
It's part of "fuzzy math" theory.
Excellent stuff :D
Classico.
awesome talk
Άξιος.
the two lyrics are not match
Lui un grande! Peccato che la sincronizzazione della traduzione italiana sia pessima. Meglio lasciare inglese e spagnolo
No hay comparación. Las matemáticas son 79 veces más duras que el diamante. Por eso quienes las estudian terminan bien rayados
He is such an amazing speaker !! So much better than English bullshiters.
Subtiles are not well synchronised !
Genial!!! xD
el teorema de pitagoras, que es eso....jajaja
around 9:02 he says the structure can be found in nature, then without an example goes on to mention the Aquatic Center and somehow connecting math to take credit for Michael Phelps wins, wtf this guy has been taking too much math
I have the answer now :P
i truly Like u.
theorem!, not conjecture.
🤓😎🧐😈.
Which language is this?
Spanish!!
Algonquian
doblar una hoja, 50 veces es imposible
English pls m8
Terroristiananas There are closed captions.
adlsfreund I know, I just like listening to these talks in the background while doing something else.
Terroristiananas
Me too. I also come here to watch a video of a person doing a presentation, not focus all my attention at the bottom of the screen and just read from there. I might as well read a web page. It needs to be labelled so that people know what to expect.
Stay strong, ignorance.
Le Sexy Fish Horse Ignorance?
so who said that women don't like maths and go onto get a job working in it???? damn patriarchy...... Oh no wait it is women themselves
ok, pero si dices, 71.45% de personas, o sea, son 71 personas y .45% de persona, o sea un torso o un par de piernas, o cómo, q alguien me explique!
jaja, 71.45% de las personas es el porcentaje del total inmenso de la audiencia, se podía explicar diciendo que si hubieran 10000 personas 7145 pertencen a ese porcentaje y así no matamos a nadie. Tu interpetación trágica es para cuando se habla de sólo cien personas. Es que hay que ser...
Jorge Montero pinche mamón, por eso preguntaba en buena onda... eso de "es que hay que ser" ... mamón como tu, con baja autoestima para sentirse mejor por que sabes "un poco más" de matemáticas?, pendejo.
Jajaja, y tú soltando tus lisuras, troglodita
y sigues de pendejo
ya ni me respondas por que te ves más mal
Oh, god, so many English mistakes.
Boy please
Yo odio la matematica!!
monica lewinsky gets to share a stage with this guy? either I can be an expert mathematician or blow a president and I get to talk on ted.
Funny, well presented, but nothing of value.
