Já que o assunto dos últimos dias foi a Parada Gay de São Paulo, aí vai um vídeo para os nerds (nerds gays!) apaixonados pelos ângulos retos (???) pela matemática e que participaram ativamente (ou passivamente) do evento.

Não sei inglês, mas achei o vídeo engraçado.

Letrinha para acompanhar:

I Will Derive
Paródia de “I Will Survive”

At first I was afraid, what could the answer be?
It said given this position find velocity.
So I tried to work it out, but I knew that I was wrong.
I struggled; I cried, “A problem shouldn’t take this long!”
I tried to think, control my nerve.
It’s evident that speed’s tangential to that time-position curve.
This problem would be mine if I just knew that tangent line.
But what to do? Show me a sign!

So I thought back to Calculus.
Way back to Newton and to Leibniz,
And to problems just like this.
And just like that when I had given up all hope,
I said nope, there’s just one way to find that slope.
And so now I, I will derive.
Find the derivative of x position with respect to time.
It’s as easy as can be, just have to take dx/dt.
I will derive, I will derive. Hey, hey!

And then I went ahead to the second part.
But as I looked at it I wasn’t sure quite how to start.
It was asking for the time at which velocity
Was at a maximum, and I was thinking “Woe is me.”
But then I thought, this much I know.
I’ve gotta find acceleration, set it equal to zero.
Now if I only knew what the function was for a.
I guess I’m gonna have to solve for it someway.

So I thought back to Calculus.

I said nope, there’s just one way to find that slope.
And so now I, I will derive.
Find the derivative of velocity with respect to time.
It’s as easy as can be, just have to take dv/dt.
I will derive, I will derive.

Nota: No dia 25, dia da Parada Gay, não havia um torcedor do Náutico em Recife. Que será que aconteceu? Devem ter ido se encontrar com torcedores do Corinthians.

****************************

Totalmente atrasado e também fora do assunto deste post, aproveito para agradecer ao Dorly Neto, que me incluiu em uma brincadeira em seu blog. Ele transformou algumas figuras da blogosfera em personagens dos Simpsons. Destaque para o Anderssauro, o Fred e o Gera (sacanagem!), ficaram iguais!

E a versão Simpson do Sampson? Ficou diferente, pois ele pegou uma foto que emenda minha face esquerda com minha face esquerda, uma montagem que tem no meu perfil. Mas meu cunhado já diz que eu sou tão feio, mas tão feio, que mais pareço uma montagem no paint. Sendo assim, está beleza. Valeu! :(
