"pi is wrong" It's just hyperbole to get everyone's attention. From that perspective it's pretty good I reckon.

- alexvoda 6y agoIt is not yet another article about Tau, it is THE original article about Tau. As in, the one who proclaimed this is the symbol and name of the symbol that should replace Pi. There were others before that suggested other symbols like a Pi with three legs. The concept of Tau is not new. The issue at this point is just convincing people to use Tau and getting it into textbooks. And for this purpose, the loudness of the manifest by claiming Pi is wrong has worked wonderfully. The topic has been debated and reiterated plenty if times using this title.
