Rhymes with cow? Rhymes with law? Never mind. The important thing is that tau equals two pi, and two pies are better than one.
You’ll find a more extensive explanation here.

Happy Tau Day! Though I can not begin to understand half the equations people say tau makes more sense in and really, really, love Pi the Irrational Concept, I agree that tau makes more sense in mathematics. (I suppose that it’s true, circles are made by their radius, not their diameter. It makes sense. I think.) Let’s celebrate! *throws tau*
Vi Hart was going to make tau today, right? No video, though. I wonder if she’ll post something in a few days about it. I want to know what the heck tau is in terms of food (It better not be pie), so I can see what I just threw.
What, no posts?
Well, anyway…
When we discover what tau looks like, we should make a emoticon of it, just like the pies.
Tau day was also the last day of school for me. Yesssssssssssssss!!!!!
Tau looks like this: τ
You can make it either by copying and pasting, or by typing τ .
Happy tau day! If I could think of how to celebrate, I’d celebrate, but I don’t, really.
Tau!
I’ve been trying to explain Tau to all my family, but it’s rather difficult since I don’t really understand most of the math involved.
This thread wasn’t here when it was the 28th for me and now that it’s here it’s the 29th (BIRTHDAY). Oh well. Happy late tau day! :tau:
