This year is a perfect square: 2025 = 45². Most of us reading this at time of posting won’t be alive next time that happens since 46² = 2116, 91 years from now. This has been bouncing around the internet but for some reason I felt compelled to record it here!

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci first time I see it, so, thanks for sharing! I would say none of us will be around for 46^2. 😅

@bender@twtxt.net I’m hoping my little one makes it that long; it’s possible! Unless some medical miracle occurs I’ll be long ago converted to dust by then.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci @bender Sweet, I wasn’t aware of that either.

There’s also this:

; 1**3 + 2**3 + 3**3 + 4**3 + 5**3 + 6**3 + 7**3 + 8**3 + 9**3
        2025

😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s neat, good old $\sum_{i=1}^{9} i^3$ (let’s see if yarnd’s markdown parser has LaTeX support or not ;-)).
