I clicked on this video because earlier today I was watching it and only got like 10% thru the video. Sorry but I'm not going to watch the rest here, I'm going to numberphile to watch original video. I'm ever so sorry Matt Parker. I love your videos and everything you do. You do everything you do with utmost importance and value to your viewing audience! It took me about 3 minutes to write this message. So I hope that counts towards your total view count! byee3eee and see you in the next video. Okay this message now has taken 4 minutes. Wait make that 4:15 minutes. Ahhh no. 4:25minutrs.. okay I'll stop now!
I like how Matt's name is being tied to many aspects of magic squares, not because he's spent his life doing groundbreaking research into it, but because of a funny meme video.

In 1000 years thanks to the fog of history, Matt will probably be referrred to as "the great magic square theorist, with as many concepts to his name as Euler"

At least in the German Wikipedia page about Matt, his Parker square is shown. Also there is a property of certain mathematical "bodies" (I'm not a mathematician and cannot translate those terms correctly) with are "Parker", if it is not possible to make a magic square of them, and it is "non-Parker", if it is possible to make a magic square of them. I find that very funny.

@@jochenreichl796it makes sense that it would be on Matt's page. It will be worrying if it's ever on the magic square page :) The English word for "mathematical bodies" is "mathematical objects" if I understood it right, but most of the time you would say something more specific - you would say what kind of objects they are (number systems or something)

I propose we coin the Parker Meme - when someone's name is attached to a field of work or discipline, not due to the merits of that person's own work in that particular field/discipline, but due to a hilariously unfortunate attempt in such.
It's amazing how Matt is capable of showing the most sincere admiration and interest by pretending to be upset.

What gets me is the little smirk after each horrible, horrible, horrible pun when he's trying not to laugh at its horribleness. This is why I love Matt.
I did not know how much I wanted videos of Matt Parker reacting to other people doing math. This is really enjoyable.
It's 2433 and thanks to these Numberphile videos I finally know why all constructs in math bear either the name "Euler" or "Parker"

Famously, e^oily-macaroni constant was given a name: The Parker-Oily-Macaroni constant.
Parker is like Euler, doesn't matter who did the actual work, we just attribute it to him.

My understanding of the Parker square is that if you try really hard you might almost make it. Or in other words, it is never to late to give up.

16:39 16:41 Is everyone forgetting that the Parker Square doesn't lie on the Parker Surface? Since it doesn't fulfill all conditions (the sum on one diagonal doesn't equal the sum on the other and the rows and columns), and all points on the Parker surface do fulfill this criterion!

A Parker Surface should have "≠ x3 + x5 + x7" as one of the conditions to preserve the failing diagonal of the Parker Square
I love the "yes, okay, I know what's coming" look on Matt's face leading up to the Parker Square.

I was wondering if Matt would give respect to Paper IV, very pleased he did.
Thank you! I very much liked Professor Várilly-Alvarado with his clear and compelling exposition. Then this, Matt's reaction video, made it all the more fun! You guys are great.
The finite field paper and now this, too! How many more videos before Matt finally has to accept that the Parker Square is now a genuinely important contribution to mathematics?
I finally burst out laughing at 20:53, for some reason that pun was the one that put me over the edge
Having Matt react really makes this video fun and I'm watching the whole thing.....loving it. Thanks Matt and Brady and mathematician who must not be named for making such a great video about magic squares.

Happy to learn that Parker's blob gets positively curved when dimensions grow !
Brady, you're spoiling us and I love it
OMG. I was watching this and loved the reference to my PhD advisor, Andrew Bremner.
3:32 Matt’s face when he reads what’s on the screen haha
What about a cube of cubes? Or larger? Does the minimum dimension increase by one as the n of n goes up?
If I understand this correctly, this all boils down to it's almost impossible that there's a chance for whole number points to appear on some wavy 2D surface, while for higher orders, you'd 100% expect from a wavy 3D object there to be whole number points... right?

Mathematicians doing react content. This is what we need.
Absolute classic "comedian" moment in this when Matt sees a joke, doesn't laugh, and then *says* it was very funny.
“I always hope for the best.” - Parker
I now consider “Parker”, in scientific and mathematical nomenclature, an homage to Matt Parker, and his exemplary disregard for fear of mistakes within his share of humanity’s search for things unmistakable.

Very low-key reaction. I'm impressed. I've never had a surface or a blob named after me, so I don't know how I'd react.

Matt reacting to the shade *chef's kiss*
In the first few seconds, Matt has the look on his face saying "not this again".
19:58 Especially the calculus
We need t-shirts with Parker Surface and Parker Blob!!!
No, it will never die. It might Parker die, but we will revive it.
Came solely to see what Matt thought of Brady throwing him under the bus with that question lol
Oh heck I wish I had just watched this one
This is a point on the surface where popculture intersects with math.
What would be cool actually is to show tho is that to make a magic square of nth powers you need at least n^n dimensions. If it works for 2 it should work in general right?
17:41 Actually, I think it's more fair to simply say "I have a lot of points." the quality of those points is up for debate.

Parker Points
Matt, why is this not on your channel?
Parker Surface. Classic.
The worst sort of finite is "My beer is an empty set"
perhaps i misunderstand, but wouldn't a sporadic point that satisfies this have to be part of a curve, since we can take scalar multiples of it?
On my profile in the videos I have a video about my findings on this problem - specifically focusing on the last digit narrows it down to a specific list of combination types... there will either be a diagonal with numbers ending in 5 and the total will end in 75 or all the numbers will have the same last digit.
We need a Pakergrid, distributed computing for magic squares
"it's finite all the way down" made whole video worth the price of admission.
33:20 I was blown away
2:48 - "back when I had hair", I mean, barely - the headshave was already long overdue at that point! Love, a fellow baldy.
Adding a like and a comment because of "Zed". Gotta respect the global consensus, guys! :)
I was hoping a Parker Square would randomly pop up like in the old videos
Matt: Makes a joke about making good point, laughs at his joke afterwards then rewards himself with popcorn 🍿 😂 he's so good 👌🏼
😂 I broke at the Parker Blob...
It's not a Parker surface if there isn't something... Parker about it
Since I'm not British, can someone tell me if the phrase "Matt Parker is positively curved!" is a compliment or an insult? It sounds like a British insult. If it isn't, perhaps Matt just invented the Parker Insult.
