   Yeah, the truly surprising part of Euler's identity isn't that; it's “exponentiation is a sprial.”

     I like Euler's identity. But it's also just sort of saying "cos(180 degrees) = -1"

     @futurebird euler's identity blows my mind every single time. like, here we are chatting about natural logs all nice and casual then someone mentions pi and it's like ok so then what happens? some wise-ass throws in a an imaginary number and all of a sudden we are are at negative one. wtf? 🤯
