They're No. 1: U.S. Wins Math Olympiad For First Time In 21 Years
Source: NPR

In one of this year's most intense international competitions, the United States has come out as best in the world — and this time, we're not talking about soccer.

This week, the top-ranked math students from high schools around the country went head-to-head with competitors from more than 100 countries at the International Mathematical Olympiad in Chiang Mai, Thailand. And, for the first time in more than two decades, they won.

Po-Shen Loh, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University and head coach for Team USA, says the competition is held over the course of two days. Students work on three math problems each.

"If you can even solve one question," Loh tells NPR's Arun Rath, "you're a bit of a genius."

Can you imagine the NERVE of those kids, not being black or female? What, they never heard of TRANSGENDER?

14. Congrats to Team America! Sad no women on the team. nt

     It's a math competition. I doubt there was a kitchen there. (a lurking DUmmy will actually, in real life, be offended by that remark)

11. What changes, structural and otherwise, can white people make to get rid of racism? Any smart kids

wanna give this one a shot?


Wonder if they give them room to be good human beings?


     I have a change for you, almost-certainly-white jtuck004: go **** yourself. It might not cure racism, but at least you went and ****ed yourself.

Here's a math competition question for the female contenders:

"If I tell you to go out in the kitchen and make me a sammich, and three of my friends come over, but one of them leaves, how many sammiches would you make?"

The answer: All of them.

  • Make America Great Again. Deport some DUmmies.
The only thing that this 'disparity' has to do with are the kid's parents. If the parents aren't pushing their kids to achieve, they usually won't. - its much easier to send Tweets, post on Facebook, and other time wasting activities.

Sadly, too many parents feel if their kid is happy - then life is good.

Hmmmmm ... if the four guys with medals were the American team then two are "white", one looks east Asian, and the other looks south Asian (perhaps Indian?). I wonder how many of the other 99 nations' teams had that much diversity. IOW, the "significance" of what these DU-folk "saw" in that picture is what those DU-folk brought to it in their own hearts.

DU-folk seem unable to conceive of the fact that these young men - and not any women, blacks, Hispanics, and (apparently) Native Americans - are there because of their choices, un-coerced or -forced by government fiat.

I hope those Math Olympiad winners were able to spend some time there in Chiang Mai. I've heard it's a beautiful and interesting city.

I bet in other years, we sent a more "diversified" group, and got our butts kicked.

I also love that Indians/Asians no longer qualify as diverse.

Simple.  Eradicate the (D)Marxist party.  Problem solved.
              

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

Yeah, funny  how that works. The 'rainbow coalition' might look good on paper, but you pick a team based on the BEST PERFORMANCE of the team members.   

And all the sudden Indians and asians are 'white'? They need to make up their mind on their racism.

ETC: mind

East Asians have been un-PC minorities for some time now, for daring to be successful and thereby demonstrating that discrimination is uncommon or rare and increasingly impotent. South Asians are similarly becoming un-PC, for the same reason.

And this is why the DUmbasses fail. They believe that the best should not be picked. They believe that skin color is more important than ability. They believe that feelings are worth more than results.

Well, girls can't do math and they eliminated the home economics/home living classes in the public schools so what good are they now? Oh yeah, there is that,  :-)

Talk about antifeminist, that's me this morning.  :-) Would run for the hills but I'm tired from picking peas/tomatoes.

If you pick, shell, blanch and freeze peas, does that make you a liberal girly man?

     This is how the DUmmie/liberal/PC school of thought destroys everything. First they notice there are no blacks or women on the team, so they stick a few on there and they feel good. Then they get the dog shit kicked out them by every other team, and they do a slow burn as some other team gets their medals. They throw a fit until EVERYONE gets medals, and then the kids who are worth a damn stop competing because they're no longer distinguishable from some lulu hippie who can barely differentiate a function. Schools and parents who've had enough of that bullshit form new groups and competitions, and it isn't long before the whole cycle repeats itself. Meanwhile kids continue to have the same distribution of skills and potential, some of whom realize all of it come hell or high water, but most of whom never realize squat because of some liberal do-gooder hang-wringer still butthurt that they never won anything.

     Now, for you lurking moron asshole DUmmies, this is no way implies that there are no mathematical prodigies who are not male, white/asian. It's just that the institutions YOU set up to give your stupid indigo children "self esteem" actually make it HARDER for true genius to reveal itself.

They picked up on a tweet by some internet troll and suddenly turned her achievement into their pet crusade to bully people over something 98% of the people already agree with.
