Deadly Boring Math

A collection of articles on a variety of mathematical topics, written by students, ranging from basic algebra to multivariable calculus.

Processed in a facility that also makes physics.

Deadly Boring Math is looking for authors!!!!!

Recent developments (see: a very unfortunate major change) have led me to the point where I won't be taking very math-heavy courses in the future. To keep DBMUS alive, consider shooting me your math or physics notes for author credit and bragging rights!

Disclaimer (important!)

If you're here because you're taking Differential Equations at Georgia Tech this summer, and you can't find the notes, click the word "Calculus" in the sidebar and then click whichever post takes your fancy. The first one can be found here.

All the old posts were written in LibreOffice Writer. The new site design (fancy Sitix templates!) interferes somethin' awful with them, so I'm moving them over by hand... ugh. All of the unupdated posts are listed below:

Update: at this point it can be reasonably assumed that I am never going to finish moving the old posts over, or ever update the news section.

Physics 2 Exam 2 Reviwe
Much physics to be had, yesssss!

The name was an accident. At first.
Compass Angle Hell
This problem involved too much trig for my tastes. Why must there always be trig????
Mathin' a Cos Rose
Wherein Tyler wishes math weren't stupid.
That One Physics Question
this took me way too long to solve

covers some pretty simple circuitry equations
Multivariable Calculus Exam 1 (Thomas 12.1 -> 14.2)
By Tyler Clarke
Note: doesn't include limits of multivariable functions.

About the Author

Tyler Clarke is a ~~physics student~~ computer engineering student in the class of '26 at the Georgia Institute of Technology. He's also the web developer who made this site, and the backend developer who made the templating software that makes this site possible, and the sysadmin who runs the cluster that hosts this site.

He started Deadly Boring Math as a place to dump math notes, and it grew into... a place to dump math notes.

Ah well, ain't like I can get a refund on the domain name.

Analytics, Cookies, Privacy

Deadly Boring Math doesn't serve ads. If you know of any non-evil (see: open source, GDPR compliant, no trackers or illicit data sharing) advertising services, you should tell us about them. We do serve analytics, through the open source selfhosted analytics service Umami. They don't use cookies, and they fully comply with GDPR. All of the analytics data stays on my server. Google does not get to see it, nor does any big tech company. I can't view your IP address, location, or any other potentially compromising data through Umami's reports. TLDR (even though it isn't very long): we care about privacy, do not want to make Deadly Boring Math a typical awful experience, and have gone well out of our way to ensure Google et al don't get their grubby hands on our beloved visitors.

I'm honestly not sure if Umami is serving trackers or not. It's probably fine.
