Sorry I cut the Patreon scrolling spreadsheet of thanks short in the latest video (all about the area of a Squircle). The video of the spreadsheet should have been sped-up in the edit but we accidentally left it as the slow pace I originally captured it at. Which means it stopped in the Js.

So I (aka "Future Matt") have uploaded a listed video to my second channel with the full credits, making sure you all get the public acknowledgement you deserve.

Your names are in standard alpahebetical order this time, so they should be easy to find. Enjoy your digit!

Future Matt presents: the full Squircle 'Gauss constant' Patreon credits.

Sorry these got cut off in the main video. It's a long tedious story. Which you can now hear me explain! Watch as Future Matt commentates through the full 'Gauss constant' scrolling spreadsheet of Patreon credits.

You were the first and you will most likely not be the last.

I wish you could spend your time on something else than fixing the credits of an old video...

James McDonald Jr

Ha! It quit nearly spot on where my name would have been revealed. (5 off I believe)

Florian Linscheid

I you noticed and even made this video before publishing the main video, why not just swap the video? Because it's on brand and would be a waste of time?

In the main video, the segment beginning at 16:45 seems to be a second take of the ~30 seconds preceding it; I assume both takes making it into the edit was a mistake.

Maarten Daalder

I'm the second M in the credits. That usually doesn't happen to me with name rolls :D

Yes, my digit in the Gauss constant is my favourite single-digit number! What are the chances of that? People assume it's 1/10 but noone has proved it yet.

How about fixing the credits on a brand new video? But joking aside: from idea to filming to upload it took about 30 minutes. And I definitely find it refreshing to have an idea abs execute it so swiftly.

I now officially blame you. Or more specifically: your name.

Sami Reinikainen

I didn't mean to be rude if someone pays to see their name in the credits. I just enjoy different kind of content than lists of names.

To be honest it was because the edit on the main video was already a multi-day haul. We’d had one false-start upload yesterday and decided then to fix some more stuff and try again. If I went back in to fix even more stuff it would have been another day of work and we had to move on to other videos. In contrast: quickly making a bonus video for the second channel was a fun and refreshing option. And I knew no one would really mind. So I did that. I then waited for the second video to finish processing and released it right before the main video. My videos often spawn chains of things which all have to be published at the same time. As a policy I start at the ‘ends’ and work back. Otherwise people might hit a dead end of the links which is frustrating; whereas a sneak preview of bonus content is exciting.

standupmaths

Yep. That is one of the two other mistakes I would have liked to fix. But no video will ever be perfect so I decided to cut my losses. (The other mistake is Matt_2 jump cutting in the kitchen while Future Matt is talking.)

Writing the missing credits on the blackboard and calculating pi from the letters would do..

Don't watch then. Especially don't watch the second channel as well. Patreon isn't like hiring someone. They are free to manage their time however they like when producing content.

Sami Reinikainen

Of course - free to do anything they like - as long as they don't forget to mention anyone...

Having watched the main video, I’m getting strong Mega Time Squad vibes from it (a super low budget indie film: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5758726/), although that got a bit more out of control with crossing timelines! Definitely a fun presentation format. And Future Future Matt fixing the credits in a video to watch before the main video fits right in! Ewen

I’m also left wondering if there is some Fourier Transform equivalent for squares and squircles, ie some combination of squircles that “adds up to” a square, in the way that a square wave is the sum of an infinite number of sine waves.... 🤔 Ewen

BTW, lemniscate comes from λημνίσκος which has the accent on the second syllable, much like how you are pronouncing it.

Late to the party and hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if defining a squircle requires using the harmonic mean for the values of n, then the same should hold for the cirare, so using the arithmetic mean instead leaves us with, at best, a Parker cirare.
