Yeah, Wildberger is good also.

My experience is those that use the blackboards are good, while those who just flip through pre prepared slideshows are not as good.

Yes Wildberger is pretty good, I think maybe he's underappreciated.

Blennerhasset sucks though

tommykins, no... it means he's good. It doesn't mean I'm bad.

And ML, yes. I felt really bad afterward because I was whispering to myself: "WHAT!? THAT TOOK ME SO LONG AND HE DID IT IN FOUR LINES <_<"

Show that:

(x+y)^2 >= 4xy

Hence show: 1/x^2 + 1/y^2 >= 4/(x^2 + y^2).

Note the two or so hours I spent on the question was from 10pm at night. Thus, I was not at top physical condition.
