Happy Tau Day, my Hordeling.
Many people know the mathematical concept of pi, which is the radius r of a circle squared. It is usually represented by the number 3.14159 and whole lot more numbers going on into infinity without repeating. It is celebrated every March 14 because 3.14.

We can thank physicist and entrepreneur Michael Hartl for getting more people interested in Tau Day when he published the Tau Manifesto.
