As of the day this post was created (June 28, 2017), today is Tau Day! This is like Pi Day, except this day celebrates the virtues of the true circle constant, tau (= 2pi).
Read The Tau Manifesto here (http://tauday.com).
Check out some more information here (http://sites.google.com/site/taubeforeitwascool/).
The following gif should give a geometric explanation of the number itself:

Please, tell me your opinion on the tau vs pi debate below!
Should we use tau? Should we stick with pi? Should eta (http://tiny.cc/tnh3ly) have a say in the matter?
Regardless, a happy Tau Day to all! I'll be eating full circle-shaped foods today, instead of only half circles.
Technically you left this too late as it is now Thursday the 29th (GMT, which as we all know is the 'official' time)
