not sure why it's suggesting those... the syntax for domain restrictions in Desmos is { condition }, e.g.: www.desmos.com/calculator/j...

Fun fact: Desmos was _not_ bought by Amplify! We sold our curriculum business to Amplify, but Desmos Studio PBC (which runs the calculators) is separate. See more here: blog.desmos.com/articles/des...

Confirmed.

We recently added complex number support! help.desmos.com/hc/en-us/art...

Got it. As far as I know, they haven’t changed permissions. Only some lessons were available for free before too, even when it was part of Desmos

I don’t think this is true? First off, everything at Desmos.com (all calculators) is part of Desmos Studio and unaffiliated with amplify, and still free to use. Secondly, as far as I know the free lessons at amplify are still free. Can you say more of what you mean?

Going forward, hopefully this'll also be clearer. For example, any social media account branded something Desmos (e.g. here -- @desmos.com, www.tiktok.com/@desmosstudio) means Desmos Studio.

There were some communities that span both -- e.g. twitter (RIP), facebook, fellows. The plan we arrived at was that the ones that felt more Activity Builder/Curriculum focused (Desmos Educators FB group, Desmos Fellows) would be managed by Amplify, with Desmos Studio as welcome guests

Our intent 3 years ago was that "Desmos Classroom" would be teacher.desmos.com (now classroom.amplify.com) and student.desmos.com (now student.amplify.com), and Desmos Studio PBC would be everything on www.desmos.com (all of the calculator tools, for example)

Carl -- so, so sorry here. If it's helpful, I don't believe the line has been shifting, and if anything Amplify's rebrand from Desmos Classroom to Amplify Classroom hopefully helps make the existing line a lot more clear.

🤣 to "tech brother." love that. But let the record show I'm not even the most selfless human in this Bluesky thread. Also that's a delightful Loki pic. Feel better!

Agreed! I sure hope that our calculators are never used to undermine either teachers or the learning process. Goal has always been to replace a useful but expensive and outdated tool (graphing calculators) with a free, more intuitive, more accessible alternative.

Favor -- could you share more about the "tricks" that feel problematic? We'd love for Desmos to support critical thinking instead of subverting it, and counterexamples are really helpful in making design choices.

fun! count me in -- email me at eli[at]desmos.com?

here's a deterministic one that I also love (also uses recursion): www.desmos.com/geometry/kkq...

we've offered many times 😅. It's open source (Mathquill -- our branch with all of our accessibility work is here: github.com/desmosinc/ma...), but I think it's not quite a big enough pain point for them to be worth making it work with their architecture.

Yeah, it's one of my faves :)

Here it is with a little extra interactivity: www.desmos.com/geometry/x26...
