Oddly enougb I'm giving a talk in the morning about stuff that is 10 years old, so I watched the last one I gave on the same subject and wow I'm out of practice compared to back then. 🫣 It's good. Also a surprising amount of views for a math talk. youtu.be/keqWXeYo5sg?...

I remade the #Gameboy Camera experience for android because I wanted more features, like video, bitcrushed audio, the ability to share. I really like shaders, so this project was pretty straightforward. And now that it's done, I can't procrastinate from what I'm supposed to be working on. Unless...

We need some VJ software for an event and nothing handled sound-reactive shaders exactly the way we wanted so this legend is writing one from scratch. In Rust. 😁

This is how it started in the Transnistria region of Moldova in 1989 a year before Russia's Transnistrian War broke out; in the Abkhazia and North Ossetia regions of Georgia in 1989 three years before the Russian invasion; in the Donbas region of Ukraine in 2014 months before the Russian invasion.

The political press very clearly understands “truth” as a social agreement, a compromise position between everyone important enough to have an opinion. It did not reflect on how this would allow dedicated liars to go all-in on lies again and again and dramatically shift the position.

I'm so happy that the Knight of the Seven Kingdoms seems to be exactly what it should be, a class struggle story with all the dimensions and subtext of the novellas. 🖤 Also not to harp on it, but it may be the first time any of the ASoIaF shows had two working class characters talk to each other. 🫣

I'm reading Project Hail Mary and it's the best sci fi I've read in a loooong time. Also really wholesome and uplifting. I highly recommend it to counteract all that burning world anxiety.

Can't wait to see how the current government tries to weasel out of this ruling and the next one simply ignores it or declares it invalid for some made-up reason. Otherwise, a landmark ruling for a lot of people who can afford the trip.

“The government is allowed to post real death threats on social media but you’re not allowed to post sarcastic death threats on social media” is actually a pretty apt distillation of power and violence

That's fair. I think that also plays into the happy ending problem. We are at a moment where we fight for damage control, not a happy ending. If you find that to be enough of a motivation for you (I do too) then that's good. That's not everyone though.

Anger does motivate people better than hope. Related, I think our cultural tendency to expect/promise each other a happy ending is holding us back.

It tends to be a lot of manipulating equations for the sake of it, yeah. Not as bad as in some other branches.

It's not "finding out what's wrong" if we already know that it is wrong, and why, and the only reason it gets published is that reviewers didn't have the stomach to properly review your 60 pages of PDE violence.

Eva Infeld @evainfeld.bsky.social · 15/09/2025
Nah. A lot of this research can't stand on its own as a contribution to mathematics *or* physics and it doesn't, in fact, help someone else make an elegant model. There are entire branches of it, particularly in the quantum gravity genre, that are less than useless.

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class. This is Kirk's legacy. You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

Hold up. The phenomenon of entire research groups going down rabbit holes of arbitrarily chosen parameters and cranking out papers about that *is* an industry of useless papers. It's arguing how many angels dance on the tip of a pin, but in a language of differential equations.

I posted a #djmix of sexy #industrial songs because 1. it's fun and 2. I want to prove that you can have proper transitions, even though the genre makes it difficult and most people mixing industrial don't. Enjoy. It's NSFW obviously, because of the theme. 🖤 www.mixcloud.com/emotionalsup...
