@brunozumbo.bsky.social’s new chapter has me thinking about math concepts that I have not checked in 15 yrs (my undergrad was in math and engineering ). I am enjoying this thoroughly. I forgot almost everything (don’t know I could do a proper integral) but what a joy to read. Thanks, Bruno!

Not exactly an academic post—but if you’re a #music lover, keep reading. Conferences are incredible opportunities for learning, networking, and sharing our work with colleagues. But they can also be a chance to pause, recharge, and enjoy the cultural life of the places that host us.

Violence is always unacceptable, and threats of violence have no place in public discourse. Our thoughts are with Charlie Kirk and his family.

I'm sick after seeing the video of Charlie Kirk being shot. Violence against civilians is never okay. Political violence — no matter who is hurt — will always beget worse political violence. And it has no place in our country.

Here’s what just happened: Trump sent a peace deal to Hamas, Hamas met to discuss it in Doha, where the U.S. is mediating talks and has a base,and Israel bombed them, presumably with US support.

If not morally shocked, are you not at least insulted? Israel bombs a hospital. Kills several people, including a journalist. Rescuers & journalists rush to the scene. And then Israel bombs them. On live TV. And then Israel tells you they never target civilians, and were just trying to hit a camera.

The beauty of #fiction is not just the freedom to say or read things that ring true and may be controversial, but also the elegance with which some people articulate those things that we all feel or sense but can’t quite put into words. This is from #Orbital - a beautifully written novel.
