Caught an incredible show by Johnny Blue Skies (the jam band version of Sturgill Simpson). Definitely check them out if you can! I went with my father in law Alan who is a longtime deadhead and retired infectious disease professor

I recommend reading the article, especially for an entertaining detour into skateboarding. What do you think?

He also argues that LLMs tend to find ideas/results within the metaphorical "convex hull" of existing ideas. I think many times this is true

Reading this piece. I think this point is particularly important in math because, unfortunately, standards of exposition are really too low. How many seminars have you attended and understood very little? terrytao.wordpress.com/2026/09/13/d...

Here, we make the case that such noise actually can just help make neurons robust, and the correlations help especially when the image modifications are large

Here we look at how correlated, noisy responses can confer robustness to perturbations (adversarial attacks, blurs, and other transformations). The cartoon here shows how noise structure aligned with perturbations can help boost a classifier margin

This was a good read, thanks @turrigiano.bsky.social for the tip! My wife was kind of turned off by all the Christian themes but I liked the pagan vs undertones

Great read, last I checked the P. cyanescens patches around the UW campus were still going strong.

Great paper! Simple and to the point. A short mathematical description of the RNN model would be helpful. Also, showing that the random resevoir also works would help strengthen it. I get the feeling you already tried it just didn't write it...

Diisopropyltryptamine produced auditory hallucinations, strange since it's similar to other classical psychedelics in the tryptamine family, including psilocybin. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DiPT

Subtle little typos in Google's AI overview for the search "approximation of sum by integral" found in office hours yesterday. I was leading the student through the derivation then we went to check online, and I found the AI answer was wrong.

Messing around with number theory. Learning a lot, the problems feel very hard.

We had a nice CS & Behavioral Neurosci student workshop yesterday given by @alleninstitute.org scientists and @wwu.edu alums! Thanks to @sejdevries.bsky.social and Su-Yee and Feng for organizing
