This is the most remarkable story Ray Bradbury ever shared with me. He told it to me late one night, sitting in his den of antiquities and mementos. Take five minutes to read this. It’s pure magic. #Writing #Living #Creativity #RayBradbury #BookSky

Made the mistake of watching “Call My Agent! The Movie“ on Netflix. I’m going to have to stay up till midnight watching Truffaut’s “La nuit américaine“ just to get it out of my mind.

Excellent. But of course the Telegraph would be against it. Oxford city centre is now incredibly safe and anyone who goes through a bus gate should be fined.

@cantabkitty.bsky.social you might be interested. The Finnish Church in London are having a "Zion Hymn Revival" with hymns from this book: www-h--y-fi.translate.goog/siionit.html Unfortunately on Facebook they have translated it as "Israelite Affairs Committee" which is a VERY different thing!

"No emails over the weekends" policies are dumb. If your teachers are struggling with workload, restricting when they can do their work makes things worse not better.

I think it says more about me than Facebook that it now exclusively shows me AI of women in revealing Star Wars costumes claiming that men refuse to date them because they wander round with a light saber and how if I follow them all my dreams will come true

Because if it did, the line that we can see would say X is equal to plus or minus root 81, not just the positive square root. And in any case they should then have X equals on the final line as well as they are solving an equation

The Maths Bazaar @themathsbazaar.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
But they aren't solving an equation And it's not even really about 1-1 functions It's about the meaning of the square root symbol - it means the positive square root. That's it.
