Blast this out to every PTA in America

I'm heart broken. The national parks are probably the most magical thing about the USA. And Yosemite is special all by itself.

The US government has been turned over to a group of extraordinarily ignorant people, and they are working to destroy science in this country. Cutting over half the NSF budget would save < 0.1% of the federal budget, but do incalculable harm. Simply heartbreaking. arstechnica.com/science/2025...

RED ALERT! There's a silent coup underway now. Musk & his subs have hacked into the payment systems at Depts of Health/Human Servcs, Treasury, Labor, Ctrs for Disease Control/Preventn, & Veterans Affairs. They now have access to our SocSec#'s, confidential bank & medical info, etc. READ! 📰

And there it is: Doors are open for kleptocracy in America

The disemboweling of a government agency *created by Congressional statute* by a private citizen is completely shocking

Oh myyy, they are the very letter of it!

The plane-crash president.

AI's computational efficiency is advancing faster than expected, proving yet again that the cheapest energy is the energy we don't use. These breakthroughs, along with leadership in clean energy and battery tech, are coming from China—not the US, where progress is being delayed. More below.

Taj Mahal and Itmad-ud-Daula with @matthewsutter.bsky.social

So happy to be in India again after 5 years with my husband @matthewsutter.bsky.social even if it is just for 6 more days!

Remember that the increase of water holding capacity of our atmosphere is not linear: it increases exponentially with temperature. Physics 101: Clausius-Clapeyron law. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clausiu...

Ugh. This is probably illegal, but there's going to be so much of it I'm not sure it can be stamped out. After listening for sixty seconds I am mostly creeped out by the weird inappropriate laughter.

This week’s hydra: how do you know when to move on from projects that never seem to find a conclusion?

This year I am thankful for my family, for my health, and for the opportunity to do math every day. I’m starting to appreciate, more and more, that I cannot take these for granted. Happy Thanksgiving!

Great algebra seminar from Satyan Devadoss on unfolding regular polytopes. The 24-cell is a neat object en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/24-cell

Elements of vector spaces are called vectors. It follows that elements of Hilbert spaces are called Hilberts.

I am in a Deep South airport and the store sells what I can only describe as Christian children’s marine biology propaganda…?

down with X! hello bluesky! where’s my math family?
