Dmitri (who might be @tymoczko.bsky.social) is the author of a couple of books, "A Geometry of Music" and "Tonality: A User's Manual." His web site is full of apps and other goodies. dmitri.mycpanel.princeton.edu/index.html

Hey astrophysicists, a presence (absence) of KH billows in some astrophysical shear flow doesn't always imply a lower (upper) bound on the local magnetic field strength! See arxiv.org/abs/2510.031...

A great write up of work we did on understanding marine heatwaves in the Chesapeake Bay! This work (a bit outside what I normally study) grew out of a senior capstone project by Skylar Lama, then led by Rachel Wegener for her MS. Super fun to think about such important local issues.

"equality" and "inequality" lmao, goodbye mathematics and physics departments in the US words referenced from gizmodo.com/the-list-of-...

What do you think about using the ocean to remove atmospheric CO₂? What about mangroves? Are biological or geochemical methods better? These are FAQs that I get, and they're answered in this piece that I wrote with @bopplaurent.bsky.social. Please take a look.

I first read "cut overhead by 15%" and I'm like hmm that's bad. It's "cut overhead TO 15%"...🫨
