I have two wolves inside me—a mathematician and an artist—and I feed them equally well.
All of my art is made without AI. I find generative AI repulsive. I have no desire to use it, nor do I wish to collaborate with anyone who uses it.

I had a really nice couple of days at Oberlin College hanging out with @baabbbaash.bsky.social, his colleagues, and students! While walking around campus, I saw this unusual window. Assuming it is the unit circle, what's the equation of the ellipse?

For nearly 80 years, an algorithm called the simplex method has been one of the most widely used tools for when a logistical decision needs to be made under complex constraints. A new update makes it faster than ever. www.quantamagazine.org/researchers-...

An open knight's tour of a 128x128 chessboard. The knight starts in the lower left corner, finishes near the lower right corner, and visits each of the sixteen 32x32 regions in the same order that they'd be visited by a second-stage Hilbert curve. #mathart

Not receiving a salary raise in an era of rampant inflation is essentially a pay cut. But so is the laying off of support staff whose jobs faculty are expected to absorb.
Doing tech support, extra advising, admin assistant duties, etc. = less time for the work of being a teacher / faculty member.

This is how you interview people from the Trump admin; past , present, and future. Full stop.
So well done.

Me: "So which country should @aoc.bsky.social go back to?"
Mick Mulvaney: "She's an American citizen."
Me: "So why did Trump tell her to go back to her country?"
I asked former Trump WH chief of staff Mulvaney if he ever challenged his then boss on his racist tweets.
