My 33 year old LSE MSc Dissertation on quantum logic was published last month together with a new introduction. Thanks @jalejandrofdezc.bsky.social for encouraging me to revisit this material.

Refreshing optimism from Shankar Balasubramanian in today's King lecture at @clarehallcambridge.bsky.social, both regarding genomics and the use of AI.

Lovely to be back in old Blighty and moreover greeted in traditional British weather style 😊

Extremely tough competition for the greatest Nativity through the ages. I think I'll stick to this rather unknown 1604 masterpiece in surreal realism by El Greco, which anticipates both Picasso and Dalí.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Lovely to be back in my ancient alma mater, #Edinburgh.

John Dupré gives his second Lullius lecture and a wonderful and imposing quote from David Hume lurks in the background.

At which point I could not help wonder if we collectively measure up to the heights of the Scottish Enlightenment.

Nice to have aperols again and to hang out with such an excellent crowd.

2023 was very good to me. A wonderful and productive return to my British roots, in Cambridge. The book that just came out culminates 20 years' work. There were other happy coincidences and events in what is possibly the best year ever - so far.

Let 2024 begin. Happy new year everyone.
