(1/6) 🎸🚀 Just before the year end, I am beaming up a new working paper: “Reputation and Disclosure in Dynamic Networks”. The Iron Maiden riff: when the clock is ON, silence talks. When it’s OFF, silence is… just silence. (Yeah, that matters.) And yeah: the math headbangs too!

On this day, a child was born who left an indelible mark on human history, transforming our understanding of the world. Famous for his long hair, he unraveled the mysteries of the heavens and brought light to the world.

Happy Birthday, Sir Isaac Newton.

One criticism of mathematicians is that they always seem to have an answer for everything. Nothing is beyond their reach.

Absolutely right. Take the Christmas menu for example. @joshuabull.bsky.social is your waiter.

One of many Cambridge street watercolours I did 30-40 years ago. Working on the spot uniquely preserves memories and feelings. The shop signs at that time in Green St were extravagantly beautiful and the passers by were sketched in quickly. Still have this one.
