Haha, this from the New Yorker is getting passed around the math dork community. I did a comic about this kind of thought a few years ago: www.smbc-comics.com/comic/commut...

New paper by me and @benjaminpope.bsky.social! How well can we map a star using optical interferometry?
This is just a submitted preprint at the moment--comments and questions welcome! (1/N)

have you seen the new python package? it's on pypi. you can literally install it with pip. set up a venv. grab it with poetry. you just use rye. run it with pipx. you can install it with uv. install uv right now. go to uv. dive into uv. you can uv it. it's on uv. uv has it for you. uv has it for you

I actually kind of want to hear from people who dislike mathfiction.
What stops you from engaging with a story with math in it? What would draw you to trying one out?

But it will have math— that’s not going away in my stories ever. I personally think mathematical beauty is worth studying in stories, just like love, or friendship, or ambition, or cosmic awe, or death, or literally any other source of inspiration for literature.

the bay bridge has a bike lane but only halfway across, so if you wanted to bike from the East Bay to SF for the 4th of July fireworks you'd have to bike all the way north to Point Richmond, across to Marin, and down across the Golden Gate Bridge. But that'd be ridiculous right
