Many people don't know this but arXiv is maintained and operated by @cornelltech.bsky.social (that does NOT mean you can send me complaints or feature requests!)
Everyone in the community should be excited that arXiv got $7M to upgrade from Schmidt Sciences, NASA

There's an enormous cat who lives a few streets down. She somehow figured out a way to unlatch and open the screen door leading into our bedroom. Every night she breaks into our room, curls up on my chest and falls asleep. I've been adopted by a real-life Miyazaki character.

What changes when humans change: individuals with genes, or groups with culture?
In this month's Q&A, I talk with @twaring.bsky.social about his argument that humans are going through an evolutionary transition: groups are the new individual, and culture is the new genome. 🧪

This, and one more good reason: publishing is arguably the easiest way to demonstrate your command of programming to people outside academia.
This slide by @mubdi.bsky.social at #adass2025 should be on ever astronomer's wall. Software is a central part of science and should be published accordingly!

Канадски вторник. Слънцето залезе в четири и малко, навън праска яко, на телевизора върви някакъв американски канал, компилация на забивки на MJ. Аз съм се сгушил в лаптопа си и правя най-безмозъчната работа в докторантурата: кодене на научни графики... Бъдете здрави.

Обнадеждаваща новина за българската астрономия, макар че е рано за оптимизъм. Проблемът досега по-скоро беше не, че влизат малко, а че излизат малко.
За първи път от 10 години: местата за физици в Софийския университет са заети
Ръст има в инженерните и техническите специалности, каза образователният министър.

Вчера правих беседа по работата си в университет на другия край на Монреал. Въртях 30 минути на 4-5 градуса, дъждът ме окъпа като полска мишка. Още не са ми изсъхнали ботушите, а навън праска още по-силно от вчера.. Бъдете здрави.
