I wish cool research labs hired vloggers to make mini-docs to go along with their published papers. I wanna binge watch dramatic storytelling behind incredible science instead of just illegally reading it via scihub.
Wow @overleaf I applaud your commitment to security, but this is unbelievable
This is the most detailed look at individual atoms ever captured bit.ly/3uTjF79
Surprised to see Ramón y Cajal argue in 1897 that more researchers should pursue science in a home laboratory while earning primary income through some profession, rather than working in a governmental / university lab. I wonder how unusual these views were at the time.
Wikipedia is a priceless academic resource, you just have to know how to use it. You can't believe a claim just because it appears on a Wikipedia page, but it's a great way to find educational resources, references, and connections to related ideas.
The secret heart of academia is... Wikipedia. In an experiment, this paper found that a single quality Wikipedia article written by chemistry experts influenced the content of 250 published peer-reviewed academic papers! Articles referenced in Wikipedia also become more cited.
The paradoxical thing I’m learning about grad school and anxiety is that the slower I try to work, the more I get done.
I’m realizing this could be an academia problem instead of just a grad school problem which is also a huge bummer.
I feel like grad school has made me a worse friend (to others & myself) because I’m always tired or stressed, I’ve tied up so much of my self worth in the work, and I’m dropping hobbies that made me interesting. Sorry to be a downer but it’s got me down right now.
i can try do a youtube video, sure, it can't go that badly... 😳
Oh I also made this a while ago to show how big Saturn's rings are. In this version I use the average Earth-Moon distance and put both Jupiter and Saturn on their side. Fun fact: Saturn's rings have a mass just 1/5000th that of our Moon, but their surface area is huge
I’m planning to open-source @withorbit soon—ideally it’s eventually a protocol, not a centralized service! (Once we figure out what “it” is…) I’m trying to balance benefit to the commons with retaining some privilege/flexibility. Tell me why this licensing plan is a bad idea?
Think you know curves? Despite being only one-dimensional, these creatures have surprisingly rich and beautiful structure. This lecture is a 1st intro to curves, including the fundamental theorem & Whitney-Graustein + applications to geometry processing! youtube.com/watch?v=seLcPB…
@MsAnnaDietrich This is SOOO awesome. Not only did you create a safe space for this student to grow into who they are, but you're shattering the bigotry & biases that many of your students were unknowingly being conditioned to have, advancing equality & inclusion with the next generation. Bravo!

Second person in a day with an email auto-reply that essentially says: yeah, I just don't do email anymore...find me on some messaging app if you know me, and otherwise, well....sorry. Email is becoming the new phone call: something only for spammers or very specific uses.
Hey there! Try something real quick: pause your scrolling, step outside, pick a bird, watch it for 30 seconds. You will be better! Birds make us better.
It's a nice enough point of view, and a welcome antidote to the most naive forms of reductionism. But somehow it seemed unsatisfying. And I think what I was under-emphasized (even though well known) was this type of radical independence from the underlying laws.
