Very happy to see this paper come out from Lucas Martins @d-lucas.bsky.social and Alexandre Laborde. They developed an awesome framework, built with .NET, for developing software to run demanding high-speed behavior and functional imaging experiments.

Excited to share my PhD paper is out! We studied how motion vision is processed beyond the optic lobes to help flies walk straight. It has been a wonderful collaboration with @michaelreiser.bsky.social, @dddavi.bsky.social and many others not in bluesky!

What Is Entropy? A Measure of Just How Little We Really Know. | Quanta Magazine Exactly 200 years ago, a French engineer introduced an idea that would quantify the universe’s inexorable slide into decay. But entropy, as it’s currently understood, is less a fact about the world th...

'The confusion stems in part from the way the term gets tossed and twisted between disciplines (...) But it’s also because truly wrapping one’s head around entropy requires taking some deeply uncomfortable philosophical leaps.'
