Anniversary dinner or world’s best linear programming tableau?

Just like before, I'm saying it on social media for accountability...

THE MATH ROUTINE COLLABORATIVE IS COMING BACK!!!

Mark your calendars for January 2026!

Last night I had a dream where I was denied tenure and needed to start searching for a job right away. These are going to get more frequent aren’t they?

Zongzi on a plate and cutting board.

Jusgo finally started selling these.

I’m curating an exhibition of Mathematical Art at the Australian Mathematical Society meeting in December. If you’re coming to the meeting and you create art with mathematics, please think about being involved. More information to appear at the conference website.

There’s a Clipse feature, you can find it online already, it’s as good as one would think.

But I’ll tell you if the albums good in the morning.

Hey #mathsky, would it be too nerdy if @bookshop.org branded their Anti-Prime free shipping deal "Composite"? Asking for a friend.

I grew up in Hawaii so like any Hawaiian word.

*waves hands generally at a rich professional network of scholars that I might not otherwise have met*

We’re not dealing with brilliant strategists cleverly laying traps, we’re dealing with impulsive whiners whose advantage is contempt for laws, norms, and morality.

If you missed the talk today you can still check Lurch out at lurch.plus

I was super impressed by the demo we saw, I strongly invite people who teach proofs to undergrads to check it out!!

Unlocking justice shown as #1 in public policy on Amazon

The book—out this spring, and hence based solely on preorder—is <drum roll> #1 in public policy on Amazon WHAT IS HAPPENING. I am glad people are excited about the message and hope you will be too. Preorder link in comments.

Ever wanted to have your undergrads write computer-verified proofs but without having to learn all of Lean? Come check out Lurch!
