I have noticed that Dover Publications included not even one pure math title in their 2024 holiday catalog which I think goes to show that these people are cowards and fair weather friends who don't truly care about us. If anything they are probably ashamed

in fact all geometry is sacred

It's sometimes excruciating to be into math while also having a day job. Like I could be listening to the heartbeat of God right now and instead I'm just. Building a data pipeline to hydrate a dashboard

That thing where you vaguely remember a theorem that you're sure it would be helpful right now, but you can only remember one of the assumptions and the punch line but very hazily and that you maybe read it in a book on analytic theory of polynomials or no was it an applied func analysis book hmm

Love when the blue asters start blooming in Albuquerque

Been reading about the early history of hypertext in Memory Machines by @manjusrii.bsky.social -- the term hypertext has become so popular and tightly associated with HTML that I think most people today aren't very excited by it, and that's really a shame

although i really wish this thing had bookmarking, it's a little less bleak than that other place that is nowadays dominated by blue checked ayn rand big science accounts. like a wasted universe with nothing but photons from hawking radiation
