Love it when papers have references from the 60s. (The Toom paper was actually from 1963 but it was in Russian.)

Recently when I talk to colleagues they seem more interested in my ultrarunning than my research. Maybe this is says something about my research...
In any case, I've decided to resume ultra blogging, this time on Substack. Like and subscribe!

In 1735 the composer JS Bach even wrote a piece of music called the Coffee Cantata. It included these lines:
Oh! How sweet coffee does taste,
Better than a thousand kisses,
Coffee, coffee, I've got to have it,
And if someone wants to perk me up,
Oh, just give me a cup of coffee!

Grandpa? Why do we celebrate the holiday?
Sit on my lap son & let grandpa tell you the story of this day
You see, twitter only had enough engineers remaining to keep it running for one more night, but it miraculously kept working for eight nights
We burn a Tesla in remembrance
