About Books

[Retweet of seanmcarroll's words] @seanmcarroll reviews "The Grand Design": "The 'Why?' Questions, Chapter and Multiverse," Wall Street Journal, Books & Ideas (September 11, 2010). —The bottom line: "Our best hope for constructing sensible answers lies with scientists and philosophers working together, not scoring points off one another."

About Mathematics

[Retweet of pickover's words] "100 important mathematical equations. (large version)" How many can we name? —See also Michael Anderson's Web page that uses the photo cited. (Retweeted by fermin771009)

[In reply to tttabata and pickover] Hard to see them on the blackboard, but I did see the law of cosines up there . . . and the quadratic equation.

About Peace and Politics

[Retweet of GeoShore's words via pfanderson] The atomic bomb cake (1946) . . . and the controversy (well detailed). —The latter is a blog post at "Conelrad Adjacent."
