Come and join us! We have cake (at a responsible frequency). You also get to work with me. Which I hope isn't excessively off-putting!

I'll admit I'm a little intrigued as to how Meta AI intends to convert a photo of my thesis into a tarot card. But not intrigued enough to find out...

One list I'm not unhappy to be on.

I think you'll find he was in fact blown towards, and not out.

So giving everyone $5000 collected from general taxation, and... Redistributed...? I didn't see socialism being the big pivot Trump would make for the midterms.

We were invited to put this together by Nature Astronomy, and we're hoping to see it in print later in the autumn all going well!

I'd like to think of this paper as a celebration of just how far we've come in so little time as a field. It was fun to put this together as well as trying to find some novel ways to put this together visually.
