In the 1967 film Doctor Doolittle Rex Harrison ended the Oscar-winning song 'Talk to the Animals' with the verse:If we could talk to the animals, learn their languagesThink of all the things we could discussIf we could walk with the animals, talk with the animals,Grunt and squeak and squawk with the animals,And they could squeak and squawk and speak and talk to us.I talk to our dogs, but there's little …

So there I was, experimenting with HTML password inputs and Web Components. I'm not sure why the idea even came up but it quickly snowballed into a curious expedition. The result from the journey was a set of custom elements that provide extra functionality and information about the text being typed into a password input field. I shared my CodePen demo in a Mastodon post and soon after decided to …

We have, frankly, an embarrassment of riches when it comes to Mexican food in the Chicago area. There are of course cities in the US with better and broader Mexican options. There’s Los Angeles, of course, undisputed as the top spot for Mexican street food in the US–as my friend Titus has claimed repeatedly, “LA is bar none the best city for tacos in the States.” There are also cities …

“One person’s craziness is another person’s reality” once said director Tim Burton.

This October, we have the chance to explore the psyche of this artistic powerhouse in a major exhibition opening in London: The World of Tim Burton. To celebrate his exceptional career, …

Here’s a quick round-up of new music this week! The Headline Track: Sunday (1994) – “Blossom” Sunday (1994) has done it again with another perfect track in the form of “Blossom.” The band masterfully balances introspection with euphoria, and dark humour. Lines like “I’m not in possession of a Smith & Wesson / Or I’d decorate the ceiling / The Sistine of my feelings” strike a brilliant balance between wit …

Ship Statinfasst We’re embarking on a leisurely cruise through the highlights of Statistical Inference as Severe Testing [SIST]: How to Get Beyond the Statistics Wars (CUP 2018) this fall (Oct-Jan), following the 5 seminars I led for a 2020 London School of Economics (LSE) Graduate Research Seminar. It was run entirely online due to Covid (as were the workshops that followed). In this new, relaxed (self-paced) journey, excursions that had …

In 1962, V. A. Antonov did some remarkable simulations showing that in Newtonian mechanics, gravitating systems can violate the usual rules of thermodynamics. Instead of reaching equilibrium they can get hotter and hotter! Suppose you put a lot of stars in a large sphere, and suppose (unrealistically) that they bounce elastically off the walls of this sphere. In fact suppose they’re point masses, so they never collide, and interact only …
