Our new article about a simple model of driven model that can be solved. It reproduces the behavior of magnetic domain walls surprisingly well

Proud of our new PRL article out about swarmalators: @DynamicsSIAM @stevenstrogatz @cxdig @ComplexExplorer @CSLab_UPF

Before mathematicians used modern symbolic algebra, they would reason geometrically. For instance, these figures show the equation (𝑎 + 𝑏)² = 𝑎² + 2𝑎𝑏 + 𝑏². quantamagazine.org/the-scand…

A couple of years ago I spoke to a member of the panel that awarded me my first research grant on quantum computers (1985). He said it was a close-run thing. I asked if I'd have got it under today's criteria. He said: no chance; basically I could tick none of the boxes.

2016: @YCombinator invested $20k (Fellowship) into my new startup.
New bank acc; got debit card with exp. 12/21.
I remember thinking, "12/21… I wonder will the company survive until then".
Today: that card expires and one client wired me ~$20k. @AwesoundApp alive and well 💪🚀

A simple graphic that should be widely used. #COVIDisairborne It also illustrates that refusal to wear a mask is not macho or libertarian, it is selfish.

The word "swarmalators" is first coined by @stevenstrogatz in their amazing paper tinyurl.com/ygq6b6kv. It refers to oscillators whose phase dynamics and spatial dynamics are coupled.

Going to be HELL TO PAY at the Capitol Police for opening these gates and letting Trump's treason mob of Republicans onto the steps of the building.
Incredible reporting @marcusdipaola.

"Sometimes as an antidote
To fear of death,
I eat the stars.
Those nights, lying on my back,
I suck them from the quenching dark
Til they are all, all inside me,
Pepper hot and sharp."

Next time a friend tells you that #AI+#robotics are overhyped and progressing very slowly, have 'em watch this: youtube.com/watch?v=fn3KWM1k…
