New video! Memorable for its delightfully absurd name, the Hairy Ball Theorem is extremely beautiful and has some surprising applications.

I wrote a piece in defense of our warming planet for Climate Week. Some people, clearly without having read the article, are contorting themselves to find climate-change denial there. Oh the irony. I invest a lot of time and energy in support of climate scientists fighting the good fight. The piece isn't directly about climate change per se, but is rather a meditation on a transcendent, universal law of physics that connects us, a warming planet, and the universe. "To be alive is to radiate according to a universal law." Written with love. I hope you'll like it. https://t.co/kYKnPgJMwF

Even in a 10,000+ word story like this one, some details get left out. https://t.co/GA0v4kqHOh

Bitcoin blows minds for many reasons.

Computer scientists say Satoshi solving the Byzantine Generals problem blew their minds.

Economists might be mystified by an asset that goes up in price without producers increasing production to increase supply.

Oil drillers say finding an alternative to flaring excess gas that's cleaner and more profitable was mind blowing.

Human rights advocates say being able to own an asset which cannot be confiscated in a corrupt country, allowing people to grow wealth and escape tyranny was mind blowing.

Power plant operators will say the load balancing capability of mining is mind blowing.

Merchants or users of remittance services will say the fact that BTC lowers friction and fees is mind blowing.

Some might say Bitcoin encouraging saving and long term thinking is mind blowing.

If Bitcoin hasn't blown your mind, you just haven't viewed it through the right lens yet.

New: The conditions for Tigran Gambaryan, the U.S. Binance staffer detained by Nigerian authorities, have deteriorated after his colleague escaped last week, including being moved to a detention facility that his spokesperson described as a "cell."

Israel-linked hacker group Predatory Sparrow has carried out some of the most aggressive hacking of civilian targets ever. They also claim to limit their cyberattacks' harm. I dug into the recent history of this brazen, contradictory player in cyberwar.

My book TRACERS IN THE DARK is out in paperback next week. After a year and thousands of Goodreads ratings, it has an average of 4.52 stars. That's the reader approval realm of like, Harry Potter and Calvin & Hobbes. Odds are you will like it!

SCOOP: (it’s an ice cream story)

Kytch, the startup that hacked McDonald’s ice cream machines to make them break less, says it found a “smoking gun” email in which the CEO of the machines’ vendor (allegedly) suggested a plan to kill their business.

Recently finished TRACERS IN THE DARK by @a_greenberg. Well written, extensively researched, and thought provoking true crime. I highly recommend it. There's also an Easter egg on the cover 🧐
