This week’s hangout with Rhett Allain, in which we talk about how we got into physics, how we find stuff to read, what we enjoyed on physics blogs this week, what we do and don’t like about Twitter, and the revenge of the Sith.
The specific blog posts we mentioned:
Frank Noschese’s analysis of gravity in Flappy Birds
Ethan Siegel on Hawking and black holes
Bee at Backreaction on what Hawking really said
Timothy Burke on “administrative bloat” and faculty control
Dr. SkySkull on infinite series
Physics Buzz apologizing for starting the infinite series thing
Matthew Francis on polarization in quantum physics
Tune in next week, when we’ll likely talk about the process of blogging, and maybe some highlights-of-the-week stuff again, because Jennifer Ouellette is on vacation…
