Profile
Dave Bacon is a theoretical ski bum who is also a pseudo professor. His research is on quantum computing, his scientific passions extend to everything in physics, mathematics, computer science and beyond, and his personal pleasures include making wine, playing poker, skiing, camping, and daydreaming (although not all of those at the same time.)
Nothing he says on this blog should be construed as having anything to do with his employer or his dog.

Sad news for all. I hope he leaves soon the hospital. http://twitter.com/ESS_BILBAO

Harder for him to fight off even routine infections. The magical spells that have kept him alive all these decades are under assault by eldritch entities wielding the Dark Arts. Hawking is the greatest Magician of the age, you know, quite properly in the footsteps of the great Alchemist and 1st Lucasian Chair Sir Isaac Newton.
