Program Announcement: I'm Moving
September 1, 2011
I've dropped some hints in the past that my relationship with ScienceBlogs would be...altered. Well, I've decided to leave. Mostly, it had to do with the issue of pseudonymity, although I'm very excited to hang out my own shingle once again. I don't want to rehash the issue of pseudonymity,…
Note to Unions: This Is Not How You Build a Coalition
September 1, 2011
The old saw that 'we hang together or we get hung separately' is a perfect description of how the left has disintegrated into irrelevance. Too often, groups will focus on modest gains for their own narrow constituency, while selling out other allies. Over the long term, each component of the…

Meet the New New Math, Same As the Old New Math? What We Can Learn from Finland
August 31, 2011
Recently, The New York Times published an op-ed calling for curricular changes in K-12 math education: Today, American high schools offer a sequence of algebra, geometry, more algebra, pre-calculus and calculus (or a "reform" version in which these topics are interwoven). This has been codified by…

Puttin' on the Ritz Variation
Continuing from yesterday's post on approximation methods in quantum mechanics, here's another common method worth a close look. It's one of my favorites, because it's a rare technique in which you can just make something completely up from thin air and it will very probably work well nonetheless. Let's say you have a particle floating around in some potential. Maybe it's a perturbed square…
How Big Is Our Galaxy?
"Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space." -Douglas Adams Here inside the Milky Way galaxy, all you need are some dark skies and a decent set of eyes, and you'll be greeted of a spectacular, close-up view of the galaxy you inhabit.

But if you teach an Ape to fish…
What the heck has this world come to? All over the internet, this picture of an Orangutan trying to fish with a stick has been shown: But what's the story behind this? Is this evidence that humans are not unique among the Great Apes as tool-users? Not quite. According to the Daily Mail, this is an orangutan that had extensive exposure to humans; this jungle setting is actually where they…
