Why Fascists Hate Critical Thinking
A new book, “Why Fascists Fear Teachers,” reveals why Trump and the far right are demeaning teachers, slashing school funding, and rewriting history.

A lot of MAGA anger is performative and dictated to them by their leaders.
Demonstrating that ours isn't is one of the more powerful things we can do right now.

"According to Israel's national broadcaster Kan, only 60 per cent of soldiers are now showing up for reserve duty — roughly half of the 120 per cent recorded in the early days of the war."

Visualization of curvature on curve and surface by tangential angle parametrization
We propose a unified method to visualize curvature on planar curves and surfaces of revolution using the tangential angle parameter. For plane curves, placing markers at equal increments of the tangential angle reveals local bending features and naturally highlights inflection points and vertices. This approach extends to surfaces of revolution, where curvature lines drawn at equal tangential angle steps reflect principal curvature variations and naturally expose ridge and parabolic curves. Our…

Restricted tangent bundle of rational curves on projective hypersurfaces
We determine all triples $(e,d,n)$ for which a general degree $d$ hypersurface $X\subset \mathbb{P}^n$ contains a degree $e$ rational curve $C$ with balanced restricted tangent bundle $T_X|_C$. In addition, we show how to compute explicit examples of hypersurfaces with balanced $T_X|_C$ when $C$ is a rational normal curve.
