Oof. It's going to be an interesting day in my office. This office is too cold. This office is too hot. This office is never just right. If I had a lab to escape to, I would be working there today. But I do not. :-( I am really glad I installed this USB thermometer. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1121027386819141633/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/57085 -

.@filmprofmark will host another MCU watch event tonight @MoMacRC, featuring "Black Panther". In addition, he will screen the end-of-#PHYS1303 video my TAs and I whipped up. I will be there to take scorn + chat about my course, but to be honest: the video says it all! :-) https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1120335387036147712/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/57019 -

My #PHYS1303 students suggested last lecture topics, then rank-voted them. The result? They are collectively most interested in black holes and the ultimate fate of the cosmos. My last lecture of the semester will be entitled: "Lives of Stars, Death of a Universe" https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1120332420400787456/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/57016 -

The AVERAGE temperature in my work office is about right, but the INSTANTANEOUS temperature is quite a different story. However, I infer an "RC Circuit"-like phenomenon is behind all this. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1120015325976723456/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/56999 -

I have, in small scraps of time over the past 4 months, started a small project called the FOSC39 Project to monitor my work office in various ways. Temperature is the first way. What an interesting 48 hours since I started monitoring. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1119587532289781763/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/56970 -

Finished assembling and editing the draft of a little video project my "Assistants of T.E.A.C.H.I.N.G." strongly encouraged as a coda on our semester of #PHYS1303. Shout out @filmprofmark for his 5-min. "How not to suck" film-making lesson, and for hosting its "screening"! -

From ehtelescope http://status.hackerposse.com/url/16701 on Twitter: Scientists have obtained the first image of a black hole, using Event Horizon Telescope observations of the center of the galaxy M87. The image shows a bright ring formed as light bends in the intense gravity around a black hole that is 6.5 billion times more massive than the Sun http://status.hackerposs… -

Had some fun today with a great group of people, who also happen to be or have been teaching assistants for my introductory physics course. We are in the endgame now. @ Dallas, Texas https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv8GhMSAdwb/?utm_source=ig_twitter_share
