The third law of meetings: when having a meeting in a room with windows at ground level, a person with a leaf blower or lawn mower will suddenly have to do a lot of work just outside your window. -

The lunar regolith has rarely looked so lovely as it does tonight, owing to the moon being at perogee. To date, this gem in the heavens is the farthest any human has ever been from Earth. And it is only a quarter of million miles away. That is nothing to the cosmos. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/937485980961042433/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/44607 -

It's a "super moon" tonight, which means the moon is as close to Earth as it can get in it's **slightly** elliptical orbit. Whatever. Go outside. Look up. Be filled with wonder. The moon is always pretty. Tonight, it's just a little bit closer in it's dance with us. https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/937470846628704258/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/44603 -

I've updated my look at the Senate version of the tax code bill thanks to a reader who got me to the actual final text of the Senate bill. In fact, Senate bill doesn't contain the "Grad Tax". Now we wait for reconciliation to see what happens. http://steve.cooleysekula.net/blog/2017/12/02/what-now-for-u-s-graduate-stem-education/ -
