And the (incredible) Corlette-Simpson correspondence (that is, non-Abelian Hodge theory)! twitter.com/agolian/status…

Is there a new one?

Yeah, this is definitely not surprising :).

One cool consequence of this is that #puzzlescript is Turing-complete! twitter.com/littmath/statu…

This was mostly an excuse for me to learn #puzzlescript -- which was a lot of fun!

I made a little toy using @puzzlescript that lets you do so: daniellitt.itch.io/rule-30

Just rotate those direct sums 45 degrees — nobody will notice... pic.twitter.com/HhY8HnY7dg

This gives me the shakes -- these aren't morphisms in the category of vector spaces!

Presumably e^{ijk} means e_i\wedge e_j\wedge e_k.

Really great! (And really hard!)

I made a (very challenging) puzzle game, Bottom Feeder! It's about snakes eating pellets with their, uh, tails. zacharyabel.itch.io/bottomfeeder pic.twitter.com/F8c31QGPfP

Ah right! Missed this crucial fact :)

No, suppose they don’t find their name and they finish their cycle in 10 steps. Your strategy just has them continue looping around the cycle 5 times!

Suppose a prisoner finishes their cycle after less than 50 boxes. Can’t one evidently improve the strategy by having them start on the next cycle? It seems to me that this strategy is obviously not optimal!

The distinction you draw between machinery and truth is interesting — it suggests to me that the argument here derives from a real philosophical difference, which might be worth making explicit.

Even in this trivial case, it’s been my experience that this kind of ambiguity can confuse students.

Your choice is to disambiguate “only when it matters,” which requires you to anticipate your audience in a way which may not be possible, or to just get in the habit of disambiguating in general, which has the side benefit of improving the clarity of your writing imo.
