On this website, you'll find posts about topics in mathematics, computer science, philosophy, language, psychology, and other areas that I've found interesting, as well some comics and original creative works. If you like my blog and want to support it, help me buy a book!

If you want, you can check out my activity on Math Stackexchange and Github as well.

This blog has two main purposes:

To clearly explain complex ideas that are interesting and/or important (in an entertaining way). These blog posts avoid obscure notation and terminology, which can be a discouraging barrier to entry for people interested in academic subjects.
To improve my own comprehension of concepts that interest me. Forcing myself to lay out my thoughts in detail is a good way to practice communication and teaching skills, as well as uncover mistakes or weaknesses in my understanding.

I hope you find something here worth reading. However, it seems unlikely that this blog will benefit you more than it has benefitted me.
