Research
My research writing: physics, math, information theory, learning theory, and the occasional adjacent topic. The plainness of the theming is deliberate.
The other pages:
- Non-Research Writing — non-research pieces: essays, translations, poetry.
- AI-Written Notes — working notes on what I am currently thinking about, written up by an LLM from my drafts.
- Curated Tutorial Prompts — mini-curricula and hands-on tutorials to feed to an LLM or work through yourself.
- Widgets — small interactive toys that run in the browser.
- About and CV — who I am, and my CV.
