A lovely aspect of expecting my first baby soon is the support from friends who are already moms. They've been giving me great advice about pregnancy and newborns, sharing helpful resources, gifting or lending me items they liked, or just checking in. It's so heartwarming!

Uh this shouldn't count as 2FA

Robot metal arms from MakerMods have arrived and assembling them with @wwarren onto our coffee table. Excited to train it and learn a lot!

Looking at dogs that need foster homes and her name is Elizabeth Holmes lol

In retrospect I would have started my physics studying with Feynman's lectures on the character of physical law before my textbooks. He gives such a beautiful and inspiring framing You can watch the lectures or read the transcript in this book. Accessible with very little math

I just voted to stay and build a techno-optimist community with the Network School Farcaster core team. We’re going to implement a Singapore-like code to ensure positive-sum behavior within this app, as distinct from the hostility of most social media. It’s an experiment in decentralized digital democracy, where everyo... Show more

My husband got an NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano for robotics experimentation. So cool how much computing power it has given the size and cost ($400)

Still wrapping my mind around the fact that in quantum mechanics, all electrons are identical and no one knows which is which

Finished reading my 3rd physics textbook Intro to Electrodynamics by Griffiths. It was excellent with lots of derivations and helpful examples/problems. My fav topic so far is electromagnetism I emailed Griffiths how much I loved it, he actually replied and it made me so happy!

Random unexpected benefit of my physics studying the past year has been being way more handy around the house. Physical issues are like little physics problem to me now and it makes it fun to figure out and fix vs defaulting to asking my husband to do it or just ignoring it
