Be Water My Friend
Taking "immersive learning" to a whole new level! Engineering students know the struggle—fluid mechanics equations are so complex that you literally have to submerge yourself in the problem. Nothing says dedication like studying Bernoulli's principle while becoming one with the fluid. The Navier-Stokes equations make more sense when you're experiencing viscosity firsthand. Next week: studying thermodynamics inside a volcano!

When Fantasy Novels Break The Laws Of Physics
That internal screaming moment when you're enjoying a fantasy novel until someone travels faster than light or watches events unfold in real-time across interstellar distances. Einstein is rolling in his grave! Special relativity sets a cosmic speed limit that even magic shouldn't casually ignore. Nothing makes a physicist lose immersion faster than characters chatting across galaxies without communication delays or spaceships zipping between star systems for weekend getaways. Sure, it's fantasy, but would it kill authors to sprinkle in a tiny bit of relativistic consistency? My suspension of disbelief can handle dragons, but apparently draws the line at breaking fundamental physics.

My Arduino spins faster when Claude burns more tokens

Repurposed a broken Stirling-engine chassis as a desk toy that spins when Claude Code is busy and dies when I lock my Mac. Arduino + Kasa + Python. Read article →
