    A woman in a gallery in Paris once asked me what I did & I said I work on a very large physics experiment in Switzerland called the at to explore the fundamental mysteries of the universe & she asked how large is large & I said

    Almost sold out: the Developers' Summit on 13 Feb. I put together the program of speakers again, and am proud of the line-up: just to name a few. If you want to join us, now is the time!

    Surely it's possible to find another science communicator for this, ; there are hundreds. Neil deGrasse Tyson has been credibly accused of rape & sexual harassment by multiple women & has experienced no meaningful consequences.

    There’s probably only one of these in the universe. I’ve worked at for years & still, every time I go 100m underground to our , I’m humbled & awed that humanity is capable of constructing such an incredible device simply because we’re curious about nature.

    Where are the new physics discoveries hiding? Possibly at high energies, but also perhaps as FIPs, feebly-interacting particles. Join us at FIPs 2020, in May, to explore FIPs at collider/dark matter/neutrino/axion experiments & beyond. Register now!

    "As Packer reminds us, Hitchens once said, 'views do not really count.' 'It matters not what you think ... but how you think.' The remark is important because it is wrong. The views counted a great deal to the Iraqis." Excellent article by .

    I don't know how to tell people that America's Third Republic and modern attempt at democracy ended with Bush v. Gore and if you haven't realized that by now, well.

    "[H]istory is not a straight line up or down, & ... presenting 'data' as though it produces & speaks for itself is worse than useless: it is profoundly dishonest." Read Jessica Riskin's review of Steven Pinker's shoddy Enlightenment Now.

    It was an excellent experience giving the closing keynote at the Forum a couple of months ago. A great response to my speech & vibrant discussions afterward about physics, black holes, science, & the nature of innovation. Thanks again to the wonderful organizers!

    Excellent, infuriating article by via . Send this to any clownish "sexism is a myth!!1!" people in your orbit. "Courses on women’s history ... should be mandatory [...] male scholars’ power to evaluate female peers & students should also be restrained."
