The Simons-Laufer Mathematical Sciences institute, or (formerly the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, or MSRI) has recently restructured its program formats, and is now announcing three new research initiatives, whose applications open on Sep 1 2025:

* AxIOM (Accelerating Innovation in Mathematics) is a new, month-long research program at SLMath, designed to accelerate innovation and introduce transformative ideas into the mathematical sciences. Programs begin in Spring 2027.
* PROOF (Promoting Research Opportunities and Open Forums) is a two-week summer program designed to provide research opportunities for U.S.-based mathematicians, statisticians, and their collaborators in the U.S. and abroad, whose ongoing research may have been impacted by factors such as heavy teaching loads, professional isolation, limited access to funding, heavy administrative duties, personal obligations, or other constraints. Programs begin June-July 2026.
* Lasting Alliance Through Team Immersion and Collaborative Exploration (LATTICE) is a yearlong program which provides opportunities for U.S. mathematicians to conduct collaborative research on topics at the forefront of the mathematical and statistical sciences. Programs begin June-July 2026.

The web connects us so deeply, we hardly notice. Now, with 1 trillion pages archived, the Wayback Machine helps us understand how online and offline blur—shrinking distance and creating friendships, love, and community that feel right next door.

I still think we could have claimed the word "Tweet" as our own.

It might have made the Fediverse look more like the place to go for those looking to leave X and looking for a "new Twitter".

Attached: 1 image Here are the results of this poll — https://mastodon.social/@reiver/111178826398251610 I asked the question: “Since Twitter (now called 𝕩) purged the words "tweet" and "retweet" from their platform —” “Should we (in the Fediverse) claim these words for our ourselves, and start using them over here?” About 89% voted "no". About 11% voted "yes". (I'm removing the "just show results" votes, which aren't real votes.) So most don't want to use "tweet" and "retweet" on the Fediverse. But a significant minority does.

I have a question for anyone involved in the : do you have any audio or video recordings of any of the meetings? I don't think we ever recorded; it wasn't the norm at the W3C at the time, and not even common now afaik. But maybe at the kickoff TPAC? Or in Portland or San Francisco? @cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber @tantek.comTantek Çelik @aaronpkAaron Parecki @dissolveBeBe Roberts @bengo@mastodon.social @tsyesikaTsyesìka @lehorsArnaud J Le Hors @sandroSandro Hawke @rhiarohttps://rhiaro.co.uk/

I really do find it charming that Metafilter still looks exactly like this today. Like a crustacean that hasn't changed for million of years - it already perfectly fits its evolutionary niche.

I'm so happy to live in a world where every 25 year old on YouTube, making $800,000 a month with their AI startup, wants to spend their time teaching me to do the same for only $499 course. Such bountiful fortune. This is more luck than I deserve 🥹

Canto typing and Taiwan-Mandarin phonetics are all really hard to use.

I just want to use standard Chinese pinyin to be able to type in Traditional Chinese. Currently, I write everything in simplified, then put it through a translator to get traditional characters. 😭
