One more with the killer title slide. You inspired a lot of students. Maybe some will make it out to @IslandCampus
I had a great time meeting with faculty and students of @BYU Chemistry representing @IslandCampus and a huge thanks to @wfpaxton for the invite. #chemistry #science

Anyone interested in a postdoc with Simon Rogers and me at UIUC on memory formation in colloidal suspensions? This collaboration will include simulations and experiments. The Beckman Postdoc Fellowship might be a great opportunity! beckman.illinois.edu/researc…

Simulators! We are working on releasing some of our tools. This week's is lammpsio, (yet another) Python package for reading & writing LAMMPS data & dump files. We think the interface is pretty clean in our workflows. Available @ pypi.org/project/lammpsio

Since 1969 Strassen’s algorithm has famously stood as the fastest way to multiply 2 matrices - but with #AlphaTensor we’ve found a new algorithm that’s faster, with potential to improve efficiency by 10-20% across trillions of calculations per day! dpmd.ai/dm-alpha-tensor
