On a break, trying to figure out where we actually are in the Kemihaara Wilderness Area, Finland, during Christmas and New Year's Eve 2023/2024. We got pretty badly lost on this hike and for five days, we only had a vague idea of where we were. But since we always pack food for a few extra days, we didn't have any other emergency except that it started to become mentally exhausting. I would say I'm pretty good at navigating, but in forests, sometimes my inner compass just gets overwhelmed, or I get lost in my own thoughts and forget to be on alert for landmarks.

Happy #Nowruz to all who celebrate. Makes much more sense to me to celebrate the #NewYear at the beginning of spring on an astronomically significant day rather than on some odd, astronomically insignificant day in mid-winter. I mean, what’s up with that anyway? So to celebrate Nowruz, which BTW is observed by an enormous population including in Iran, Central and South Asia, I’m posting a short video memorial to one of the greatest #mathematicians ever, who happened to be an #Iranian woman, Maryam Mirzakhani. The first woman to win the Field’s Prize, math’s equivalent to the Nobel, Mirzakhani broke barriers and forever changed her chosen field. A Harvard graduate and former professor at both Princeton and Stanford, she deserves more attention than she gets. Regrettably, she died far too young at 40. May the new year bring us more genius minds like hers. #math #mathematics #STEM #WomenInSTEM #science

Happy Chinese New Year's to everyone near and far. May you have a year of happiness and prosperity!

To celebrate the Year of the Snake, let me give you the single best Trevor Noah sketch about a Snake in Bali. One of the funniest things I've ever seen - stick with it until the last five seconds.

Welcome to 2025! New year, new you, and all that guff.

But before your resolutions quickly peter out, read this Science Focus piece, by me, about why something ostensibly good for us is often so off putting.

Happy Lunar New Year!

If you were born in the year of the snake, be careful! 2025 is your Ben Ming Nian—a year traditionally believed to bring bad luck due to a conflict with Tai Sui, the God of Age 🐉

Don't worry, wearing red through the year should help you fight off the bad luck 🔴
