Hey, Brooklyn Dad Defiant is here!

Elliott Downing has the solution

I remember back when #johnmastodon was John "Cougar" Mastodon.

@Mmerrikin Some say he doesn’t exist and that the whole thing started earlier today when the writer of an article misread “join mastodon” as “John mastodon” and thought John was an actual person.

Tired: Tech writers dumping on Mastodon without having ever used it

Wired: Political writers inventing a founder for Mastodon because they can’t read #JohnMastodon

Hey y'all: Given Twitter’s turbulence we want to build our platform here on Mastodon to make sure we can continue our conversations on a public social media platform.

Can you please BOOST this post and FOLLOW our account and encourage your followers to do the same? Thank you.

This piece by @brianklaas is very good. Musk has always struck me as a fraud, but it's easier to spot when you’ve been in showbiz your whole life.

A front page article on the Washington Post telling people how to get started with Mastodon?

That’s a big deal.

Hey folks, introduction. Long time microtonalist, just intonation is my thing. Minimalism is my path again. Music on Bandcamp now, old videos on youTube.

I used to play guitar, broke my elbows in 2009. I finally gave up on gtr a few years ago, but use VST to make music now. Pianoteq & Surge help in the tuning dept.

So I understand that the bird site has started blocking links to common/known Mastodon instances, and that doesn't seem like free speech to me. So... I did a thing.

If you go to https://spacekaren.sucks it is now a URL shortener that blocks the twitter user agent. That means you can share that link that will redirect to your Mastodon account without the pouty baby stopping you. If you find this helpful can you boost so others can find it? #TwitterMigration #Mastodon #Musk #introduction

Here is another pointer to the 229 Quantum Tooters here on Mastodon that you can directly import as your following list with a few clicks. https://cutt.ly/6MnBTJ3

This list is obviously incomplete and still growing. So please do let me know if there are to be any additions.

Happy Tooting! 😄

November 25, 2022:

In this conversation James Dolan continued relating the moduli stack of elliptic curves to the moduli stack of acute (including right) triangles.

He showed how to get from such a triangle to a tetrahedron with four copies of that triangle as faces, and then from that to an elliptic curve that's a branched double cover of the Riemann sphere, with the tetrahedron's four corners as branch points.
