https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/international-journal-of-fatigue found the academic journal about me and my problems

more specifically: the lineage of routing/nav in operations research and the transfer of these methods to industry are the story that's less legible to me

STS mastodon: who/what should I be reading for history of operations research? trying to piece together some stuff in routing and navigation tech history and seems to all come back to OR but wondering if someone's actually written this up already

Been in upstate NY for maybe 14 hours and weirdly aware of how city-adjusted I am, it's like I'm at a different frame rate from the landscape

Pettily relieved that the person Cooper hired instead of me for that FT role I interviewed for in March has such radically different research interests that I can't take the rejection personally

RIP Michel Callon, pouring out some scallops 4 u today

@williampietri I was just scrolling on Bandcamp! Turns out we have a mutual friend and they showed someone in the band the photo, said it had their vibe, and the band loved it
