- Reposted by Nick Dillon"Ants solving a geometric problem and it's amazing." This is a great example of 'emergent phenomenon': - None of the ants understand the problem they're solving. - None of them can see the whole shape. - A series of small decisions or rules add up to something with a new layer of complexity.

- Had a great visit at TTU as a TechASM Super Speaker. It's a really beautiful campus. Met a lot of nice faculty and students, and had a lot of wonderful conversations. Especially honored to have been selected and invited by the graduate students. Excited to watch all of your careers flourish!
