  1. "#LeoraFreedman, the #author of four #novels and numerous #shortstories that explore aspects of the #Jewish experience, lives in #Toronto. But back in the day, she was a student at the #University of #Arizona, graduating from the creative #writing program with a Master of Fine Arts in 1985 and winning first place in the Robert Downs #Fiction Contest, among other awards.

    [...]

    In #Freedman’s new #novel, “#CherryBaum” (KTAV, 2025), a Jewish blogger and mother of four realizes she has the power to heal the sick, communicate telepathically, and soul-travel through time and space.

  3. Difficulty of proving the Generalized Poincaré Conjecture as a function of dimension:

    n=1: Trivial

    n=2: Easy (19th century)

    n=3: Perelman (2003), declined Fields Medal

    n=4: Freedman (1982), won Fields Medal

    n≥5: Smale (1961), won Fields Medal

    The difficulty of the generalized Poincaré conjecture is non-monotonic in dimension!

  7. Turns out "scallywag" was a derogatory term for post #civilwar #Southerners who helped #black folks gain freedom and prosperity by joining the republicans and supporting the #Freedman's bureau. Sounds like a great title to claim for any proud… toot.cat/@anubis2814/10…
