  1. Poster 3 of [who knows how many] has been finished. I was going for a "tacky and well-dated yet kinda cool-looking poster you'd see on a library wall during the 90's" vibe. Enjoy.

  2. This #molecule puts a new twist on the #MöbiusStrip
    #C13Cl2 is first experimental observation of what scientists call a half-Mobius electronic topology in a single molecule. Two chlorine atoms impart a twist that allows it to form half-Möbius geometry. To researchers' knowledge, nothing like it has ever been synthesized, observed, or even formally predicted. And proving why it behaves this way required something extraordinary, quantum computer.

  3. Reading about Möbius strips on Wikipedia because it's more engaging than work right now.

  4. 🤖📈 Ah, the groundbreaking revelation that AI has infiltrated Hacker News! Next, we’ll discover water is wet. Kudos to the brave soul who used AI to analyze AI posts—truly a Möbius strip of tech marvel. 😂🔄

  5. @marick 🧵Klein bottle hat

    Cliff Stoll also sells hand-knit Acme Klein Bottle Hats with a matching Mobius Scarf! The Acme ordering experience — including the web page, order confirmation, and shipping notice — is charming.

  6. Ah, the esteemed Collatz Conjecture! 🎩 A mathematical riddle so perplexing that geniuses have resorted to fixed point theorems in metric spaces to solve it. 🚀 But let's be honest, reading this paper feels like being trapped in a Möbius strip of jargon—you're just going in circles! 😅🔄

  7. My obsession with crochet has persisted. I present you with today's creation: trans colors inspired Möbius strip.

    I'm getting much better at turning stitches, keeping my edges straight, and changing colors, just struggling with crocheting final edges together and weaving extra strands in edges in a clean way (advice welcome!).
    Gonna gift this to a cool friend!

  8. I'm gonna have to increase the #PopcornBudget.

    My timeline is filling up with #Spectacle, the #HobbyHorse, and the pushed #Wheelbarrow, not all of which I value quite as much as the posters thereof.

    Thank God or PastaFarie for Tooters of the mundane and personal.

    And those who shared #MobiusStrip jokes.

  12. “It might help to think of the universe as a rubber sheet, or perhaps not”*…

    You have most likely encountered one-sided objects hundreds of times in your daily life – like the universal symbol for recycling, found printed on the backs of aluminum cans and plastic bottles.

    This mathematical object is called a Mobius strip. It has fascinated environmentalists, artists, engineers, mathematicians and many others ever since its discovery in 1858 by August Möbius, a German mathematician who died 150 years ago, on Sept. 26, 1868.

    Möbius discovered the one-sided strip in 1858 while serving as the chair of astronomy and higher mechanics at the University of Leipzig. (Another mathematician named Listing actually described it a few months earlier, but did not publish his work until 1861.  Indeed, it had already appeared in Roman mosaics from the third century CE.)…

    The discovery of the Möbius strip in the mid-19th century launched a brand new field of mathematics: topology: “The Mathematical Madness of Möbius Strips and Other One-Sided Objects.”

    * Terry Pratchett, Hogfather

    As we return from whence we came, we might wish a Joyeux Anniversaire to Denis Diderot, contributor to and the chief editor of the Encyclopédie (“All things must be examined, debated, investigated without exception and without regard for anyone’s feelings.”)– and thus towering figure in the Enlightenment; he was born on this date in 1713.  Diderot was also a novelist (e.g., Jacques le fataliste et son maître [Jacques the Fatalist and his Master])…  and no mean epigramist:

    From fanaticism to barbarism is only one step.

    We swallow greedily any lie that flatters us, but we sip only little by little at a truth we find bitter.

    Man will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest.

    A thing is not proved just because no one has ever questioned it.
