https://as.tufts.edu/physics/people/faculty/ken-olum

about the recent largest-ever cosmic string simulation also introducing their new spacetime-volume pseudo-parallel simulation technique, relating to gravitational backreaction.

People sometimes ask, "who uses common lisp today".

Olum learned #lisp from John McCarthy.

This #live episode / interview will be more "interviewing a physicist" (at their request), though I will be watching for live questions/comments/responses in #lisp on #irc as well as in the usual moo room, but the VR will not be a central subject. Additional questions here please!

We will also talk about Olum's use of dictation software.

#MPI as well.
