Hi, all! The Jacobs Physics blog, archives and all, have migrated to jacobsphysics.org. I'm escaping Google, for reasons. Come visit! I'm still rearranging furniture in the new home, but you should be able to access all the archives there. All future posts will go to jacobsphysics.org. You can contact me there with a comment; on bluesky where I'm @jacobsphysics; and via email at my woodberry.org address.
