It may be a bit soon but I've produced a #calendar for #2025. Unlike previous editions, which featured some of my photographs, this one contains #illustrations to do with #mathematics, #geometry, #physics and #engineering applications.

My wife was looking at the properties of #ellipses such as the one where the sum of the distance of all points on the #ellipse from the two foci are the same and how that relates to the standard equation of an ellipse and so I showed her using my scribbly #handwriting and untidy drawings. Unfortunately, it didn't quite hit home and so I wrote these notes up neatly using #LaTeX, which did do the trick.
To put it up here, I converted the #PostScript pages to #PNG format using #GNU #Gimp and the figure was produced using #Tgif.

🇦🇺 Die ∼32 im Park Hotel inhaftierten #Refugees bekommen gerade viel Aufmerksamkeit.
Für alle, die das erst jetzt erfahren haben: Seit 9 Jahren sind über 200 Menschen offshore in #PNG🇵🇬 & #Nauru🇳🇷 und 70 onshore; die in PNG wurden von #Australien allein gelassen.

If anyone hates having to deal with .webp files as much as I do, here's a firefox addon to request an original .jpg or .png file instead.
