An axiomatic way to life

25 march 2025

Circa 300 before Christ the mathematician Euclid created the 13-book series The Elements. The most influential textbook of all time. Shaping logic as the way we know it today. Making use of definitions, common notions and axioms, which are unproven statements generally accepted to be true. Creating a framework which can be used to prove its propositions.  This axiomatic approach has been extremely influential and can now be found in any field relying on logic. In this article I want to reflect on the influence of The Elements and talk about the axiomatic approach to reason that it formally introduced to the world.

Are You the Only You in an Infinite Universe? 

20 march 2025

Imagine walking down the street, thinking that no one else in the universe is exactly like you. Your experiences, your thoughts, and even your random quirks make you feel special. But what if, somewhere out there, another version of you exists—living an identical life, making the same choices, and even reading this very article right now? While this may sound like science fiction, if the universe is truly infinite, then probability suggests it could be reality. And not just once, but an infinite number of times.

The Zipper Merge: Why Merging Late is the Smartest Move

18 march 2025

Traffic jams are a daily frustration for millions of drivers worldwide. One of the most misunderstood aspects of traffic flow is how to merge efficiently when two lanes come to one. While most drivers believe merging early is the polite and responsible choice, mathematics and traffic engineers prove otherwise. The zipper merge, where drivers use both lanes fully and merge at the last possible moment, is actually the best method for reducing traffic jams and maintaining traffic flow.
