Welcome to MotherFunctor!

This is a newsletter that puts the “fun” in “federal funding updates” and other things going on in the federal government of interest to mathematicians.

What to expected (besides the unexpected)

Once in awhile, I’ll write (or co-write!) a long #DerivedCategories email about something. More often, I’ll test out my #⌈FRiday⌉ semi-automated Friday round up (get it?) of the Federal Register. That’s where the U.S. government agencies post legally required notices, like when a new system of records is being created, or a new visa rule is being proposed.

In the future, this newsletter will expand to cover the U.S. Congress and its goings-on.
