You're very kind! I'm particularly glad you liked that line, as my daughter liked it too. (I often run my stuff past her, she's a great editor. This is more confirmation that she has an eye for a good line!)
Interesting article in Nature (titled "Turbulent cold flows gave birth to the first quasars").
I say interesting, but I don't understand a word of it because its written in that special language peculiar to scientists, and therefore not accessible to luddites like me.
Thank you for writing in a way that includes the naive but curious folk like me!
I really liked this post. If I'm not mistaken, the recent news where JWST has seen many more mature galaxies in the early universe is a point in favor of the model you write about here.
You're a hard man to reach! My first e-mail to you got caught in the flood of new subscribers (congratulations, it's well deserved). The second was an automatic reply about the mailbox being unmonitored. I guess you got too many e-mails with all the subscribers. Anyway, I'm pretty sure the universe intended for us to talk so I made a Substack for it: https://plantser.substack.com/p/hi-julian-im-micke
Interesting post Julian! I am slowly working my way through all the posts, enjoying the content a lot.
I am not sure if I get which are the four mechanisms you say there are for quasars accelerating star formation, since the list has only 3 main bullet points.
It’s like saying when two gazelles collide, they make a tortoise.
Great clarity and damn funny.

I’m really enjoying this reading Are you publishing as a book?
Really liked the spark plug metaphor in this post. Effective language choice makes a huge difference in science writing.

I have a question about Smolin's theory -- what does it say happens when black holes merge or evaporate?
