Tau day - 6.28 - has come around again, so I have the once-a-year chance to plug The Tau of Two Pie and make some circle jokes which you have heard before.
As Walabio never fails to remind me, Tau Day (τ=6.28) has come around again. The once-a-year chance to celebate all things 2π. Of course, to the followers of tau, this is the true path, and pi is merely τ/2. Whatever angle you take on this circular discussion, have fun, and remember to respect people of all faiths and circle constants.
¡Today is TauDay! It is a day devoted to the 1 True CircleConstant:
τ = ( c / r ) ≈ 6.28318530717959

As I mentioned in the author's notes for the latest The Alchemist and the Mirror chapter, I've been distracted by a number of things in life. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War's Dark Crusade expansion is chief among the reasons why I haven't been writing over the last week [it was Borderlands 2, the week before].

A few weeks ago Walabio suggested I write a blog post for Tau Day. Tau Day, for those to whom this is all Greek, is an obvious extension of pi day: pi=π=3.14=March 14; tau=τ=2π=6.28=June 28. The benefits of using tau (defined as the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its radius), in place of the considerably more widely used pi (ratio of the circumference to the diameter), are partly that it is more natural, and
I got the original Battlefront 2 on my PS2 a week ago and have been having SO much fun with it. It's interesting how it was more focused on the Empire, I.E., how the Clones became Storm Troopers, over EA's 2nd Battlefront game. But I've had a lot of fun with this sequel, seeing it as an improvement over the 1st in many ways, though, I won't lie, it doesn't exactly hold up well, and that's not just for the graphics.
