1.52.3 🧬 Sunday Links… My STEM Sources, Deadly Animals, Vibe Coding, Möbius Math, Beautiful Universe

Hello! I want to send a last Sunday email with 7+ fun STEM links. Plus a link to a post with the STEM resources I used to find the links and topics for the email newsletter. If it helps, the post includes a browser bookmarks file you can import into your favorite web browser. And an OPML file you can import into Feeder.co or similar RSS service. Feeder gives you 200 sources for free. Plus their phone app makes it easy to browse stories instead of digging through email newsletters.

But first, here’s the final Sunday STEM/STEAM email with links to share with you. The last link is to a post with my online resources. Plus a link to 125 fun interesting STEM links I never got around to sending in a Sunday email. Hope you enjoy clicking and reading!

Thank you again!

I appreciate all the comments over the past dozen years publishing my print + online kids computing magazine and the 30 STEM Links email newsletter in the past year. It’s been a fun journey. Please let me know if somehow I can help in the future. And good luck to you on your STEM/STEAM adventures!
