Building a sensory screening tool for the European green crab
A calculator that answers what a green crab can detect, in what units, at what range — and refuses to answer where nobody has measured. What it found about mechanoreception, chemistry, electric and magnetic fields, and how the native crabs compare.

"Frequencies" are just one piece of the puzzle
Building a list of every kind of information a biological signal is known to carry, and which structural feature of the wave carries it — then asking the same question of tides, seismic noise and the solar cycle.

What software can and cannot buy you
Two months of trying to push a phone magnetometer past what its hardware should allow — what the discipline actually bought, how it compares to the other implementations, and the wall that no amount of code moves.

What already reads the field
Sharks, bumblebees, spiders, electric fish, sediment bacteria and migratory birds all solve sensing problems this bench keeps re-deriving. A survey of the biological precedent — and one popular story about spider webs that is wrong.

A computer science approach to neuroscience
How this work is done: build first and narrow later, write down what would kill a claim before measuring, and refuse to specialise. A method post — it makes no empirical claim and cites nothing, because there is nothing here to cite.

Can a $70 board tell me I'm wrong?
An n-of-1 EEG rig, an analog ceiling that removes the signal I was designing for, and a question I can't answer alone.

How research gets published here
The publishing protocol behind this site: a citation gate that makes an invented reference impossible, a confidence tier that is computed rather than claimed, and an honest account of what is written by a human and what is not.
