Is the Sim-to-Real Gap Something to Close or to Measure?
A short research question on the gap between simulated and real robot behaviour for learned controllers, and why it may be more useful as a measured property than as a defect to remove.

What Makes a Simulation Trustworthy?
A short methodological note on verification, validation, and the limits of what a simulation can show.
Floating-Point Rounding in Long Simulations
A short methodological note on how finite precision, summation order and accumulated rounding error can matter in simulations that run for many steps.
