There's a lot of libraries that do the hard work for you though... Anyway, if an EKF is too much effort, you could also try the "Madgwick" filter: Madgwick, S. O., Harrison, A. J., & Vaidyanathan, R. (2011). Estimation of

did you try magit? Maybe it is of limited use for non-emacs users, but imho it's a fantastic way to use git with a perfect balance between making simple things very easy to do and allowing (almost) anything you can do with the CLI whil

The Japanese keyboard layout is great for that! I am using Control on the Muhenkan and Henkan buttons left and right of the space bar and Alt on Alt and Katakana/Hiragana/Romaji buttons next to them. I also have Caps lock mapped t

As a side note, if you are already in emacs, you could write your articles in org-mode instead of LaTex. It's gotten to a point where I am starting to see Latex exclusively as a language to compile to, not something you want to write y

Also, are they counting all previous versions of the software instead of just the latest? Moreover, I wonder how the human drivers in the statistics fare if you correct for drunk driving / using cellphone, etc. In my opinion, any autop

While I agree with you that urxvt is a great tool, I disagree with the suggestion that the terminal is "a solved problem" (or that vim is perfection). There is a lot of room for innovation, though not necessarily in the direction

Ok, I gave the motivating example another shot... not sure if it helps, but please let me know if you have any suggestions.

Thanks for the kind words. Until I left academia I used to work with matlab a lot, and pyexperiment is probably a result of trying to get that experience while making scripts that can easily be shared along with the data needed to run them.

Thanks for the feedback. I will try to improve the example and make it more "experimental".

Thanks for your feedback. I see your point, but at this point I am kind of attached to the name - as a researcher many of my scripts are related to some kind of experiment. This also explains the NumPy and matplotlib dependencies. As for st

Pandas and matplotlib are great, I use them all the time. Yet whenever I write a python script for such experiments, beyond some point, I find myself writing code that parses command line arguments, handles simple configuration options, sav
