   :\ just finished applying for an NSF grant. I've got to look into other sources of funding.

   I've found (good) review papers invaluable as an academic. They're really useful as a fast ladder to getting up to speed in a new area. Usually they have a great literature review (with the important papers to read afterward), a c

   Pretty cool test, but I wonder how fast you ran them at? I was able to distinguish between full and half after increasing the speed to around ~2000 units.

   Do you have any opinions on ergoKB? I've begun to notice some pain, not in my wrists, but in my upper forearms and am thinking about something to fix that.

   I thought it was funny :/ Surely not warranting a response like this.

   I don't think it's that crazy. Hyprland has, for a long time, looked really lovely when configured. But most don't want to configure it, the linux ricing community is really small in proportion to even the people who want to

   As an owner of the original FW16, I'm really happy with this update! I hope that there's some news on an external case for old mainboards.

   Thanks, I was scouring the article looking for the original study, could not believe that they didn't have it linked.

   I actually really liked seeing the mascot. Brought a sense of whimsy to the Internet that I've missed for a long time.

    For anyone else curious, they actually have a deep dive on the subject. You can also replace it with another since it's just flexATX, albeit with some requirements. https://community.frame.work/t/framework-desktop-

    This is pretty great. Passing python code out to my students is usually also confronted with the question of "How do I run it?", which is usually terrible to answer. Now, I can just tell them to get uv (single command) and run it.

    Loved the talk, but as I'm a mathematician myself this probably qualifies as preaching to the choir =) . Looking forward to whenever the Ryan Fleury BSC talk gets published!

    I doubt it, since I saw it on my firefox+linux machine. Perhaps hardware? I was using AMD CPU + graphics.

    I hope they manage to do something similar for the NSF. The proposed cuts there are crushing. The NSF funds great science in all parts of the country, and subsequently tons of jobs to the area.

    Oh, it’s Wolfgang. In computational math, he has a focus on research software that few others are able to do, he (the deal.ii team more generally) got an award for it last SIAMCSE. Generally a great writer, looking forward to reading this.

    Premium support with a foss product seems like a win-win idea. Hope it goes well. Reminds me to donate to the stuff I use daily.

    It's Krause, he's one of the biggest researchers in the field. At least based on the other work of his I've read, he's a good writer too. This ought to be a worth while read.

    Most departments at the moment are choosing to be conservative with their funds. No one really knows how their capacity, whether through grants or through teaching, is going to change. As far as I know, many universities are also pausing hi

    Glad to hear that a stable 60 is possible on the steam deck. Racing games are, for me, some of my favorites to play handheld.
