   There does seem to be a lot of editing work required to get this working. I would like to understand if there's a more automated way of doing this.

   I have been looking at this a lot recently and here are some of my thoughts. I mostly work in Python doing data things, and I wanted an easy way to orchestrate some of my workflows. So I decided to build a UI. First, what is the landscape.

   I go to youtube only for recommendations. Sometimes they are good. Then I open the link in NewPipe. No ads!

   It is indeed weird that a party calling itself "Green" is so much against the actual meaning of the word.

   It feels like with the "demise" of AnandTech, cool articles like this have become rare.

    We have been in Germany for a couple of years and in my experience things are changing rapidly. First, it is nearly impossible to get an apartment for rent in the big cities. Second rents are rapidly rising and I don't think it will

    The problem with Newton's method is that it is provably convergent but only if you are sufficiently close to the solution. That basically means that the initial condition that you chose for solving the problem is very important. What t

    There's a lot of Fortran work being done recently including a standard library and package manager. Maybe you could find something there, or just ask in their mailing lists. https://github.com/fortran-lang

    This sounds great in theory. But rail services are very inefficient monopolies. Here in Germany, DB Services are routinely affected by strikes leaving no alternatives. So no trains cannot replace planes unless this situation is improved.

    I have tried macports, spack and to a limited extent homebrew. But the package manager that seems to work best for me is actually Anaconda, which is very surprising.

    There are a few projects like this from US labs, like RAJA and OCCA. But is there wider adoption of any of these outside of research labs?

    A little off topic but is there a good library for physics simulations that involve cloth modeling.

    I also use Fortran daily but I see more and more people/organizations try to move out of it. What language they move to remains to be seen, however the recent efforts to modernise Fortran, create a standard library may yet breathe new

    Supersonic flight is easy. Efficient supersonic flight is hard. Aerodynamics, aerostructure, propulsion all of them are trying to break you. Controlling all of them would definitely be an achievement.
