Artemis 2 was the furthest human voyage from Earth. Per the final JPL Horizons trajectory I estimate the max distance from the geocenter was 413145 km at 2304 UTC Apr 6 (about 4 km less and 1 min later than PAO's report at the time). (1 / n ).....

I thought it would be a good idea to switch the bibliography tool to biblatex+biber in our LaTeX template for students. Apparently, the longer compilation time makes it impossible to use on the free-tier Overleaf. (Which I didn't think to check before rolling it out!)

My friend and colleague Remco Heesen once told me study of social epistemology of science made him "less trusting of any particular scientific paper but more impressed by science as a whole." I honestly think that's the right lesson to draw. But I think holding both attitudes doesn't come naturally.

And now I just found that Apple doesn't even follow the DIN standard German layout (surprise!), and the backslash is actually a fourth-level character (activated with Shift + AltGr/Option) on the German Mac keyboard.

Whenever I help a colleague with a LaTeX problem, one of the first questions I always have to ask is: Where the fuck are backslash and curly brackets on the German keyboard again? (For some reason Apple doesn't print third-level characters on their physical keyboards.)

The problem with most machine-based random number generators is that they’re not TRULY random, so if you need genuine randomness it is sometimes necessary to link your code to an external random process like a physical noise source or the current rate of US tariffs on a given country.

The fact that this communication is now necessary ... for conferences happening in the *US* ... shocking.

The 75th Annual Conference of the International Communication Association (#ICA25), set for 12-16 June in Denver Colorado, USA, is shaping up to be ICA’s largest conference yet, tracking with Toronto and Paris in terms of preregistration numbers. At the same time, we are closely monitoring the evolving situation in the United States which has raised concerns for some members of the ICA community intending to participate. We recognize your concerns regarding the uncertain environment and appreciate your feedback and perspectives.

We affirm ICA’s dedication to a global exchange of knowledge and perspectives and protecting the free exchange of ideas among our members and attendees. Current rhetoric and actions in some US communities run counter to ICA’s commitment to ensuring the full and equal participation of all members of our global academic community and conflict directly with ICA's IDEA principles.

With all these grammar checkers being “AI-based”, it feels like it should be much easier now to create such a tool that is explicitly more “LaTeX-aware”. Is there one out there? #AcademicSky

To me, “short messages from people you follow shown in chronological order” was very much the defining characteristic of Twitter. I find it an interesting (maybe Twitter-generational) divide that the “algorithmic” feed was so central to many people's perception of it.

See, maybe that's different for native speakers. But when I'm writing, at least 50% is paying attention to using the correct prepositions, finding good synonyms, and avoiding repetitions. Or I have to spread out these tasks over different iterations.

Here's a fun way to encourage students to always look at their data. A few years ago, I wrote a script that converts a black and white png to data and plots it.

Plotted version of png converted to data with regression fit line. It appears there's a positive association between steps and sleep. But the simulated data points spell out "OH NO!"

I haven't tried VerbTeX, though, which seems like a possible candidate for a good offline LaTeX environment on Android.

I recently tried working offline on LaTeX documents on my Android tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab S7). The setup involves the full TeXLive (!) via Termux and Acode editor. IMO it works fine as an occasional substitute. Would be better if the editor is more "TeX-aware" (with autocomplete, etc.)

The National Gallery in London is renovating its Sainsbury Wing and they’ve just found a secret letter from one of the original donors, sunk into a concrete column, saying that he hates the columns and is glad they’re being demolished. 10/10 unhinged rich man behaviour, no notes

TO THOSE WHO FIND THIS NOTE
IF YOU HAVE FOUND THIS NOTE YOU MUST BE ENGAGED IN DEMOLISHING ONE OF THE FALSE COLUMNS THAT HAVE BEEN PLACED IN THE FOYER OF THE SAINSBURY WING OF THE NATIONAL GALLERY.
I BELIEVE THAT THE FALSE COLUMNS ARE
A MISTAKE OF THE ARCHITECT AND THAT WE WOULD LIVE TO REGRET OUR ACCEPTING THIS DETAIL OF HIS DESIGN.
LET IT BE KNOWN THAT ONE OF THE DONORS OF THIS
BUILDING IS ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTED THAT YOUR GENERATION HAS DECIDED TO DISPENSE WITH THE UNNECESSARY COLUMNS.

If an academic society wants to charge different fees based on the country a person works in, I feel like categories based on (nominal) GDP per capita would make more sense than the HDI. Having Thailand in the "rich country" group but not China is wild (esp. when one fee is 2.5 times the other).
