I love how now when I google a word like "Scincerely" to double check I spelt it correctly, I now get 5 autogenerated paragraphs opining whether I meant "Sincerely". Love. It.

Reading Dungeon Crawler Carl (about half way through book 1). So far the style isn't my thing but I'm willing to finish the first book. Anyone else felt the same way in the first book but then it clicked? Worth sticking with it?

another round of figure updates complete. Wierldy, its a bit of a bummer leaving academia soon on a paper / topic I am really enjoying. This might be my favourite paper I've written so far. Good to end on a high note I guess?

Papers being "written" in a couple of hours, and that being a point of pride, is disturbing. ""written"" doesn't mean published, but that distinction often doesn't mean much to the general public either. Anyway, back to hour 100 of my single paper that will probably never be cited -_-

Today I learned that because MRIs are superconducting, they are cheap to keep going but *very* expensive to turn off/on. They are only ever turned off in a life-threatening emergency and can take a week to bring back online. This means the MRI scene in the newest final destination makes no sense.

Another one for the network fans. This is conceptually similar to what my irl research is. We know the brain is a network but physically getting it is effectively impossible, so what is the best we can do (with the least amount of effort)?
