@freemo is the lighter light lighter when you're lit? Cause you can lower the lit lighter light lightly a little.. unless it's a Zippo.
This is a picture of my dad, one of the founders of the CIA and top advisor to JFK.
Photo's caption, National Geographic April 1968, 1st Lt. Carl M. Freeman III:
"Smiles of welcome light the faces of Mnong women and children at Buon Rocai as Lt. Freeman pays a surprised visit. Devoted to the people's welfare, the American helped reconstruct a bridge and rebuild a burned-out village; with the aid of U.S. Army medic Owen Wright of Dallas, Texas., he expanded medical facilities to treat the sick. After four months of intensive effort, Freeman collapsed of exhaustion and malaria. Now recovered, he commands the Special Forces team at An Lac."
@freemo Agree, #programming in #haskell is exhilarating. One of my favourite papers ever on applying #haskell for fun and profit: "Exploiting vector instructions with generalized stream fusion" by Geoffrey Mainland et al. 2013 https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/2500365.2500601 where the authors "describe a stream representation suited for efficient computation with SSE instructions" which compare favourably to C++ implementations.
I wanna do a project in haskell soooo bad.. i just cant justify a full stack project with it for various technical and social reasons... but its so much fun!
I will miss the #borscht that our guests from #Ukraine️ made us. Very happy that they are quickly settling into their new home though #HomesForUkraine 🇺🇦
I did start writing up a grease monkey script that would render markdown within mastodon on other instances. Though only works in the browser and as much as I see client based have their own render rules.
#introduction
This should be my last introduction toot! I mentioned my professional focus (#neuroimaging #neuroscience signal analysis) in my last toot. Now, for my other non-research engagements...
I am a #maker who uses tools like #programming #arduino #msp430 #raspberrypi #electronics and #3dprinting to prototype fun projects. I have my own fleet of 3d printers and support equipment.
As a signal processing engineer, I'm also very interested in #sdr (software-defined radio). I'm working on two pet projects right now employing SDR and my maker tools for backyard #radio #astronomy and satellite signal reception. While not entirely novel end-goals, the work is very engaging and rewarding! I hope to package the results for science outreach in #steam in the near future.
Everyone should expect neuroimaging research toots from me as well as updates on my projects and resources for #STEM and #STEAM engagement in the classroom. I hope to contribute to #edutoot by sharing my demos, resources, and projects for bringing innovative thinking, science, and engineering into the classroom.
I love #biking and outdoor activities. I'm a novice in #photograpy (microscope as well as DSLR) and am looking for hints and suggestions for my entry into #astrophotography . Any advice? Let me know! I have a strong love of #fish and #aquariums, so expect my gushing about fish on occasion. I also have a pet parakeet, so expect some bird antics along the way! It can't all be work and seriousness, after all!
@freemo that’s a nuanced point you make. Said victim if kept in the dark by some auto-block feature could then turn around later and say - but I never knew this was going on! At least if I’d known I could have done something about it!
My abstract got accepted to #AGBT '23 today! 🎉
Anyone else planning to go?
C'mon, this is comedy gold.. how doesnt this have like 100 reboosts by now!
cannabis ...
quality ...
and standardization ...
web...
@WhatYouMcCallit The fediverse is about cooperation... with me... so do what I say or gtfo.
@freemo It's Orwellian and Authortarian, exactly the thing most "progressives" say they hate. I don't get this instance thing when the tools to block entire instances are in the app, (web browser). Haven't checked to see if Fedilab has that option, but that's the way it should be done. Let the user decide!
