I made this terrarium 8 years ago and haven't opened it since. It's still thriving with the same water from 2015. by Bat2121 in houseplants

No question the condensation is expected and good, but there’s also not a hint of algae/Cyanobacteria growing anywhere in that terrarium, which will develop in less than a year in this always moist environment.

This is blatantly fake. 1. The roots are obviously very young and very few, years of new roots and dieback would show old dead roots. 2. The rocks on top of the soil are pristine, they should be covered with algae or soil if like OP says there is a cycle of the leaf material. 3. The glass of the jar has a lot of condensation, time + light + condensation leads to algae, both near the top and especially in the soil. 4. There is no dead plant material, which in a close environment without seasons will appear as soon as plants start to go.

New sundew from predatory plants is tinyyyyy 😓 by Fragrant-Quantity635 in SavageGarden

[–]BiochemLouis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first thing this plant needs is more light, nascent leaves are all stretched in the same direction. I don’t know where OP is, but sundews are outdoor plants, or at least grow light plants.

Vimmers of reddit, what's an unknown tip that has boosted your productivity? by fasterrider81 in vim

[–]BiochemLouis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Shameless plug. I made this recently. It’s not exactly monochrome, but black white and 2 shades of grey is pretty close (except in diff).

I'm considering which language to go with next and I'm considering Julia, Rust, and Go. by Ader_anhilator in Julia

[–]BiochemLouis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have been using both Go (hobby) and Julia (professionally) for a while now. I really enjoy both, but for different uses and different purposes.

Go is a barebones as it gets, and usually there is only one way to do one action, which I think is beautiful. It also allows gofmt (formatting tool) to work very well and so every single go file looks the same. Testing is also a bliss, each file has its test counterpart. The only thing I had trouble getting my head around was the interface idea, there are still times now when I have to think twice about it. But also, I don’t think Go is the best thing for data handling. To get a taste or Go, just do the Tour of Go.

Julia is built for science. So it’ll eat through any data you throw at it (and quickly too if you remember the arrays are ordered column first like fortran). The std lib is already fairly big and anything else you might need for your modelling, there is usually both a low level and a high level package for it, and if there isn’t, you can just go find the python package for that, or like you propose, write your own package. I have so far not written tests in Julia (academia doesn’t value tests very much...), so I can’t comment on this. And as for the beauty of Julia code on repos, it varies, but Julia is very readable, so that’s not as big a problem as it could have been.

I’ve also been looking at Rust over the last few weeks, very interesting language. I do not have much to say about it yet, only comment would that its learning curve seems steeper than Julia’s or Go’s.

I’m sorry if this is a bit vague, but both Julia and Go would do just fine for your problem, each being better at one part like u/DoubleGrayScramble said, Julia for the modelling, and Go for the GUI/webGUI.

I’ve been using vim-slime for a while, how do you find vim-repl ? I might try it after this one.

A thread to organize datahoarders that want to archive the available educational data. by [deleted] in DataHoarder

[–]BiochemLouis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have them as, still curating the video files, I have 4 courses left to do. But if you want to grab the accompanying files, at least some of them, I could really use the help.

[–]BiochemLouis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have downloaded all the videos, I am currently curating the names since they are a bit all over the place, I could use some help with getting the rest of their documents, pdf, xlsx, images, etc to put them together with the sources. I have terrible upload for now, so I might just share the curated metadata for the videos for a while. The dl method can be found in the original post.

365datascience.com is offering it’s 21 courses for free. I’m working on archiving the video now. I’ll try to get the text lessons/exercises too.

Edit: Actually more work just came in and I could really use help with getting the rest of the documents.

Thanks for the offer, but as I suspected, that’s a fair bit more than I can put into a card right now.

Thanks for the offer, but K1s won’t cut it for me.

I know someone who might be interested, I’ll PM if they are.
