with ~a day of constant claude use I ported a sophisticated matlab simulation (>10k lines) to python. it's faster, cleaner now.
why does Matlab still exist?

In computer simulations, as an object slides along the surface of ice, a structureless, "amorphous" layer forms. Materials scientists at Saarland University in Germany argue that this process may be the cause of ice’s slipperiness. quantamagazine.org/why-is-ic…

A while back @byte_thrasher's zine awarded me a micro-grant with edition 0x00's profits.

The plan from here:
-Custom driving electronics rp2350 controller
-Hardware upgrades for ease of assembly
-limit switch?
-magnetic tape encoder IC for absolute positioning
-Larger form factor

The goal is to get these working well enough to use in our ultrafast lasers, and potentially to upgrade the open source design a bit so they are more complete

I had trouble getting some of the parts (linear slides) in low quantities. I JLCCNC’d the housing and got other parts from digikey, etc.

There’s no science to back this up but I’m pretty sure homemade banana bread from your wife is more anabolic than any other food.
