"TESS comes back to this part of the sky in November. I submitted an observing proposal asking it to record this star every 2 minutes while it's there. It was approved. Program #100. "

I've been using GeoGebra for years. I have tried Desmos twice but couldn't immediately spot the differences. What are the benefits of Desmos over GeoGebra?

This is a quote from the linked document:

> 10) In order not to hamper innovation or research, free and open-source software developed or supplied outside the course of a commercial activity should not be covered by this Regulation. This is in particular the case for software, including its source code and modified versions, that is openly shared and freely accessible, usable, modifiable and redistributable. In the context of software, a commercial activity might be characterized not only by charging a price for a product, but also by charging a price for technical support services, by providing a software platform through which the manufacturer monetises other services, or by the use of personal data for reasons other than exclusively for improving the security, compatibility or interoperability of the software.

Really interesting idea and I can see many game mechanics that benefit. What do you think is the minimum thickness using any technology available?

I went to the army and spent many days at an outdoor range shooting at targets with an automatic rifle. I was a pretty solid shooter and earned some medals. Yet I fail to see where is the "cool" part. Shooting is just another skill you practice in order to kill.

I have learned empirically during the last year or so that using darker coffee variants causes me less heartburn.

These packages you mention are not suitable for the typical use cases of the finite element method. There are some packages in the Julia ecosystem that may be suitable. I have no recent experience on using them though.

Thanks for the hint, I'll check it out. I'm using v4l2loopback already for feeding OBS output to Teams/Zoom so I'm familiar with the process.

I wasn't even sure which of them I'm running even though I've been remote teaching for almost a year, i.e. frequently sharing my screen:

> [user@laptop:~]$ echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

> wayland

Apparently it's not as bad as it seems! However, now that I think of it, I haven't been able to share the entire screen and must add one application at a time to OBS. Maybe I've gotten used to this. At least I won't accidentally show something that I'm not supposed to.

I have used NixOS only for a year so I'm no expert but I try to answer.

The config file has this line:

  imports = [ ./hardware-configuration.nix ];

This file hardware-configuration.nix is typically generated semi-automatically during the installation. It has stuff like

  fileSystems."/" =
  { device = "/dev/disk/by-uuid/14b5b22f-6cd2-4da5-a9a5-6ee74b76509d";
    fsType = "ext4";
  };

  fileSystems."/boot" =
  { device = "/dev/disk/by-uuid/7D69-81E5";
    fsType = "vfat";
  };

AFAIK you can include these details in configuration.nix if you happen to know them. But most of the time these are so hardware-specific details that you don't want to write them manually. Does it make sense?
