https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envsoft.2024.106244 <-- shared paper
--
“HIGHLIGHTS
• A memory-efficient watershed delineation algorithm was introduced.
• The new algorithm uses a node-skipping depth-first search to save memory.
• Both input and output data are stored in a shared matrix to reduce required memory.
• It performed 95% faster than its CPU benchmark algorithm using 33% less memory.
• It can solve 50% larger problems than what the CPU benchmark algorithm can handle..."

Anselm Kiefer (born 8 March 1945) is a German painter and sculptor. His works incorporate materials such as straw, ash, clay, lead an shellac. Kiefer develops themes of German history and the horrors of the Holocaust…

Kiefer's use of straw in his work represents energy. He claims this is due to straw's physical qualities, including the colour gold and its release of energy and heat when burned. The resulting ash makes way for new creation and rebirth.

Large-scale strategies have been the best thing to happen to biology, leading to the discovery of many new molecular mechanisms or phenomena.

What is frightening, however, is that in many cases it is virtually impossible to know whether the conclusions drawn from such data are robust or whether they are due to undetected artefacts. Often, neither the authors nor the reviewers are able to detect such major flaws...

What strategies do political trolls use to drive collective action? How effective are they? ✊🏾

Our ICWSM paper conducted a large scale data analysis on this.

Lovely review of a recent course I led about #largescale #publicengagement: "I learned so much in this course, I walked away feeling energized and inspired as both a practitioner/facilitator, and a citizen. Thank you all for your time and energy and sharing your unique thoughts and perspectives. And of course a big thanks to Susanna, you provided so many interesting insights and experiences. Hoorah!"

Supersized Power Bank Built From an EV Battery

Perhaps one day in the future when our portable electronics are powered by inexhaustible dilithium crystals, we'll look back fondly on the 2020s when we carried around power banks to revive our flagging tech. Oh how we laughed as we reached for those handy plastic bricks only to find them drained already of juice, we'll say. [Handy Geng] won't be joining us though, because he's made the ultimate power bank, a 27,000 AH leviathan that uses an electric car battery for storage and supplies mains power through a brace of sockets on its end.

The vehicle battery is mounted on a wheeled trolley along with what appears to be either the in-car charging unit or a mains inverter. The whole thing is styled to look like a huge version of a pocket power bank, with a curved sheet metal shell and white hardboard end panels. The demonstration pushes the comedy further, as after charging a huge pile of phones he replenishes an electric scooter before settling sown by a chilly-looking river for a spot of fishing -- along with his washing machine, TV, and electric hotpot for a spot of cooking. We appreciate the joke, and as we know him of old we're looking forward to more.

Thanks [Fosselius] for the tip.
