The new mizer version 2.4.0 is now on CRAN. I have blogged about it here: blog.mizer.sizespectrum.org/posts/2022-12-…. The highlights in this version: `setResource()` to change the resource dynamics without changing the steady state and `matchGrowth()` to match mizer growth rates to observations.

@mridulkthomas @fryderheim and in Danish. Also the title one of Tove Ditlevsens most famous books nytimes.com/2021/01/19/boo…

@fryderheim Incredible.

You okay, Germany?
