Took a sneak peek at our new optics bay, looks like the first rack to hold all the equipment is almost ready to go up @andreastoellner @swaitukaitis

Started packing the first box for moving our lab to the new lab building @ISTAustria... Only another 60ish to go 😅
Still plenty of time to get some results before we need to pack up the experiments

Oops, I think it's broken already (or the particle was lost)... Should have brought my laptop to make changes
English
Created a bot to post images from the experiment so we can all see if there is a particle still trapped @swaitukaitis @andreastoellner
Now I can watch the experiment while on holiday😁

@LeonReteig @TomRhysMarshall I remember taking an introductory programming course where they had us do something similar. I don't think people were surprised because we'd first learnt about algorithms for random number generators and didn't yet have expectations that the generator would be randomly seeded
English
@TomRhysMarshall When I was teaching an undergrad Matlab course I did exactly this exercise live with the class. Though IIRC, students were not as surprised about this behaviour as I thought they would be:). I guess it's not that it doesn't make sense; it's just dangerous if you don't know...

@swaitukaitis idea for our group's celebrations?
David Schneider@schneiderneuro
With every celebratory bottle of champagne, we pop the cork at this ceiling tile, leaving a little dent each time. Each dent gets signed and dated. Super proud of this obviously successful group of scientists and their very expensive champagne habit!

Experiment update: Everything has now been delivered for the experiment and I've started assembling things!😁Looking to submit an abstract to a conference with this photo of our sample chamber... still a work in progress

Dust particles from the windowsill held in our paperclip Paul trap (testing out the 10kV amplifier while we wait for other components to arrive)

One month status update: I've turned my table into a jungle of cables, but we've achieved levitation (just not the optical kind... yet)
English
A nice empty optical table, a perfect place to build a new optical tweezers experiment to explore Tribocharging with the @swaitukaitis group! Excited to start unpacking all the new toys 😁

My talk for @SPIEevents #SPIEOpticsPhotonics with @halina_physics & @VolpeResearch describing how we use machine learning to speed up optical tweezers simulations is online/available on-demand part of the (free!) online digital forum.

Is it just me or are all the spam science conferences in Paris or Zurich? #ScienceTwitter #phdchat

Taking a break today, so I thought I would learn how to convert speech to text (and text to Semaphores) in Python github.com/ilent2/speech_…
Almost ready for my production of Wuthering Heights brought to you by the International Guide to Semaphore Code😛

@mighty_lasagna @DaveVescio Bandwidth alone might not be the best measure, depending on where in the network the bottleneck is. If most of the streaming services use edge competing or do things like Netflix ( google.com/amp/s/www.netw… ) gaming or VPNs might still be a bigger drain on the network

BREAKING NEWS: Video game players are urged to play at 'reasonable times' to avoid putting an extra strain on internet networks during the coronavirus outbreak. Online gaming is 'the biggest threat to internet bandwidth' these next few weeks.

Less than a year until I should submit my PhD thesis, time to procrastinate... Had a go at putting together a CV website isaac.isuniversal.com and finally learnt how HTML flex layouts work so it should hopefully display nicely on mobile and larger screens
