Alright, I did some HDR stuff and I think I managed to pull some nice details out of our good friend M31. I also have a decent amount of dual narrowband data, so I'd love to be able to pop those little red star-forming regions...but how? I've tried a bunch of PixelMath things and haven't managed to get it without making the whole image overly red. TIA for your suggestions!

Hello, Las Vegas! I’m here for #reinvent2022. If you’re in town and in the #cloud, I’d love to learn from your experience and share a bit of mine!

Still time to register for "Physics in Advent", an advent calendar with 24 simple experiments and physics mysteries to spark interest in #physics ... and you can win prizes, too! physics-in-advent.org #PhysicsInAdvent #PhysikImAdvent

9/ We even have a supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way galaxy! It's name is Sgr A* ("Sagittarius A-star") and it's about 4 million solar masses, which makes it medium-sized in supermassive black hole terms.

The Event Horizon Telescope took a picture of it in radio light last year, and it is such a gorgeous lumpy orange donut 🤩 #OurBlackHole #blackHoles #BlackHoleFriday #astronomy #astrophysics #space

New paper on the arXiv! My PhD student Vincent Schmeits and I studied a discrete-time quantum walk on an embedded graph. A lot of firsts: it’s Vincent’s first paper and it’s my first paper with my QuSoft affiliation. Vincent also wrote code to make amazing diagrams, so we can visualise the walk, like on this toroidal grid. Here’s the arXiv link: arxiv.org/abs/2211.12841

Okay, I've been trying to collect #tech people to #follow for #FollowFriday. Sorry it is not really exhaustive - probably I left out a lot of good accounts I'm following.

Black Friday? More like super duper colorful Friday! At least in Sandy, Oregon. #photography #pdx

Today’s #FollowFriday is for funny accounts, because I think we can all agree that the Fediverse should be fun.

Oh I guess I should do an #introduction.

I’m Chris a long time Open Source contributor, disabled veteran (pretty sure I am one of the first people to Linux in the USAF), long time multiple web site creator, I ran DevOps’ish, I work on containery bits at AWS (nothing here reflects the views of my employer).

I am here to share information and opinions I find interesting and have conversations with y’all!

Technology exists to improve human existence.

Happy Tooting!

The "WORLD of QUANTUM" will meet next year in Madrid (May 23-25) ! Exceptional list of speakers announced! the place for Frontier Science, Technology & Industries to meet- quantumconf.eu/2023/

Today I will give a workshop on #livecoding using #FoxDot. I'm very excited but also very nervous. Huge thanks to @yaxu for inspiration and guidance, and also to the friendly folks in the #FoxDot Telegram group. Wish me luck!

I’m puzzled:

Is a programming language a language? 🧐

Please also indicate whether you consider yourself a linguist.

Grateful for boosts to increase reach 🙏
