@Gargron ahaha true

Children at home becoming fascinated by Rayleigh Taylor instabilities. Who wouldn't be?

That's the inside of the Virgo gravitational wave detectors in Pisa. It looks like a 3.5km long metal pipe, and it basically is, but together with Ligo in the US it detected a displacement of order 1e-18 meters due to the passage of gravitational waves from colliding black holes and it opened a whole new era in #astronomy #science

I now supervise 3 young (<25yr) students on different numerical projects, from master to PhD, we exchange and discuss codes daily.

It is quite striking that these new "native digital" (term allowed for people born in ~2000?) actually have HUGE gaps, and it's not their fault (neither is mine).

Examples:
- "it doesn't work" - with 0 attached error message, plot, information.

- assuming a .exe compiled on a machine would just work elsewhere (like an app?).
