Starting #epistropydev with this toot. Search the hashtag for updates on the development process of my app/framework/library #epistropy written in #rustlang with planned #python scripting support.

Epistropy is an approach at reusable #notetaking, which builds up a personal #wiki, that can be used for more efficient #knowledge retrieval | #visualization | #creativeThinking | #communication | #learning
with a simple #markup language at it's base ( inspired by #markdown & #latex )

The name #epistropy is a combination of #episteme (knowledge) and #entropy (a measure for information), which are the two main concepts behind it's conception at aiming to condense knowledge.

I've had the rough idea for this project ever since I got into philosophy some 15 years ago. During my time studying physics at university the ideas manifested more and more, mainly because of frustration with rehashing the same concepts over and over in every textbook. Actual designing only started 2018

here's a #quantummechanics video with a freudian slip of a theoriticians view on #experimental physicists

oh nice, a final #veritasium video for the year

Now #china has their own system demonstrating quantum supremacy. Anyone knows whether this is more significant than what #google has achieved lately?

the #programming language #rust | #rustlang gets an increasing userbase in the #science community. So much in fact, that even the journal #nature has published an article on the topic:

https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-03382-2

it's quite a natural fit, since scientists aren't the best coders. So while rust has a steep learning curve, you can still get results with speeds of C/C++ comparably fast without living in fear of segfaults (that is if the right libraries are available).

#hollowknight #speedrun s have been beaten at last. Now on to steel heart...

min_const_generics are planned for stabilization with #rust 1.50 in February 2021!

One thing that this feature unlocks is the possibility to have a more powerful version of the
#C array that is integrated into the rust typesystem

another awesome video by #realengineering, this time covering the functionality of #mobile #communication bringing yet another explanation why 5G towers aren't dangerous. Not that any of the consipracy guys will be convinced by this. The core of the video is the technical background anyways.
