go banana slugs!

I'll just leave this here:

Can you expand on that please?

Love xonsh!! And gets more and more stable with every release.

it's the shell I always wanted. And cross platform to boot.

Alias ls -l?

aliases['ls'] = "ls -l"

Oops no I don't want that any more:

del aliases['ls']

Add dir to path:

$PATH.append('/foo/bar')

Just the awesome python syntax sugar and readbility right in the

May I never right a bash script again.

recently minted Chemistry PhD here -- Thirded.

Grad school was one of my best decisions. I went to a great school that was what I call the Goldilocks size, big enough to have a great faculty, equipment, and decent funding but small enough so that collaboration was the norm and the crazy horror stories of maniacal hours and/or cutthroat competition were normally self induced. My PI was an incredibly good guy and still a close friend. I met my business partner and co-founder while working with him the lab and we're now building a company that expands on the work we did in grad school.

That being said, I saw plenty of people not having the experience I did. This was almost always because i) they didn't really like research and didn't know it until they were there or ii) they picked a PI (PI = professor/boss) that was a really bad match for their work style and personality. Finding a lab & PI that matches your personal expectations about the PhD I would say is more important than the research focus. Don't choose something you'll hate learning about but ultimately the PhD can be more about learning how to teach yourself than the skills you learn during research.

YMMV

saw this after posting, so epicly useful. Alreadying thinking of some nice concise, explanatory custom Exception descriptions..

true but it seems that the performance gap is pretty huge and the new f-strings actually come in on top for string substitution:

This article is kind of whack... Yes modern superconducting materials are getting warmer and warmer. No we're not at room temp now. No there's not a clear path to simulating band gaps for extended structure materials with the quantum computing..

yes, then it will be easier to avoid diets that assume our digestive system hasn't had any evolutionary pressure since the neanderthals...

taking frontend framework advice from a website that is arguably uglier and more poorly laid out than the bulk of geocities pages is a tough pill to swallow.

not working for me either. made an issue (#39) on the repo.

side note: Wiki mobile view renders quite nicely on a desktop for reading

as well as microsoft's baked right into office Ink to Math convert

yeah but that ambient synth/string music sure is pleasant.
