Unity 2019 LTS is here!

Improved workflows and maximum stability - this is #Unity2019LTS.

Posted to Twitter, but seems relevant to a STEM instance.

Maxwell said...
1)∇.D = ρ
2)∇.B = 0
3)∇xE = -∂B/∂t
4)∇xH = J +∂D/∂t
and then there was Light

Happy Birthday James C. Maxwell!

@globcoco @freemo This could really help anyone who is studying via distance learning for whatever reason.

It is easy to lose your way, (esp during the current pandemic) due to lack of social or general contact with others.

All kicking off in London,protesters were meant to be out by 17:00 hrs

London protests: Demonstrators clash with police
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-53031072

#bbcnews, London, #protests,

While they are all in London protesting, and people debate (or rather argue and shout in to the either) on Twitter and No doubt facebook,

Contrasting to here on the Fediverse.

Here on Mastodon, we are discussing how to add tags to posts and I am commenting on a Astronomy post suggesting people look for alternative images to illustrate Hubbles Tuning fork galaxy classification system. Oh we are discussion other intellectual stuff too.

@design_RG @namark

Cool thanks.

@design_RG @namark

hmm, just added some hashtags to the discourse forum for Publications and they don't appear as links,. Am I doing this correctly ?

https://discourse.qoto.org/t/scientific-paper-publlication-platform/287

@namark @design_RG If it helps I have put a link to arXiv on the forum, so people can go there directly if need be.

is there a way to notify people who search on here for arXiv that they should perhaps check out the forum link ?

@design_RG i agree there is a lot of scroll through, which is a problem as you can easily miss something.

@design_RG I am mostly following the Physics arXiv.

If people want to check for any arXiv updates they just need to search for @arXiv anyway so its not really a problem for me.

@design_RG I am following arXiv however I agree, some sort of daily digest may be better to reduce the traffic a little.

I will check out if I see something interesting.

@freemo Yeah, just looking at Twitter, it seems all sorts of things are kicking off in London at least,

I did read that if you put the history of the universe (or is it the earth?) on a clock face we have been here as humans for only a few seconds using that analogy.

Meanwhile China is rising, as are other countries, I think the west will soon be pretty much irrelevant. I say that because the west is simply collapsing as it can't handle it's own history and move forward.

Recent OU course on Living without Oil, cites that Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRIC) are the rising economies, I think we add Africa to that now (BRICA),

I am writing a blog post to try and promote both qoto as a social media platform for STEM and the discourse forum

https://personaljournal.ca/y7bajnqheu

Hopefully this post can help to promote what we are doing here, but also not imply that I am in some way running the whole thing, People have this tendency to make assumptions and not ask, or even when you tell them, they fail to get things.

In the first instance the post will be just published, but I will share it and hopefully be able to include text with any share link to help explain further.

I have also added a blunt statement at the end about not asking about facebook,

Hope this helps. ;

@schestowitz And the people just sit by and let it happen as it is easy to blame the government.

@schestowitz Time for zukerberg to grow up.

Mastodon Apps

On the https://joinmastodon.org/ page there is a link to a page with info on Mastodon Apps could I suggest this link also appears on the qoto.org front page please,

Partly as people may not know how to find the other site if we are directing people here as a STEM focussed instance.
