Any #DataScience people here?
I have a huge #BeaconDB dataset here, recorded with #NeoStumbler.
I would like to play around with it a bit, display densities of radio devices on a map.
I know #QGis, is it reasonably easy to import a CSV file there, assign the coordinates to some columns etc?
Alternatively I know a bit of #R, but #RStudio is #Electron now, so that could get a hassle XD
Btw, there is a #Fedora #COPR for R-Cran packages, how is the situation on #NixOS?
To me, the best things about it are the keyboard and the screen.
I also like the fact that it's currently my slowest computer, not counting a Raspi zero W (not zero 2) sitting on a shelf somewhere, or assorted microcontroller boards here and there.
If it doesn't run well on the PBP, then to me, it's just not good software.
Signal (and I guess any #Electron apps) are particularly absymal.
I did not know yet this is a thing. I am scared, curious and impressed at the same time. 
I mostly enjoyed PHP and Laravel in the past. 
From a certain perspective, I see the value as enablement for developers delivering to new environments while sticking to their stack.
On the other hand, this is even further in the direction of something being used in a way it was not designed for, resulting in a whole lot of other problems.

Super interesting #Electron take. I will admit to being an on-again, off-again hater for a long time but the case here is compelling. https://www.macstories.net/linked/is-electron-really-that-bad/

I've been suspecting that something faster and "easier" than #LaTeX (no hard feelings: TeX is enormously old and has lasted really long!) must be possible -- thank you for confirming that.
I get the utility of web-based collaboration, but ... I really really want a desktop GUI because sending each button press across half the world is *so wasteful*, not to mention privacy issues. The only maintained desktop app costs money, looks spartan and seems to use #Electron

Electron Band Structure in Germanium, My Ass
An #electron trapped in 0.1 nm box give me "wACKy iNflATaBLe aRm flAILinG tUBe mAN" vibes. I can't stop giggling. The initial state is a ground state infinite square-well where you suddenly double the box size. Summed over 50 Fourier components.

I need to return to using a native editor.
The One-Electron Universe Theory is an idea proposed by physicist John Archibald Wheeler
in a phone call to Richard Feynman in 1940. It suggests that every electron in the universe is actually the same single electron, traveling back and forth through time.
5e lancement de l'année réussi pour Rocket Lab et #Electron. 8 satellites infrarouges de surveillance des feux de forêt ont été placés sur orbite héliosynchrone pour OroraTech

... that is, on monitor 2 I can resize the app window, max/min, click on tabs, and close the app. On monitor 1, I can't.
If I unplug my laptop from the 2nd monitor, apps work normally. The symptoms appear to be that #Electron can't detect the mouse if it's in the "wrong" window.
Ideas where to look?
