Students have always used automatic translation to send me emails. Usually it was Google Translate or whatever Japanese tools they used. They were both terrible at translating Japanese language used by students into proper English, but at least Google-translate-English is easy to translate into […]

I got invited to give a guest lecture at my local university's machine vision class about my tree core scanning project and how it uses machine vision. This will be my first time being invited to give a talk someplace.

The user interface of FORGE. On the left side consisting of 75% of the screen is an in focus picture of a tree core sample as part of the live video feed of Forge. On the right side is a list of collapsible menus. Starting from the top is the titlebar which says "FORGE" below that is a menu section titled "Control" it contains a variety of buttons for moving and homing the 3D printer that Forge is based upon. In addition there is text for the step size and current X, Y, and Z position. The next section is titled "Automation" and has 3 buttons labelled "Start", "Stop", and "Pause". The next section is labelled "Camera Control" and contains buttons for taking photos, auto focusing, toggling the machine vision on and off, along with setting a filter to filter out hot pixels. The next section is "Sample Management" in this there are buttons labelled "Go to Sample" along with a plus and minus button that select samples 1 through 20. Below that is a scrolling section that contains the list of 20 samples with check boxes to mark which ones to scan, and names for each individual sample.

Multi sample imaging is now fully integrated into Forge's GUI! This makes it the cheapest and highest resolution multi tree core scanner out there!

The GUI of FORGE. It has a camera settings menu shown in addition to the right side bar and camera view. The camera view is the same yellow green color of mountain dew.

Fun part about making camera GUIs is that you can make everything the color of mountain dew if you so wish. In the meantime, I finished the camera settings menu for FORGE. Now I can move onto programming in multi sample scanning.

One of my FAVES. #teacher #educator #edusky #academic #acadamia #burntout

Either way, this is exciting as it doesn't mean waiting hours for a sample to get imaged, and it opens the pathway to quickly scanning multiple large samples in succession which was the original goal of this project.

He's why I flat out refused to take the academic exams for Hunter, BX Science, et al. All I knew was, i was still broken from 4th grade, and that pressure like that would drive me to unaliving. So at age 12 i set my feet like a mule. I wasnt going to let the bastards get ME. #acadamia

Which is why all academics - understood as knowledgeable citizens & educators in a #democracy - are authorised to (arguably also compelled to) speak out against injustice, genocide, ethnic-cleansing, fascism, censorship of fellow academics when all this is unfolding 24/7 on our screens.

Good morning BlueSky. This is the view from my office as I apply for a summer fellow position!

Got yelled at in Academic today because I told the crypto professors AND the math professors that their numbers are arbitrary and they are philosophers peddling worthless junk bonds.

Apparently I’m the Tucker Carlson of modern number theory.
