We often use discretization to approximate continuous laws of physics, but it also goes the other way:
You can use continuous equations to approximate the behavior of discrete systems!
Here we'll see how electrical circuits can be modeled using the Laplace equation Δφ=0. [1/n]
Releasing the first waveguide weekly integrated photonics research TLDR this week.
If anyone wants to join me talking about recent news in photonics, reviewing research and the newest papers on the ArXiv, you can follow me on https://t.co/hwrFXWLjoP.
We nailed it.
During XB-1’s second supersonic flight, we partnered with @NASA to take this Schlieren image of XB-1 pushing through the air at supersonic speeds. Here’s the shot, captured by NASA teams on the ground. It documents the changing air density around XB-1 and the resulting shock wave—making the invisible visible.
Earth rise, Earth set, repeat! Blue Ghost's third and final lunar orbit maneuver is complete! Early this morning, our #GhostRiders performed a 16-second burn with our RCS thrusters to enter a near-circular low lunar orbit. Up next, we'll perform a 19-second Descent Orbit Insertion at our 100-km perilune to begin our descent to Blue Ghost's final destination, Mare Crisium, on March 2.
Footage below captured by Blue Ghost shortly after our second lunar orbit maneuver. More to come soon! #BGM1
We’re programming a chip fab
In modern languages!!! No windows 95.
And there’s a lot to do
Data, controls , UI, automation, more
The most fun software is with hardware
Are you in the Bay Area?
Nothing worse than going to submit a letter of recommendation only to learn that there are 10 ranking questions and 20 specific text boxes to fill out. Please, please, please just let me upload a letter of recommendation. I am begging you. No one has time for this.
A prospective PhD student should look for a kind and understanding mentor, not necessarily the most brilliant one or someone working at a prestigious institution. A kind mentor will focus on your progress and work to uplift you.
