Just finished giving my talk about upgrading physics labs using smart devices, representing both @CityTechNews and @UniPadova at #AAPTSM22

I also had tons of fun presenting a poster on the topic earlier this week. Lots of great questions and awesome conversations at both events!

So here's why I bought a receipt printer:

Every time one of my GitHub repos gets a new issue, I now get a physical ticket printed out on my desk 🪄

[NASA Webb Telescope @NASAWebb]

Due to the precision of our launch and our first two mid-course corrections, our team has determined that Webb should have enough fuel to allow support of science operations for significantly more than a 10-year science lifetime! 💫 https://t.co/1e3sWlynPI
