  1. After 4 days on the east coast I feel fully rehydrated. #NewMexico #Dry #Washington #Sauna
  2. Rain and thunder at 8.30 in the morning. Come on New Mexico you can do better than this (though the rain is of course always welcome).
  3. Love my new Arduino. Really addictive. You just want to MAKE stuff.
  4. @modernscientist Good recovery!!!
  5. Arduino (UNO R3) arrived. Playtime!!!
  6. @modernscientist If it works: Prototype for a lowcost detection device.
  7. Waiting for my Arduino...
  8. @ProteinWrangler Nice ones!
  9. Dear New Mexico drivers: Indicators are not just decoration on your car. Use 'em!!!
  10. Try to debug Python code for hours then realize the original Perl code is buggy. Especially nasty when resulting values dont differ much...
  11. Looking into Arduino. How cool is that for rapid prototyping? My play mode was just triggered. arduino.cc #arduino
  12. There really needs something to be done to the way we do peer-review. #politics #buddy-networks #ignorance #youarewrongbecauseyouarnnotme
  13. A really good one on Density Functional Theory (and its free access): dx.doi.org/10.1002/qua.22…
  14. I am sure that you can program Perl code that is readable but the script I am dealing with at the moment…O…M…G!!! (oh and it even uses goto)
  15. @modernscientist Definitly, about to start a larger project, so less casual scripting and more serious development. Hopefully still fun.
  16. Deeper into the rabbit hole and spending some time to improve my #python skills.
  17. What happens when you tweet the words "medical tourism"? Exactly, @Med_Tourism follows you within 30 seconds.
