plotting

plot random mundane stuff its fun

heres a plot of my mood rated 1-10 over time for the past half a year (rolling average with a window of 7 days)

always good to practice processing data and visualizing it

spiking neural networks

writing up some code in rust and python to replicate basic eeg activity using spiking neural networks

it uses a lattice of leaky integrate and fire models to act as biological neurons

unlike a classical neural network, this system has a sense of time

on the right you can see the voltage of the membrane potential of each neuron change over time

on the left you can see the concentration of signaling neurotransmitters in each neuronal synapse that contribute to how the membrane potential changes over time

extremely basic modeling but it looks neat

(neuronal calcuations done in rust, visualization in python and matplotlib)

turing pattern

programmed a turing pattern generator in rust (using this as reference)

it's a cool way to simulate certain biochemical processes

never knew cellular automata had practical applications thats pretty neat, would recommend reading up on them if u like partial diff eqs

rust server project

i learned how to do basic multiprocessing with message passing, the basics of how tcp works, and how to write a terminal based ui (using https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui in case anyone is interested) just to see funky lines on my screen

(its slow because my laptop cannot handle obs if its life depended on it)

its just a simple terminal based app that just displays how much of the cpu a client is using and some basic ping statistics

it was utterly painfully learning how deadlock works and i did not have a clue what i was doing but i had fun so yea would recommend

Hey sorry, your boyfriend is a single chain polymer now. Just jiggling happily... no he still has not equilibrated yet. sorry

the frameworks are winning

me trying to learn something new versus 16 billion different frameworks and libraries to choose from

sometimes i dont like talking about projects with people because theyll be like "hey why dont you monetize that?" or "hey why dont you turn that into a business?" like no man it being free to use for anybody is like half the reason why i made that thing

not everything made has to have monetary value sometimes u can just be silly for the sake of being silly or make for the sake of making let me do opensource software in peace ok thanks

I think tumblr should let us post diagrammes and graphs and tables. We can be trusted with math. I promiss.

do it rust is fun and it’s a pretty gay programming language tbh

I told myself I would never use rust.

But pandora's box of borrowing variables is tempting me

cargo

me staring at my screen for 5 minutes waiting for rust to compile

(i have forgotten to turn on incremental compilation)

leetcode

i dont get practicing by using leetcode over projects why cry over one small problem when you can cry over a dozen interwoven ones at the same time? i thought computer scientists liked efficiency

#codeblr #coding #programming #progblr #multiprocessing is when you cry over multiple problems in parallel

timing

i am only able to write code at 3 am when pointers suddenly make sense and i can move on from boilerplate

coincidentally the meds also seem to wear off around then
