Is this an event/meeting coming up? Or is it supposed to be all online. Can't really seem to get much information on "Practical Python for Astronomers" from the site. It may just be me missing something...

Doesn't seem to be loading for me. Just the PlayCanvas logo. Not seeing any errors in JS console. Using Chrome Version 41.0.2272.104 (64-bit).

EDIT: Tried another game from playcanvas.com and I get a banner saying 'This page requires a browser that supports WebGL.' However, it is enabled.

This is just an FYI for the developer, but is probably just a problem on my end.

Was working for about ten minutes. But now isn't showing any answers, thus marking all answers as wrong.

EDIT: Definitely a fun game and great concept though!

Hello, World 11 years ago

As many others, I often get frustrated when working through different problems. But I find taking a break and doing 'outdoor activities' such as backpacking and rock climbing gives my mentality a break. Afterwards, when I go back to tackling my problem, I feel refreshed. However, I don't only do this when I get frustrated with a problem, but after I complete one too.

Taking breaks to 'get back in touch with nature' while doing something so technically involved tremendously helps my workflow.

Interesting.. still working for me, even in incognito mode (just to make sure it wasn't only working for my google account). Either way, just google the title as someone else said, and it will get around the paywall. Sorry!

Regex Crossword 12 years ago

I learned regex this way about a year ago. First I went through the tutorials on http://regexone.com/, then started working the puzzles to burn it in. Really easy and useful once you understand it!

tl:dr People who have never been addicted to anything and don't take the time to talk to addict to find out what is really going on are ignorant.

It's sad when people are witch hunted like this. Not taking the time to see what is really going on. Being ignorant and only focusing on one thing. My fiance is a recovering addict who happens to be on Suboxone. As controversial as it is, it still helps tremendously. Anyone who actually takes the time to talk to people like this will find themselves wrapped up in a very complex and interesting story. There are some who do heavy drugs and end up ruining their lives or worse, dying. However, there are a few who use, and have it completely under control. Based solely on this article, one can see that this man, Mr. Aaron, had/has his addiction under control and only wants to be left alone to handle it himself. But when it comes to addicts, most look down on them and see them as scum. Many believe addiction is a disease, and if that is the case, one wouldn't look down on someone with Aspergers. They would help.

I've read multiple articles on people doing this. Practice is the best way to learn. Admittedly, I've tried and failed on this before. I love seeing people succeed and become better at their practice using this method. It can only serve as inspiration for others. Thanks and congrats!
