Seems that #pyhf has finally creeped over the 200 citations on INSPIRE recently. :) 🎉

Nice little milestone for us all to celebrate, @lukasheinrich.com, @giordonstark.com, @kylecranmer.bsky.social. Cheers!

NEW: NSF will be kicked out of their building. Announcement will be made tomorrow by HUD Sec. and Governor of VA. HUD will take over the NSF building over the next two years.

NSF staffer: "There is no planning for NSF, no identified future location, appropriation for a new building or a move."

Due to maintenance, Research.gov (including access to NSF-PAR, GRFP, PES, and ETAP) will be unavailable from Fri., 4/25 at 10:00 PM ET to Sat., 4/26 at 1:00 PM ET. NSF apologizes for any inconvenience.

🚨 Practical URGENT tip for NSF grantees:

Out of an abundance of caution, I would right now go into Research.gov and…

1. Download your NSF award letters.

2. Print PDF your annual reports.

3. Screenshot the status table for annual reports.

NSF is planning maintenance tomorrow to Research.gov

I'm on the SkypeAScientist list -- or I was. Deaf particle physicist.

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people:

Hey, guess what? This 🤡 is still doing the same thing at another colloquium. #APS did nothing. #Snowmass did nothing. Yet the #Physics community continues to give him a platform to spout his anti-accessibility rhetoric.

let's plan for hunkering down in the middle of a snowy cabin somewhere in the mountains of Colorado and make it happen over a weekend?

That's literally your job. What are you doing? #CharlesNotInCharge

can you imagine if we throw AnalysisBase in conda-forge? 🤣

it was horrible. the sun. the sand. the wind. Nobody was miserable.

giordon is standing by a chair with the audience in full view on the right hand side in two rows of tables. everyone including giordon is looking at the projector screen showing the pyhf tutorial website.

finished another #pyhf tutorial - this time at UH Manoa (University of Hawai'i).

Cross-section measurements for the production of a $W$-boson in association with high-transverse-momentum jets in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$= 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector A set of measurements for the production of a $W$-boson in association with high-transverse-momentum jets is presented using 140 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of...

Hey @matplotlib what do we call this and how can we make this plot? https://images.app.goo.gl/Y9gWutyXJkcnZJSM7

Truly the best captioning that money can buy.

it's hard to say if this is a session break or not (I assume so) but the autocraptions don't indicate anything... If there were actual Deaf attendees there in person, they would not be able to rely on this for any sort of announcements that are important for logistics or safety.

In case anyone is wondering, @ENERGY sponsored @CERN FCC week in the US is providing this as "captions"

Pro tip: got a PDF file that's just too big to upload for an application? Here's a ghostscript command that does the heavy-lifting for you:

gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dPDFSETTINGS=/printer -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -dBATCH -sOutputFile=output.pdf input.pdf

I'm shocked by the disparity between the quality of @StanfordMed and the (lack of) quality of the #ASL staff interpreters they have for their #Deaf patients. https://t.co/pKGJMEmaEw

This was a nice surprise from @united and the pilot :)

One of the best experiences/moments for me in the past few days was to meet @MarieCoppola68 in persona, and to find out that we have some overlapping interests in improving policy for the intersection of science funding and disability.

And out on arXiv! https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.08347
