I wrote an eBook about magnetic implants!

If you think the updates are important definitely want the update.

Haha, it’s just that their KDP format is not at all usable for a book with complex formating and you are given no other option don’t take it personally @NiamhAstra :wink:

Got my hands on the book. And while short, it was very enjoyable.

Now I’m probably going to try to find an installer for a Titan and try to make up my mind on weather or not to get one.

Thanks! It’s been a long time and there are definitely more things I would include now if I were to do it again :thinking:

Since most of my academic research on the subject is not fully finished and publishable because of “ethical concerns” from the peer review and other gatekeeping bs I think I will release a whole lot of data and software publicly at some point. I just need to find the time to sort everything in a repo…
@amal any chance you have a Leap Motion or could aquire one for DT? Because I think there’s some stuff in there you should try out :wink:

I’m glad that I didn’t take that particular career path TBH. Gosh, I hate quite a few things about academia.

I would certainly like to read your research even if it’s not peer reviewed. :robot_cyborg:

I presented my home diy research and got an opportunity for a 6 month research with unlimited funding in an IT lab so I thought why not? Free stuff’s good. Publishing was secondary for me.
I could have kept the job at the end but I fully agree with you. Academia somehow turned curiosity into a competitive pay-to-win club of and I don’t like it :sweat_smile: While structure and rigor is necessary I don’t think a system from the 1800s is relevant today.

Well, it took me an entire day to find and organize everything and I probably missed stuff but here it is: 3 years of my life on and off working on magnets all public.
Have a read, copy some code or ask questions. If I can inspire even a single person then it’s all worth it.

None if you choose the personal option instead of commercial.
