    1. When the Uncertainty Principle Goes up To 11: Or How to Explain Quantum Physics with Heavy Metal by Philip Moriarty There are deep and fascinating links between heavy metal and quantum physics. No, really! While teaching at the University of Nottingham, physicist Philip Moriarty noticed something odd, a surprising number of his students were heavily into metal music. Colleagues, too: a Venn diagram of physicists and metal fans would show a shocking amount of overlap. What's more, it turns out that heavy metal music is uniquely well-suited to explaining quantum principles. In When the Uncertainty Principle Goes to Eleven, Moriarty explains the mysteries of the universe's inner workings via drum beats and feedback: You'll discover how the Heisenberg uncertainty principle comes into play with every chugging guitar riff, what wave interference has to do with Iron Maiden, and why metalheads in mosh pits behave just like molecules in a gas. If you're a metal fan trying to grasp the complexities of quantum physics, a quantum physicist baffled by heavy metal, or just someone who'd like to know how the fundamental science underpinning our world connects to rock music, this book will take you, in the words of Pantera, to "A New Level." For those who think quantum physics is too mind-bendingly complex to grasp, or too focused on the invisibly small to be relevant to our full-sized lives, this funny, fascinating book will show you that physics is all around us . . . and it rocks.Call Number: Main Circulating Stacks QC174.123 .M67 2018ISBN: 9781944648527Publication Date: 2018-07-31

    2. Particles, Fields, Quanta: From Quantum Mechanics to the Standard Model of Particle Physics by Gerhard Ecker This book provides an introduction to the current state of our knowledge about the structure of matter. Gerhard Ecker describes the development of modern physics from the beginning of the quantum age to the standard model of particle physics, the fundamental theory of interactions of the microcosm. The focus lies on the most important discoveries and developments, e.g. of quantum field theory, gauge theories and the future of particle physics. The author also emphasizes the interplay between theory and experiment, which helps us to explore the deepest mysteries of nature. "Particles, Fields, Quanta" is written for everyone who enjoys physics. It offers high school graduates and students of physics in the first semesters an encouragement to understand physics more deeply. Teachers and others interested in physics will find useful insights into the world of particle physics. For advanced students, the book can serve as a comprehensive preparation for lectures on particle physics and quantum field theory. A brief outline of the mathematical structures, an index of persons with research focuses and a glossary for quick reference of important terms such as gauge theory, spin and symmetry complete the book. From the foreword by Michael Springer: "The great successes and the many open questions this book describes illustrate how immensely complicated nature is and nevertheless how much we already understand of it." The author Gerhard Ecker studied theoretical physics with Walter Thirring at the University of Vienna. His research focus has been on theoretical particle physics, in particular during several long-term visits at CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research in Geneva. In 1986 he was promoted to Professor of Theoretical Physics at the University of Vienna. Since 1977 he has given both basic lectures in theoretical physics and advanced courses on different topics in particle physics, e.g., quantum field theory, symmetry groups in particle physics and renormalisation in quantum field theory.Call Number: Online BookISBN: 9783030144784Publication Date: 2019-04-15

    3. A Conceptual History of Symmetry: From Plato to the Super World by P. Frè This book presents the author's personal historical perspective and conceptual analysis on symmetry and geometry. The author enlightens with modern views the historical process which led to the contemporary vision of space and symmetry that are used in theoretical physics and in particular in such abstract and advanced descriptions of the physical world as those provided by supergravity. The book is written intertwining storytelling and philosophical argumentation with some essential technical material. The author argues that symmetry and geometry are inextricably entangled and their current meaning is the result of a long process of abstraction which was determined through history and can be understood within the analytic system of thought of western civilization that started with the Ancient Greeks. The evolution of geometry and symmetry theory in the last forty years has been deeply and constructively influenced by supersymmetry/supergravity and the allied constructions of strings and branes. Further advances in theoretical physics cannot be based simply on the Galilean method of interrogating nature and then formulating a testable theory to explain the observed phenomena. One ought to interrogate human thought, meaning frontier-line mathematics concerned with geometry and symmetry in order to find there the threads of so far unobserved correspondences, reinterpretations and renewed conceptions.DescriptionThis book presents the author's personal historical perspective and conceptual analysis on symmetry and geometry.

    4. Beyond Weird: Why Everything You Thought You Knew About Quantum Physics is Different by Philip Ball "Anyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it." Since Niels Bohr said this many years ago, quantum mechanics has only been getting more shocking. We now realize that it's not really telling us that "weird" things happen out of sight, on the tiniest level, in the atomic world: rather, everything is quantum. But if quantum mechanics is correct, what seems obvious and right in our everyday world is built on foundations that don't seem obvious or right at all--or even possible. An exhilarating tour of the contemporary quantum landscape, Beyond Weird is a book about what quantum physics really means--and what it doesn't. Science writer Philip Ball offers an up-to-date, accessible account of the quest to come to grips with the most fundamental theory of physical reality, and to explain how its counterintuitive principles underpin the world we experience. Over the past decade it has become clear that quantum physics is less a theory about particles and waves, uncertainty and fuzziness, than a theory about information and knowledge--about what can be known, and how we can know it.  Discoveries and experiments over the past few decades have called into question the meanings and limits of space and time, cause and effect, and, ultimately, of knowledge itself. The quantum world Ball shows us isn't a different world. It is our world, and if anything deserves to be called "weird," it's us.Call Number: Main Circulating Stacks QC174.123 .B36 2018ISBN: 9780226558387Publication Date: 2018-10-18

    2. We recently faced a similar problem and ended up writing our own parser based on ParsCit but using Wapiti instead of CRF++ for the conditional random fields model. Like Mike mentions above, the problem with ML-based parsers is getting good tagged training data; for this we wrote a visual editor that lets you tag the results (and save them as training data). This approach works pretty well for parsing bibliographies. If anyone is interested, we've made both parser and editor available here at anystyle.io.

    1. The metadata in Crossref’s database can sometimes be… spotty*

      HERE! sometimes, data is not good curated by own publishers!

    2. Crossref metadata contains more than just bibliographic metadata. You need to use query.bibliographic if you want to restrict your query to just bibliographic information. Otherwise you may get false positives.

    3. Instead of trying to parse the citation, just search for the record in a database that already has the citation parsed

Esta palabra se usaba igualmente para las tierras amorritas que para el pueblo amorrita en general. Los reinos posteriores solían ser llamados también reinos Amurru. También es el nombre de su dios nacional.

Las ocho caras laterales de la Gran Pirámide Flinders Petrie ya observó, entre otros aspectos morfológicos, que la sección horizontal de la Gran Pirámide tiene forma octogonal, de estrella de cuatro puntas, pues cada una de las caras está compuesta por dos planos, con ligera pendiente hacia el centro, difícilmente apreciable a simple vista por la ausencia casi total del revestimiento, pues solamente se han conservado algunos bloques de piedra caliza, procedentes de las canteras de Tura, en la primera hilada de la cara septentrional. Esta característica y su orientación hacia el Norte geográfico genera en las caras norte y sur un fenómeno de proyección de sombras durante los equinoccios: hacia el amanecer, durante unos minutos, la mitad oeste de las caras norte y sur es iluminada por los rayos del Sol, mientras la mitad este permanece en sombras; hacia el ocaso ocurre al contrario, quedando iluminada la mitad este de las caras norte y sur, mientras la mitad oeste queda en sombras. Es el denominado efecto relámpago.

Sus bases son rectangulares. En cuanto a las dimensiones, sus aristas son la quinta parte de las de Keops y la pendiente de unos 52º. El núcleo interior era escalonado, con un número diferente de gradas para cada una. Las tres pirámides presentan restos del revestimiento que era de piedra caliza pulida, y todas tienen un pasaje interior, cerca del eje central, para acceder a la cámara funeraria.

    1. ShaneNZInsiderAug 3This plugin GitHub - Vinzent03/obsidian-hotkeys-for-templates 52 can act as a pretty solid workaround; set a template per folder, and whenever you hit “new” (default location, or from the file explorer, or via the command palette). For the way I work (single level of folders for different types of notes, all incoming “thinking” notes start in a seedbox) it’s really solid. One bonus of the approach is that I can now open the command palette and type “new def” and I get a command to create a new Definition note in the definition folder with that template applied. tl;dr Have a look at GitHub - Vinzent03/obsidian-hotkeys-for-templates 52 Note: one thing it doesn’t do is apply the template when creating the note from a link in another note. I’ve raised on issue on the Github repo noting this for the developer.

      solucion?

    2. How can I fix this regex so it only extracts APA paper citations (the ones in the references section, not in-text).

    1. Mendeley is a free, web-based tool from Elsevier for managing references, creating bibliographies, and pdf organizer.

      free? but is only web!

    1. The name stands for “clipboard to bibliography (entry)”

      cb2bib=="clipboard 2 bibtex"

    2. This is an example of a pattern which can identify and automatically format MLA-style entries:

      see

    3. results can vary from a useful list of references to a useless mangled text.

      more the second!

    4. Delete the cb2bib_query_tmp_pdf if present, or you won’t be able to download the PDF file for the article if there is a link in the next reference you are going to process.

    1. ecause we can process only a tiny fraction of information available on the Web,we must turn to machines for help in processing and analyzing its contents. Withcurrent technology, machines cannot understand and interpret the meaning of the infor-mation in natural-language form, which is how most Web information is represented today

      In 2021 we are already waiting to obtain something that work!

    1. perhaps Zotero can play the regex games that cb2bib (and ParaTools and other desktop programs) play

      future

    2. CiteSeer is an excellent example (http://dx.doi.org/0.1109/2.769447). Their heuristics take advantage of looking at ALL citations within a paper & also a large database of author names, journal names, journal abbreviations, etc.

    3. there already are some projects for Reference Metadata Extraction. see e.g. http://www.iis.sinica.edu.tw/~myday/slides/Slide2005_IEEE-IRI2005_A_Knowledge-based_Approach_to_Citation_Extraction.ppt, http://www.csie.cyut.edu.tw/~shwu/publication/DSS2007_Reference_Metadata_Extraction_Using_a_Hierarchical_Knowledge_Representation_Framework.pdf http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/iel5/10065/32280/01506448.pdf?arnumber=1506448, http://wing.comp.nus.edu.sg/publications/theses/yongKiatNgThesis.pdf, http://wing.comp.nus.edu.sg/parsCit/, http://paracite.eprints.org/developers/downloads.html also, of course, citeseer does a good job in this

    4. the issue is important to you

      and for me

    1. thomasmid April 9, 2011 i think this comment might fit here: I have 500ish pdfs on my computer and a comparable amount of bib data (for each pdf) stored in zotero. They are not associated yet, but I would like to do so for a new organizational schema. Is it possible to automate the process of right-clicking for "add attachment" and then "attach stored copy of file" for all of them? [for example: bulk upload the pdf's as items to zotero and then ask it to retrieve the metadata from my zotero bibs?]

      same

    2. khazaei March 3, 2010 There is a way for that I realized recently. You put all of your PDF files in a folder or different classified folders and then use this free software: http://www.mendeley.com/ in Mendeley, go to File menu and then add folder ( here you address your folder(s) which your PDFs are in). Mendeley import all bibliographic information in your PDF files. The next step is to export you library as RIS and import it in Zotero. adamsmith March 3, 2010 actually Zotero has a very similar feature - it just wasn't available 2 years ago, when the thread was last active. Select the pdfs, right-click and choose "Retrieve Metadata" - last I heard Mendeley's feature worked a little better and they have some clever ideas of using additional data (including user-provided data), but Zotero does use Google Scholar Results as well as DOIs on the first page to get metadata and that works in a large majority of cases. khazaei March 3, 2010 Thank you Adamsmith, It is great, so we do not need Mendeley any more. http://www.zotero.org/support/retrieve_pdf_metadata

      mendeley vs zotero, for retrieve PDF metadata

    3. It is unclear to me from the documentation how to use this program

      poor doc!

    4. I have a large number of PDF files that I have downloaded over the last several years. Is there a way that I can get the bibliographic information out of these files, into Zotero, and then link or store the PDF with that information?

      same necesity

    5. Currently there's not an automatic way of doing this (and it would be hard to implement since PDFs don't have a common place that citation information is stored).

      a pity

    1. The compilation gives some warnings, no errors, and the programs work fine in Windows 10.

      test

    2. follow the instructions in readme.txt, that is, run ./configure make make install

      make

    3. To compile 64-bit versions of bibutils, you only need to install two packages, gnu make and the gnu compilers. To do so, run pacman -S make pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc

      gcc

    4. rerun pacman -Syu until the system says it is updated

      pacman

    5. I compiled bibutils for Windows 10 home 64 bit using msys2

      see

    6. I have found some windows binaries of the 3.4 version at : http://bibutils.refbase.org/ however they won't run on my 64 bit system

      me too

    1. MSYS has not been updated a long time, MSYS2 is more active

      !

    2. The msys2 wiki is so confusing to noobs like myself

      !

    3. Install a toolchain a) for 64-bit: pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain b) for 32-bit: pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-toolchain This includes GCC (the compiler), GDB (the debugger), and more.

      msys2

  5. www.msys2.org www.msys2.org
    1. pacman -S --needed base-devel mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain

      pacman para gcc

    2. probably want to install some tools and the mingw-w64 GCC to start compiling

      gcc

    3. Update the rest of the base packages with pacman -Su

      actualizar resto

    4. First run pacman -Syu

      actualizar despues de instalar

    5. To provide easy installation of packages and a way to keep them updated it features a package management system called Pacman, which should be familiar to Arch Linux users. It brings many powerful features such as dependency resolution and simple complete system upgrades, as well as straight-forward and reproducible package building. Our package repository contains more than 2400 pre-built packages ready to install.

      ok

    1. Tag incomplete items to find them back and fix them later

      truco

    2. Keep track of recent additions using a saved search

      use

    3. Start quicksearch with ” to trigger advanced search

      util

    1. It is defined with a behavior equivalent to:

      formato defecto=ENGLISH

    1. This function is equivalent to:   asctime(localtime(timer))

      ok

    1. %TISO 8601 time format (HH:MM:SS), equivalent to %H:%M:%S14:55:02

      hora

    2. %FShort YYYY-MM-DD date, equivalent to %Y-%m-%d2001-08-23

      dia

    3. Yellow rows indicate specifiers and sub-specifiers introduced by C99

      cuidado!

    1. mktimeConvert tm structure to time_t (function )

      "componer": diferentes componentes de dia/hora convierte a un unico numero!

    2. localtimeConvert time_t to tm as local time (function )

      descomponer

    1. The extra range is to accommodate for leap seconds

      important

    2. The Daylight Saving Time flag (tm_isdst) is greater than zero if Daylight Saving Time is in effect, zero if Daylight Saving Time is not in effect, and less than zero if the information is not available.

      sacar log despues de convertir a time_t

    1. timeptr is accessed, and potentially modified.

      se modifica estructura pasada

    2. /* call mktime: timeinfo->tm_wday will be set */ mktime ( timeinfo );

      important!

    3. The values of the members tm_wday and tm_yday of timeptr are ignored, and the values of the other members are interpreted even if out of their valid ranges (see struct tm)

      ignored

    4. A call to this function automatically adjusts the values of the members of timeptr if they are off-range or -in the case of tm_wday and tm_yday- if they have values that do not match the date described by the other members.

      por eso se debe llamar despues de asignar los valores

    1. Russia experimented with "permanent DST" between 2011 and 2014.

      !

    2. This assumes that time_t represents seconds, which isn't necessarily the case (though it usually is) – villapx Mar 27 '18 at 21:02

      ???

    3. This code won't work unless your time zone UTC offset is in whole hours. There are 12 time zones where this is not true. Ref. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_zone#List_of_UTC_offsets – Steve Hollasch Feb 25 '18 at 8:30

      !

    4. it is a non-standard (as in, not in POSIX or C standard) function

      "Use timegm()"

    1. I didn't notice earlier that you are using dates outside of the epoch, which starts from 1970. Try again with date values in 1970 or later. – Klitos Kyriacou Aug 17 '15 at 17:14 Yep that was it! As long as I set the time after epoch it worked, thanks. – Tim H UK Aug 17 '15 at 18:37

      solo funcionan fechas >= 1970

    1. I'm looking to do precisely this with about 4000 PDFs. I simply want to add tags, notes and change title, while only linking to the external files

      me too!

    2. This was the simplest approach for me to get the data I imported.

      maybe

    3. I use this PowerShell script to convert pre-prepared excel->csv files into RIS files for further import

      another way

    4. You'll see that 3/4 of the code is error checking

      hahaha!

    5. My second approach relies on JSON format. I consider CSL JSON format supported by Zotero to be limited and unsuitable for present purpose

      !

    6. The most comprehensive import/export format for Zotero is "RDF"

      ok

    1. yanghaozhe February 15, 2021

      recent: 2021

    2. b.n.lawrence January 29, 2021 Me too. I really want this. The lack of it is the one thing that keeps making me consider leaving Zotero

      me too

    3. With a local API, a lot of things would become much easier:- Custom importers for existing libraries (often asked here)- Text mining, similarity search, extracting references from documents.

      ok

    4. @adamsmith: Is there hope to get a local API in the future?

      the ULTIMATE question!

    5. I've used it successfully to automatically import files from disk with links, tags, notes etc

      promising

    6. It uses the debug bridge to run code locally

      to test

    7. adamsmith August 23, 2020 There is no reasonably way to use python on the local database. Zotero doesn't have a local API that's exposed outside of the mozilla framework, so there's nothing python could hook into (it _is_ possible to write a python-based reader for the library, of course. That is part of the Qnotero tool, although likely needs updating since Qnotero is no longer maintained)

      a great pity!

    1. Zotero is an excellent open-source reference manager, but it lacks a direct and straightforward way to access your references at the click of a button.

      a pity

    1. I'm seeking an alternative to qnotero, similar to Qiqqa's InCite feature

      investigate

    2. access locally hosted database or profile or files is not easy (and, qnotero is not easy to use and no longer maintained), that's the reason I develop the library pyzolocal, short for pyzotero-local

      thank you

    1. There currently isn't a way to access the javascript API with the Zotero client app. It would be possible to write a simple plugin that would allow you to send arbitrary js commands to Zotero, but no one has done that yet.

      We (zotero users) are waiting for this!

    1. The JavaScript API provides a powerful way to script changes to your Zotero library.

      We (zotero users and fans) need another easier way to change (one or in batch mode) items!

    1. Subversion (SVN), which was designed to supersede CVS

      Now (2021) SVN is dead! but CVS is alive!

    2. Even though I strongly discourage the use of CVS

      Why?

    3. When you are logged in to the server,

      First, you must login with the same user used in the CVSROOT!!!

    1. Q: Why is Microsoft retiring MAS? A: Microsoft Research developed MAS in response to feedback from our colleagues that the inequality in accessing large datasets presented a significant obstacle to conducting research and cultivating academic talents in the areas of Big Data and AI. With MAS, Microsoft Research has been proud to contribute to a culture of open exchange and a growing ecosystem of collaborators. As this research project has achieved its objective to remove the data access barriers for our research colleagues, it is the right time to explore other opportunities to give back to communities outside of academia.

      WTF?

    1. Microsoft has to check how its RDP client's options are set when the "Detect connection quality automatically" option is used, because the grayed options shown as selected, including the Font Smoothing" is misleading and not correct.

      bug!

    1. There is a group policy setting that allows you to control this behavior for XP/2003, but Microsoft, in its infinite collective wisdom, has removed this behavior from Vista/2008 and later. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947721 Their solution is to use UAC.
