We just passed the single most comprehensive rezoning in the US—legalizing multifamily housing up to 6 stories citywide in a Paris style

After extensive review, France has established very positive gender affirming care guidelines, and they’ve rejected the highly politicized Cass Report as simply false.

New French guidelines show doctors overwhelmingly support gender-affirming care - LGBTQ Nation
The medical guidelines contradict numerous conclusions from the UK's infamous Cass Review.

Wow! KomaMRI.jl was mentioned in a talk at MRI Together by Charles McGrath, where he discussed CMRsim, another fantastic open-source MRI simulator!

Could this be the publicity we need to cross 1k downloads? (Currently at 993🙉)

Attention #JuliaLang package devs! Use DocumenterInterLinks.jl! If you haven't built your docs in forever, rebuild them with a recent Documenter version so they include an inventory file so others can interlink with them. That is all. github.com/JuliaDocs/Do...
