I made my first #lua filter today, with some #copilot aid.
My #quartopub to hugo-md was not rendering figures with alt/caption in a way that let the #hugo theme deal with the styling.
Lua filter for markdown image rendering. Too long to post all text here. yaml frontmatter section of a Quarto document: --- title: "Lua filter for Quarto to hugo-md image rendering" author: Dr. Mowinckel date: '2025-10-22' format: hugo-md: filters: - figure-to-markdown.lua ---

Just published my new R article: 'Mapply: When You Need to Iterate Over Multiple Inputs'! 🚀 If `sapply` doesn't quite cut it for your multi-variable iterations, `mapply` is your friend. Learn to pair inputs beautifully. #RStats #Mapply

We're building a national application for MRI infrastructure in Norway. Help us make a strong case by completing this survey, whether you're a current user or just interested in the field!

#MRI #Norway #Research #Science
A map of Norway showing the distribution of MRI scanners. Four MRI scanners are placed at different locations across the country. The map is overlaid with two shaded areas: a dark blue area representing a 60-minute travel radius that covers 2.471 million people, and a light blue area representing a 120-minute travel radius that covers 3.510 million people. Arrows show that data from these scanners is uploaded to and stored in a central cloud-based server.

Slowly trying to restart a project i had to abandon when i got sick. I had to just leave a complete refactoring of an #rstats package right in the middle of it, and it's not been the best to pick up again.

#Git diff helps, but without commits I have no idea what the purpose was. 🤯

Doughnamo, your dynamic #sourdough baking companion is a pet project of mine.

I've improved my webdev skills, and have now started to learn about how to turn websites into applications with #pwa.

You should now be able to install Doughnamo on android (and iOS?)!

I've started getting some of my #origami up in my hexagon shelves. These shelves have a kind of flimsy wall mount, so they can't take much weight. Perfect for origami with magnets though!

I'm working on a blogpost connecting #rstats with a local #Ollama #llm for code assistance. I'm struggling to find a good model for this. Deepseek-r1 is nice for chatting, but I'd like a model that can output pure code, without lots of reasoning.

I'd love to hear from people with Ollama experience

Today is International Day for Women and Girls in Science. Given the massive onslaught on DEI initiatives in the US right now, this day feels incredibly important to make a note of.

Science is improved by diversity, and diversity does not happen on its own.
