Advances in Pencil Science: April 2009
http://pencilscience.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Advances in Pencil Science. Tuesday, April 14, 2009. Seeking help from Statistician. Suppose I have distinct samples of a cumulative density function at 0.01, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 0.99 obtained from an interview. I can provide some constraint that the 0.01 point is not "too close" to the 0.25 point and similarly for the 0.99 and the 0.75 points. I need to interpolate between the given points. Thirdly, similarly for a product of two such distributions. It would be nearly hopeless for a small traffic blog ...

Advances in Pencil Science: December 2010
http://pencilscience.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Advances in Pencil Science. Thursday, December 9, 2010. This code can count to a million in words. It could probably be refactored so it was shorter and could count to any number. If you were patient enough. The "-b" flag puts "and" in the places a Brit would put it. It's optional but preferred. I have random stopping points to increase the modest entertainment value of it running. Can you recursively get wordify up to the quintillions? How should the "-b" flag be handled? Can you do this in French?

Advances in Pencil Science. Saturday, September 25, 2010. Read the whole thing. During my sophomore year, 1992, 1,500 scientists, including more than half the living Nobel laureates, admonished in their Warning to Humanity: “A great change in our stewardship of the earth and the life on it is required if vast human misery is to be avoided and our global home on this planet is not to be irretrievably mutilated.”. So what have we done? The god thou servest. 8221; Was he wrong? 8221; By a tenth? The PyNIO i...

Advances in Pencil Science. Wednesday, February 29, 2012. CAM3 fails on namelist read. CAM3 won't run at TACC out of the box,. It will fail to read the namelist file, as the nodes can't read from stdin. This may apply to other HPC setups as well. Copy the following text to a file called patchCAM. Diff -ru cam1/models/atm/cam/src/control/runtime opts.F90 ./CAM3/cam1/models/atm/cam/src/control/runtime opts.F90.
