Yes, the crowds are muttering "huh? what? [livejournal.com profile] ironphoenix actually meant it about his thesis?" I hear them now...

I tried out some of my latest ideas on handling the acoustic side of my thesis experiments this weekend. There were a couple of surprises involving the dynamics of periodically driven pendulums and acoustic impedances, but even with all that, I have a way ahead. Hopefully, this summer, I can get the balance of the experimental work done and then write the thing this fall. I might end up taking a week or so of time off work for the experiments; first, though, I'll discuss strategy and requirements with my supervisor.

In other news, for those who have been assailed with news of the open-source boob train wreck, here's a pretty good take on it by Ursula Vernon.

What amused me last night was the discovery that several of my friends had in fact completely missed GropeGate.

But in all three cases they were people who have small Flists, and who thus are less likely to notice activity outside their own LJ microcosms.

GropeGate II: The reunion?

One of my FL was referring to the entire saga as GropeGate, so I guess I picked it up from her. We were both being horribly amused at the tags on the train-wreck post. Sadly no MOAR public tags. Sob.

Public tagging was another idea destined to end in comtragedy...

the open source boob project?

Dear lordly, that's just such a catastrophe waiting to happen...

Well, it's not really going to happen, but it was a naive idea at best. The main boob on display here is, well, the plan's author.

awesome!

I wouldn't understand it at all - but would be curious about its progress this summer. =)

Thanks!

It's less mysterious than the technical words make it sound.
