* raptop has a silly thought
<raptop> !8 Is iximeow a laptop?
<galois> raptop: no
<egg|laptop|egg> raptop: yes
<WeylandsWings> raptop: i mean the scope is what a half meter class with 1 deg by 1 deg FoV?
<raptop> 0.8 m, and I think ~0.75 deg by 0.75 deg?
<raptop> hrm, maybe less
<raptop> !wa sqrt(0.37)
<raptop> So, more like 0.61 deg x 0.61 deg
<WeylandsWings> i mean that is still pretty large
<WeylandsWings> not unusually large, but larger than most
<raptop> Pixel scale should be ~0.53"/pix
<WeylandsWings> idle thought, 0.53"/pix is an easy litmus test for people who deal with astronomy
<raptop> To see who reads it as arcseconds, and who reads it as inches?
<WeylandsWings> mhm
<WeylandsWings> probably needs to be a fast test, so they dont have time to reason it out

<raptop> astronomers naming things https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.00738
<raptop> !acr -add:LLAMA Large Latin American Millimeter Array
<galois> Definition added!
<raptop> egg: does this mean that you should do an update to one of the Principia systems? https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.01074
<WeylandsWings> raptop: i mean we came up with DIABLO and something else a couple weeks back
<WeylandsWings> Astronomers just do acronyms well
<WeylandsWings> (and DoD programs)
<raptop> heh
<raptop> WeylandsWings: If you aren't considering a followup system named MEPHISTO, I'll be disapointed
<WeylandsWings> raptop: as in came up with in here
<raptop> !
<raptop> ah, right
<WeylandsWings> raptop: https://esper.irclog.whitequark.org/kspacademia/2020-08-31#2899283 Dual Infrared Astronomy Based In Lagrange Orbit
<WeylandsWings> also BAAL Basic Astronomy Activities Lecture
<WeylandsWings> i mean you could use BAAL as your role as TA
<WeylandsWings> as for MEPHISTO, Meta Exposure Processing HabItable Search for Terrestrial Orbits
<WeylandsWings> hate burying the I in Habitable though
<WeylandsWings> Could also swap the m for multi
<raptop> Multi Exposure Processing Infrared Search for Terrestrial Orbits
<raptop> ...this is obviously what one uses to get time on CARMENES or iSHELL
<WeylandsWings> raptop: you are missing a H
<WeylandsWings> That H is in a terrible spot though
<raptop> blarg

<galois> SnoopJeDi: bird
<SnoopJeDi> joint would be apropos of my current reading, tucking into Rudy Rucker's Ware books again for the first time in ages. The story is rife with cannabis
