<raptop> Talking about the weird lack of impact from The Pandemic?
* raptop *really* hopes that calling it "The Pandemic" doesn't sound weirdly short-sighted in a decade or 3
<SnoopJ> the lack of frank discussion thereof in terms of, like, respiratory disease being horrifying

<raptop> Huh, AAS has a late 90s-looking site for uploading a table to get converted into machine-readable format
<galois> title: Machine readable table creator page
<raptop> Amusingly it includes & delimited files as an input option
<raptop> "When describing the format structure of your dataset, use these FORTRAN-like formated I/O style specifiers:"
<raptop> Some days it seems like FORTRAN is going to outlive humans

<raptop> "In minimize potential confusion, the AAS machine readable (MR) tables use standard SI units in most cases."
* raptop eyes a table full of aus, solar radii, and solar masses uneasily
<raptop> ...
<raptop> egg|laptop|egg: why is au capitalized here? https://authortools.aas.org/MRT/unitstandards.html
<galois> title: AAS Journal Unit standards for machine readable tables
<egg|laptop|egg> the AAS standards are bad and they should feel bad
<X> O_o
<X> Eh. Probably should have posted this in unofficial. Excuse me.
<raptop> "The current size limit is 10MB. Please contact the AAS Staff Scientist, Dr. Greg Schwarz, at Greg.Schwarz(at)aas.org if you have uploads bigger than this."
<raptop> X: o_O
<X> Very. O_o
<raptop> Apparently side-effects of being ban-hammered include SAN loss
* raptop pokes AAS with a stick. Do I really need to break down my RA/Dec entrees from 2 to 6 columns because I used sexigecimal formatting?
<raptop> ...or maybe not. The unit checker that they supply says no
