egg changed the topic of #principia to: READ THE FAQ: http://goo.gl/gMZF9H; The current version is Germain. We currently target 1.8.1, 1.9.1, 1.10.1, and 1.11.0. <scott_manley> anyone that doubts the wisdom of retrograde bop needs to get the hell out | https://xkcd.com/323/ | <egg> calculating the influence of lamont on Pluto is a bit silly… | <egg> also 4e16 m * 2^-52 is uncomfortably large

<gracefu> random question, i was wondering if you guys ever considered contributing your integrators to scipy
* raptop pokes egg|cell|egg with that question
<raptop> I mean, granted, I'm pretty sure that would mean converting from C# to FORTRAN >_>
<gracefu> that *would* be horrifying
<gracefu> there is some c++ in scipy though, so i hope they have some of the build system set up for c++
<raptop> I'm being silly, but IIRC, a lot of stuff in numpy is a Python wrapper on FORTRAN
<gracefu> uh quick disclaimer i'm not from scipy i'm just a user
<gracefu> yeah i was quite disappointed to see scipy's odeint is literally a wrapper around a 13 year old fortran library called odepack
<gracefu> that seems to still need bugfixes even now xP
<discord-_> P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they). — Maybe put it through cython first? Would that work?
<raptop> It's a language that's very much alive in scientific computing
<raptop> consider: https://lammps.sandia.gov/
<gracefu> hmm is that so
<gracefu> TIL
<raptop> (Not Safe for Mofh)
<discord-_> P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they). — mofh?
<raptop> ah, mofh_ at the moment
<raptop> (It's just a lämp joke)
<gracefu> scipy aside, i've been having a very enjoyable time reading the principia source code (mainly the numerics/integration parts and the way scalar, vector, and precision types are handled)
<gracefu> really fun c++ template wizardry

<discord-_> j​eus. — can mechjeb launch into the plane of the moon with principia?
<discord-_> P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they). — Yes, but it requires doglegs from some sites
<discord-_> P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they). — But that is not the best way
<discord-_> S​tonesmile. — Depends on where you are; in Korou, yes, KSC, no
<discord-_> P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they). — KSC allows it occassionally
<raptop> Baikonur, lolno
<discord-_> S​tonesmile. — Yeah, every 19 years
<discord-_> P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they). — Launch due east, but time it perfectly
<discord-_> j​eus. — alright thanks
