17:53:15	Lemmatum	We forgot to commemorate the one year anniversary of merging #191! PTSD flashbacks to the infamous 191
17:53:22	Github	https://github.com/PlasmaPy/PlasmaPy/pull/191 : Transport eqs
17:53:50	SolarDrew	In reply to @namurphy:matrix.org In any case, we hope you feel better soon. Thanks 😃
17:54:43	Lemmatum	I will not be at meeting as I'm flying out for experiments.
17:54:58	Nick Murphy	Lemmatum: I hope the experiments go well!
17:55:27	Lemmatum	Thanks! We are already off to a rough start... Lost one of our primary diagnostics
17:56:09	Nick Murphy	Yikes
18:00:45	SolarDrew	Ruh roh
18:01:27	Lemmatum	It's not too bad as we have our other diagnostics which are more important... But still not ideal
18:03:12	Nick Murphy	Ok, starting the community meeting on Jitsi now
18:03:42	Dominik Stańczak	agenda: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1w90vuKp34kyJUWh-RnvPT01-8PKLG9ce7-YivWNmzKE/edit#
18:03:44	Lemmatum	Have fun!

19:19:37	Dominik Stańczak	https://picmi-standard.github.io/ oh look, more standarization!
19:19:45	Dominik Stańczak	standardization*
19:42:12	Nick Murphy	Here's the repo: https://github.com/picmi-standard/picmi
19:42:25	Nick Murphy	Looks like one person involved with OpenPMD is working on this too.
19:51:25	Dominik Stańczak	Yeah, the same people
19:51:37	Dominik Stańczak	They're doing some good science
19:59:01	Nick Murphy	Yeah, definitely. I should look into their work further.
20:44:18	Nick Murphy	Is it just me, or is the documentation for pytest kind of hard to understand?
20:44:34	Cadair	lies 😛
20:44:38	dstansby	it at least takes some getting used to...
20:45:03	dstansby	https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/contents.html is probably the most useful page for me
20:45:04	Nick Murphy	In reply to @dstansby:matrix.org it at least takes some getting used to... Yes, this is the truest statement of them all.
21:50:41	Nick Murphy	From a data file for OpenADAS: C 2. Any downloaded OPEN-ADAS file is made available for the C personal use of the User only. It must not be used for any C commercial application, incorporated into any web site or in C any form re-distributed without express prior written permission C from the ADAS Project. In particular, but not by way of C limitation, it must not be: C * inserted into a managed database structure, C * redistributed along with a modelling or analysis code, C * made available on a public website. I don't think "open" means what they think it means.

05:09:20	Dominik Stańczak	Openish
05:09:42	Dominik Stańczak	Yeah that name would have certain flaws
17:51:40	Nick Murphy	A general question! What books or resources have you found to be most helpful when learning best practices for code development?
17:57:01	Nick Murphy	The resources that I've learned or am learning the most from (independent of language) include: Software Carpentry workshops Best Practices for Scientific Computing by G. Wilson et al. Clean Code by Robert Martin Clean Architecture by Robert Martin (with the caveat that there's a lot of discussion of things like "business rules" which is from a pretty different perspective from scientific programming)
17:59:43	Nick Murphy	Pragmatically, Effective Computation in Physics by Anthony Scopatz and Kathryn Huff has a lot of really, really helpful information.
