SISR: Vim-plugin for searching in syntax regions

Axel Dahlberg — Wed, 26 Aug 2020 14:56:57 +0000

SISR (https://github.com/AckslD/vim-sisr) is my first public vim plugin.

The idea for this plugin started when I wanted to search for a pattern but only inside equation-regions in a tex-document. I found an answer by jjaderberg on StackExchange and thought I would turn this into a plugin with some extended functionality.

SISR provides commands to search within specified syntax regions. One specifies these regions by the name of the syntax item. The matches of the search are populated in the location list which can be
traversed using lnext and lprevious.

Hope you enjoy it and looking forward to contributions or feedback.

NetSquid: The Network Simulator for Quantum Information using Discrete events

Axel Dahlberg — Tue, 30 Jun 2020 12:41:06 +0000

We're happy to announce that a beta release of the quantum network simulator NetSquid has just been made freely available for non-commerical use! 🎉

NetSquid -- the Network Simulator for Quantum Information using Discrete events -- is a software tool for the modelling and simulation of scalable quantum networks developed at QuTech. The goal of NetSquid is to enable scientists and engineers to design the future quantum internet as well as modular quantum computing architectures. One of NetSquid’s key features is its ability to easily and accurately model the effects of time on the performance of quantum network and quantum computing systems. This forms an essential ingredient in developing scalable systems which require a design that can mitigate the limited lifetime of quantum bits processed by quantum devices.

Please see the NetSquid website for information (https://netsquid.org) and feel free to leave questions or comments on our user forum (https://forum.netsquid.org).

Corona statistics

Axel Dahlberg — Sun, 05 Apr 2020 16:05:57 +0000

There are many statistics and plots related to the corona-virus. I wanted to have an interactive plot with all countries (or a given subset) so I created this repo:
https://github.com/AckslD/corona_statistics

It uses plotly to plot statistics of cases in different countries.

I've also started exploring some ways to predict future cases. If anyone would like to contribute or have some ideas, feel free to contact me or open a pull request in the repo. Any contribution is very welcome ❤️

Introducing manven

Axel Dahlberg — Thu, 24 Oct 2019 12:09:23 +0000

I like to use virualenv (I'm not such a big a fan of conda), but it is sometimes annoying to keep track of created environments and to source the correct script depending on what shell you're using. For this reason I wrote manven, which can create, activate, list and remove created environments and quickly create and prune temporary ones. Feel free to checkout https://acksld.github.io/manven/ for how to install and use it :)

This is my first open-source project on my own so I'm very happy to hear any of your thoughts!

How can `manven` be used?

After installing manven and adding the alias smanven as described in the installation you can create and activate an enviroment as

smanven activate myvenv

To list all the created enviroments

smanven list

To create and activate a quick temporary enviroment

smanven temp

For complete documentation of the full functionality and accepted flags, see the docs.

Happy venv-ing! :)
