I develop computational tools and open-source software for scientific research, with a focus on data visualization, cloud-based platforms, and making complex datasets more accessible to researchers.

I like the idea of having a proxy git server between you and the remote, I've never seen that before. Are there other use cases you imagine for such a setup besides intercepting and reviewing pushes?

I've found that Asymmetric Numeral Systems (you mentioned it briefly) is the optimal practical method for pure entropy encoding. I just posted this https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47806122

Yes the FBG-101 works after a few seconds. However in the original link it still doesn't work... I tried chrome and firefox. But here's a clue, when I pluck the guitar string several times, I sometimes here a little short scratch/static sound.

Seems to work. What do you imagine is the main use case?

The air particle visualization is really cool! However, I don't hear anything. I'm on chrome browser in linux. It wasn't clear how to get that to work. Thx

Fun idea. Before I try it, how far should I expect to go before reaching my destination?

Nice! Is this meant to promote brain health, or to just be relaxing?

Q. Is it possible to resize the shapes? That wasn't clear to me from the interface, and I had a hard time completing one of the first puzzles without being able to resize.
