🇩🇪 — Hi, ich bin Martin Ueding; Physiker, Maschinenlerner,
Softwareentwickler und engagiere mich für die Mobilitätswende. Ich habe
recht früh mit dem Programmieren angefangen und schreibe darüber im
Bereich »Code & Zahlen«. Im Physikstudium bin ich immer weiter in
die Computerphysik gegangen, meine Studiumsunterlagen sind noch immer
Teil dieser Webseite. Nach der Promotion bin ich in die Wirtschaft
gewechselt. Seit dem Abitur habe ich meine Wege mit dem Fahrrad
erledigt, Radtouren unternommen und irgendwann auch Radreisen.
Inzwischen bin ich auch Aktiver im Radentscheid Bonn.
Aktuell schreibe ich am meisten zu Verkehrsthemen, manchmal auch noch
über Wissenschaft, Maschinenlernen oder anderen Dingen, die mir
einfallen. Die eher technischen Dinge schreibe ich meist auf Englisch,
den Rest auf Deutsch.
Man kann mich per E-Mail, Threema oder Telegram kontaktieren, oder mich auf
Mastodon, Pixelfed
und GitHub finden.
🇺🇸 — Hey, I am Martin Ueding, a physicist, software developer,
machine learning researcher and a traffic policy activist from Germany.
On my blog you can find all my physics study
material, mostly English articles about code and numbers. The
articles about traffic policy
are in German.
You can contact me via E-mail, Threema or Telegram. You can also find me on Mastodon, Pixelfed

There are just too many channels one can communicate over. This should be a
good thing: More choices, no dependence on a single vendor. In theory this is
true. The problem are the incompatibilities between the different services. The
following illustrates the various paths that one can take to message some other
person.

LaTeX compilation is quite slow. Especially if some reference changes and the
document has to be compiled three times in order to get all the page numbers
sorted out. This is bearable as the output of LaTeX is way better than any
other text processing system that I have tried.

I have two computers which are capable of running 3D video games on Windows.
The two towers are a quite a few years apart. The older tower is from 2008 and
has an Intel Core 2 Duo dual-core CPU (E4400). Although it is a 64-Bit CPU
and a 64-Bit Windows 10, it can only address 3.5 GB of RAM because the memory
controller is only 32-Bit. I'd really like to ask the guy at HP who decided to
specify this mainboard why he did that. Anyway, the GPU in that system has been
exchanged a lot of times:

This is probably just a pure vanity article. I thought it would be nice to see
the evolution of my desk over the past years. Sadly I only have photos since
2008, so I have nothing before that.

There seem to be a lot of people who have trouble inserting a USB-cable in the
right orientation on the first go. I often have a little trouble with that
myself. The USB standard asks the manufacturers of cables to have a tactile USB
logo on the upper side of the connector. In theory you can take any connector,
feel the USB logo and know the way to plug it in. On the computer and phones,
the upper side should be up.

There are a lot of things that can go wrong on a LAN party. If you cannot play
together, those are some of the causes that I have observed over time. Each
block lists some symptoms. Sadly it is hard to have a differential diagnosis in
each case. So one needs to check those things one by one.

Von Wirtschaft habe ich sicher wenig Ahnung. Aber bezüglich der Währungsunion
erscheint es mir inzwischen absolut offensichtlich, dass da irgendwas nicht
passt.
