While I agree that the brain can generally block it out once you accept it, I'll add that sometimes (for some people) it goes from a constant tone to intermittent chirping. The first time mine layered in a "typewriter tinnitus"[1] I wondered if I was picking up electronic interference in my head, which is a bit more difficult to tune out.

I personally would rather show actual data over interpolated data, but I don't know how many unphysical interpolation artifacts you're getting or whether that really matters at a public outreach level.

That said, if you felt like processing it yourself, the L1 files are available every 12-24 seconds, and preprocessed images are available ~1 per minute. The synoptic version you're using is about 1 frame every 3 minutes at 20 fps so you could just triple the framerate without needing any interpolation, or string together the images yourself.

I'll add that "raw" is after a bit of postprocessing to make it pretty.

When the SDO webserver went down a few months ago I rebuilt the L1 data processing pipeline from JSOC so we could still do outreach and there's a surprising amount of opinion that goes into the mapping of data to visualization for each wavelength. My composite movies came out looking more like an acid trip than solar data.

Even having a Gmail address doesn't make you immune from someone putting in the wrong address.

I made a throwaway/spam account with a silly name back in ~2007, and then in ~2015 someone established a fairly successful company with that name. I now regularly get job applications, tax documents, and employee timesheets to my email. They even signed up for the service that controls their website with my email.

I keep waiting for them to contact me about taking over the address, but as far as I can tell they don't even realize they don't control it.

Serious question, but what is the best practice for keeping n-dimensional arrays organized/labeled? Pandas? Xarray? Converting everything to netcdf before using it?

If you're using a browser with heavy anti-fingerprinting capabilities it will upload a randomized canvas image instead of the intended image, and you'll get a lot of descriptions of pictures of wavy lines and no people.

I also switched over a year or so ago and find it a significant improvement with one notable exception: in TST when you hover over a collapsed tab group it would show you a list of all tabs in the group while Sidebery doesn't. Similarly when closing a group Sidebery doesn't show all of the tabs that would close, just the total count.

I submitted a feature request a year ago but got no traction, and now I just expand and re-close groups before mass closing to double check if I need anything.

My first thought was gut hook knife, but if it's especially question mark shaped it could be a "rescue knife". They often have a backwards facing cutting edge for seatbelts and the like.

I've found that WhisperX with the medium model has been amazing at subtitling shows containing English dialects (British, Scottish, Australian, New Zealand-ish). It not only nails all the normal speech, but even gets the names and completely made up slang words. Interestingly you can tell it was trained from source material with dialects because it subtitles their particular spelling; so someone American will say color, and someone British will say colour.

I can't speak to how it performs outside of production quality audio, but in the hundreds of hours of subtitles that I've generated I don't think I've seen a single error.

What I wish I had, and maybe someone here knows of something that fulfills the role, is a means of providing erroneous information about myself to data brokers. I'd like to insert some fake addresses, wrong phone numbers, made up familial relationships, etc and let that propagate, rather than go through all the hoops to try (largely in vain) to have the information removed.
