Failed experiment 'habit loops' and how to deal with them: a thread I’ve been reading Jud Brewer MD PhD’s book, Unwinding Anxiety. He explains how our old brain leads us into habit loops that don’t work well in the modern world, and how to update them into more healthy behaviour 1/21

New preprint: we show wavefront shaping with a new kind of MEMS megapixel spatial light modulator that has fast pistoning micro-mirrors: arxiv.org/abs/2409.01289 (includes code to run it fast). Great effort from project lead José C, also with George Gordon Joel Carpenter.

This is _clearly_ one of the best ideas in imaging of the decade. I strongly encourage people to play around with this if they have a few spare hours — watching a *dye* clear a tissue in front of your eyes for the first time is an amazing experience.

Interesting food for thought here about "enshittification" of UK universities and possible strategies to reverse that trend wonkhe.com/blogs/how-to-r…
