List of mathematicians born in Austria, there are pages for many other countries.

The statement "I've found that Aberth performs worse [than Weierstrass-Durand-Kerner] on most examples as its faster convergence is offset by the slower evaluation." is interesting.

Another Android/iOS app for viewing and editing org-mode files.
+ LaTeX rendering sounds interesting

website2org.el downloads a website, transforms it into minimalist Orgmode, and presents the results as either a temporary Orgmode buffer or creates an .org file in a specified directory.
Might be useful for conversion of my few HTML pages to Orgmode.

Found on Sacha Chua's blog https://sachachua.com/blog/2024/10/2024-10-14-emacs-news/, where the link text states
"Building a blog from Org Mode files using only Emacs". I am not sure whether this is correct, the emacs lisp file has the description
"org-jekyll.el --- Custom Emacs plugin to operate with my OrgMode+Jekyll blog". Does it need Jekyll?
His web site https://eugene-andrienko.com/en/ has a "Powered by Jekyll" link.

Last month Terry gave the Oxford Mathematics London Public Lecture at the Science Museum, revealing his thoughts on the potential of Artificial Intelligence for science and mathematics before joining fellow mathematician Po-Shen Lo for a fireside chat.

What does he think? Well, he certainly sees a future where mathematics is embracing and benefiting from AI. It might even bring more mathematicians in to the subject, some of them not even professionals.

Find out more by watching the lecture from 5pm BST on Wednesday 7th August 2024 onwards.

On 23 March 2024, Rocket Lab launched the Advanced Composite Solar Sail System (ACS3), a NASA solar sail experiment. The main goal of the mission is to test the deployment of a 80 m2 (9 x 9 meter) solar sail from a 12U cubesat bus. The sail will be deployed late May or early June 2024, i.e. some 2 months after the launch. ACS3 (2024-077B) is in a 97.4 deg inclined, 993 x 1023 km sun-synchronous orbit.

The Structured Email (SML) working group will develop standards track specifications for:
- annotating human-readable email content with a machine-readable version, to allow for more reliable and accurate content analysis and processing; and
- recommendations for security and trust mechanisms that should be applied when processing machine-readable content in email messages.
