Recently "Lama Bleu" has been working on a custom firmware image for the PlutoSDR. Installing custom firmware allows you to load up a pre-configured Linux system which already has a bunch of useful software installed. He writes that his version is not designed to have a nice GUI, but rather focuses on scripting and data acquisition software.

An experimental implementation of tlsdate (https://github.com/ioerror/tlsdate) in Go.
WARNING: This software has not been reviewed. You probably shouldn't use it.

Work in progress, fixing old Kai Borre Matlab code to run in Octave and hence be callable by Python to work with RINEX data
Working on updating the code to run in modern Matlab and Octave for use with oct2py in calling from Python.
Currently the functions easy3.m easy4.m easy5.m run in Octave and Matlab, reading the default included files.

How to install FreeBSD/ARM on computers of the Raspberry Pi family.

gopass is a rewrite of the pass password manager http://www.passwordstore.org in Go with the aim of making it cross-platform and adding additional features. Our target audience are professional developers and sysadmins (and especially teams of those) who are well versed with a command line interface. One explicit goal for this project is to make it more approachable to non-technical users. We go by the UNIX philosophy and try to do one thing and do it well, providing a stellar user experience and a sane, simple interface.

TODO: https://www.johndcook.com/blog/2022/10/30/arctan-k-tan-t/ states "This plot looks similar to the plot of true anomaly for a highly elliptical orbit. I’m sure they’re related, but I haven’t worked out exactly how."

https://www.johndcook.com/blog/2022/10/21/math-origins/ explains V.I. Arnolds comment
"All mathematics is divided into three parts: cryptography (paid for by CIA, KGB and the like), hydrodynamics (supported by manufacturers of atomic submarines), and celestial mechanics (financed by military and other institutions dealing with missiles, such as NASA)."

https://www.johndcook.com/blog/2018/09/24/riemann-hypothesis-the-fine-structure-constant-and-the-todd-function/ is about  Sir Michael Atiyah's incorrect proof of Riemann's hypothesis, the article https://rjlipton.com/2018/09/26/reading-into-atiyahs-proof/ is an interesting read.

The article https://www.johndcook.com/non_central_chi_square.pdf sounds interesting:
John D. Cook Upper bounds on non-central chi-squared tails and truncated normal moments (2010). UT MD Anderson Cancer Center Department of Biostatistics Working Paper Series. Working Paper 62.
Abstract. We show that moments of the truncated normal distribution provide upper bounds on the tails of the non-central chi-squared distribution, then develop upper bounds for the former.
