The problem of building neural surrogates #sciml for real-world industrial problems is not a problem of choosing neural network architectures, it's a problem of gathering the right training data from the model you're seeking to emulate. We demonstrate this on a turbofan jet engine, achieving 0.1% relative error through an active learning process. This is one of the demonstrations from #scitech showcasing the advancements of industrialization of #SciML

emacs org-mode todo list priority (urgency) hack

Might as well brag about this, since I’m inordinately proud (I become an #elisp hacker about once every two or three years). I love #emacs #org-mode, but I don’t love what it does with todo entries (highest-priority, longest-scheduled first). For me, if something’s been at priority A for 280 days, it’s not that high-priority (but still higher than anything at priority B). I want highest-priority, most-recently-scheduled first, in the time-honored tradition of ignoring things in the hope they’ll go away.

Here it is.

(defun my-org-agenda-todo-sort (a b)  "Function should only sort TODO items; since I can't return ``unsortable'' for things that don't compare, I justreturn 0 and hope for the best.  Seems to be working so far.  Higher-priority and more-recently-scheduled itemshave higher urgency."   (if (string-match "\\(Sched\\.\\s-*\\([0-9]+\\)x\\|Scheduled\\):\\s-+\\S-+ \\[#\\([ABC]\\)\\]" a)      (let ((a-sched-days (string-to-number (if (null (match-string 2 a)) "0" (match-string 2 a))))            (a-priority (match-string 3 a)))        (if (string-match "\\(Sched\\.\\s-*\\([0-9]+\\)x\\|Scheduled\\):\\s-+\\S-+ \\[#\\([ABC]\\)\\]" b)            (let ((b-sched-days (string-to-number (if (null (match-string 2 b)) "0" (match-string 2 b))))                  (b-priority (match-string 3 b)))                                        ;(message "Agenda item a of type %s: %s" (type-of a) a)                                        ;(message "Agenda item b of type %s: %s" (type-of b) b)                                        ;(message "a-priority: %s; b-priority: %s; a-sched-days: %s; b-sched-days: %s"                                        ;         a-priority b-priority a-sched-days b-sched-days)              (cond ((string< a-priority b-priority) 1)                    ((string> a-priority b-priority) -1)                    (t (cond ((< a-sched-days b-sched-days) 1)                             ((> a-sched-days b-sched-days) -1)                             (t 0)))))          0          )        )    0    )  )(setq org-agenda-cmp-user-defined 'my-org-agenda-todo-sort)(setq org-agenda-sorting-strategy '((agenda habit-down time-up user-defined-down category-keep)                                    (todo urgency-down category-keep)                                    (tags urgency-down category-keep)                                    (search category-keep)))

Update: Ok, that was stupid. Here’s a more readable version:
