(Review out today, in which we ask whether xylem disconnection arising early in wood anatomy is convergent with disconnection seen across tall plants and whether tree evolution requires disconnection given periodic drought.)

Geolocating a photograph without embedded GPS data is a recurring challenge in open source investigation, field verification, and conflict documentation. When metadata is absent or stripped, analysts must work from visible landmarks, architectural features, and terrain to determine where an image was taken. One geometrically rigorous approach is ray intersection: bearing lines, each anchored to […]
"Man, I really wish RStudio respected hierarchy in code-folded section headers... I wonder how easy it would be to..."
