If you were unable to join the @openforcefield workshop at the @ccpbiosim training week, you can find all the material with installation instructions here: github.com/openforcefield/cc…
Enjoy! #compchem
We should be all set for the @openforcefield workshop at the @ccpbiosim training week with @mwt_dev🤞 See you in Leeds / zoom tomorrow if you're registered! 💻
Needed to remove and re-install my mambaforge distribution, which I think is the cause of several million files being in my trash. (We passed 2,500,000 over the course of writing these two sentences.)
Two of my peers/mentors in grad school (hey Christoph, hey Tim) sat me down within my first week in the lab and said "learn this," something I am forever grateful for
In memory of Bram Moolenaar: how did you get into Vim? For me it started gradually via gvim. I used it casually until I copied the .vimrc from @amix3k. That “madman” remapped the arrow keys which for the first time made me realize people actually use ghjk. I became a convert.
There's a new version of this post
I've released MDTraj 1.9.8, which should support Python 3.11 and Apple Silicon.
Any deployment/installation/etc issues, please report here: github.com/mdtraj/mdtraj/dis…
Now to mull over the switch to `osx-arm64` for everything
Happy to announce @ambermdprog Ambertools 23 now has an osx-arm64 build on @condaforge 🚀
Now you can install ambertools without having to use Rosetta 2 emulation 🎉
Big thanks to @mwt_dev @jaime_rgp @ghutchis @hainm_comp @isuru_f for all of their help! 🙌
A few details 🧵

#shef2023 nice example of @openforcefield facilitating testing of new force field hypotheses. Lehner et al preprint is here: arxiv.org/abs/2305.15981
#shef2023 Lehrer. all of this is integ in OpenFF and code is in GitHub.
Lately while working on Interchange with @openforcefield I'm running into a few interoperability issues I could use some help with from the community. (We've improved Amber support considerably lately, although a couple of details a still thorny.)

"high-energy breakfast concoction" is a great rebrand of the monstrous peanut butter + nutella waffles I had in college

Yeah, that's very normal. They say the best way to get into woodworking is:
Step 1 - Learn to code
Step 2 - Burn out
Step 3 - Get into woodworking

someone defended firing 88% of the staff in a message that said "it's just DevOps." Oh, you sweet summer child.
