This week in the Friday Faves we have a cheeky Tweet, a new GAN that might find some amazing applications in geophysics and the Nobel Prize for chemistry. 99% Let’s start out with some wisdom of the creator of Keras: VSCode Universe now with Jupyter My editor of choice is VSCode with the Python extension.

To what accuracy and precision do we know the volume of the Earth?
Satellites such as GOCE and GRACE measure the geoid with unprecedented accuracy. Altimeters can determine local surface elevation with millimetre-precision. This makes me wonder: to what precision and accuracy can we measure (or calculate) the volume of the Earth? I’m a lay when it comes to solid Earth, and I find it surprisingly hard to […]
