Someone in the video also said it looks like Up (at 5:59-ish)

That’s incredible! Makes the transportation nerd in me be fired up with jealousy! And fortunate that no one was hurt, the pilot and the helpers really did a great job jumping your house. Was there any reason they told you why they had to make an emergency landing? Maybe I missed that part.

But it looks like the gondola is lop-sided from the video. Is that it? Seems like the whole neighborhood came out to watch the spectacle :D

Thanks for the comment and the sympathies :D

I hadn’t heard that song before… I have now and I love it! The piano is SO good! Thanks for the new tune :)

I’ll be sure to reach out if I find myself being unable to replicate it.

No worries, and good luck! My email can be found on my website if you want it :D

I wasn’t even talking about tikzplotlib. It’s just that pgf backend is now supported by matplotlib and you can produce pgf files with.

Ah… I’ve think I’ve heard of it, but I never really registered that. Thanks for the info :D

I could give you the tikz source of Fig 2 if you’d like. The patterns and colors of the plots took me almost a day to choose. I wanted to go for a color-blind friendly pallette and keep it looking still snazzy. (https://github.com/simon-pfahler/colorblind)

I’m familiar with matplotlib -> PGFplots (using the Python tikzplotlib library). Unfortunately, I’ve decided against using it for the paper as it produces quite unmanageable outputs. Especially if I rerun experiments + with new data, and later want to change patterns, colors… It was always more of a hassle. I used it for my Master’s thesis.

Instead, Python program -> show plot -> if okay, generate CSV.

In LaTeX, have PGFplot code which reads CSV file and generates the data that way. Much, much easier to maintain.

Thanks for your words!

Yes! We use TikZ for the diagrams, which can be a nightmare sometimes… but it gets better the more I use it.

Regarding the plots, we use PGFplots. I often use matplotlib for quick plots while running experiments, but the paper itself uses PGFplots with the data in a CSV for that sweet, sweet scaling when you zoom in.
