A series of systems usually derived from the International System of Units that are more convenient for certain applications.

Before we get a decent open source integrated development environment, what else can you do?

But also perfect for small one-off files when you don't have the patience to setup said IDE.

vim's defaults are atrocious for the 21st century! Vundle is reasonable as an ad-hoc package manager, but it can't set fixed versions of packages:

Represents image pixel by pixel, rather than by mathematical primitives such as done in vector graphics:

The opposite of a human-readable format.

The simplest harmonic oscillator system.

Confusingly, in LaTeX:

The BBC 1979-1982 adaptations of John Le Carré's novels are the best miniseries ever made:They are the most realistic depiction of spycraft ever made.

Some honorable mentions:

Combination of electromagnetism and general relativity. Unlike combining quantum mechanics and general relativity, this combination was easier.

TODO any experiments of interest at all?

Ciro Santilli considered this as the basis for Ciro's 2D reinforcement learning games, but ultimately decided it was a bit too messy. Nice overall though.

First proper nearest galaxy to the Milky Way. Everything in the middle in the Local group is either a satellite of the Milky Way or Andromeda.

Many Andromeda satellite galaxies are simply numbered Andromeda II, Andromeda III and so on.

As described on Wikipedia, the observational history of Andromeda is fascinating. Little by little, people noticed that it had a different nature to many other objects observed on the sky, and the hypothesis that there are other galaxies like ours grew in force.

Part of our fascination with Andromeda is due to how similar in size and shape and close it is to the Milky Way.

It is clearly the only thing so large and so close.

Andromeda is, without a doubt, our sister galaxy.

One can't help but wonder if there is some alien looking back at us when we are looking at them through our telescope.

Andromeda is also the furthest object from Earth that can be seen with the naked eye.^[ref] Not surprising, as it literally shines with the strength of a trillion suns!
