BLAS Pitfalls with Mac OSX Accelerate Framework

Mac OSX comes with the Accelerate framework that contains BLAS, which is useful for us computational scientists. But there are some pitfalls to using it, which I discuss here with the help of f2py.



Protein–ligand interactions from a quantum fragmentation perspective: The case of the SARS-CoV-2 main protease interacting with α-ketoamide inhibitors

I announce a publication about applying our complexity reduction framework to the study of α-ketoamide inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2. I also do some travel blogging about Tromsø, Norway.



Complexity Reduction in Density Functional Theory: Locality in Space and Energy

I announce a publication I worked on in our series on Complexity Reduction. I provide a teaser for the paper results using a magic trick related to eigenvalues.

Some papers and blog posts I recommend.



French Coffee

After my recent trip to France, I have some thoughts and experiments about how to brew a "un café".
