How to start coding for swarm robots?
Do check out these options (personally I’ve used these) 1. Buzz: https://the.swarming.buzz 2. Argos: https://github.com/ilpincy/argos3

My career development plan
You can do AI by relying on a library that is effectively a black box and yet make the result useful to other users. Recently I made a web interface for Argos3 (swarm robotics framework https://www.argos-sim.info ) and I do not know how it works. I understand in principle (write the code for a robot, define how many such robots run, how many ticks, start the simulation, study the output) but that is it, a very high level (some would say superficial) level. Yet, by providing a web interface (using Docker and Observable) I facilitated the research process. Did I do any AI? To somebody familiar with Argos3, no, to pretty much anyone else, yes.

C++ and Robotics.
Simulation is a strong choice too. ARGoS, Actin, Webots, Gazebo and V-Rep are some examples. A simulation will give you the opportunity to use some robots in different environments (with a lot of configurations). Gazebo has a big community and documentation, V-Rep is the more powerful one (and my pick).

What's a self hosted tool you'd like me to build?
How? Encapsulating the "core" part in an HTTP API. For example I don't write C++ and I don't even know much about swarm robotics. Yet to help a group of researchers I wrote a short NodeJS server for Argos3 https://github.com/ilpincy/argos3 that allowed few functions, in particular starting a simulation and get the results back. I did so naively at first and then in order to get faster feedback tinkered with server-sent events. This allowed me to connect an interface like ObservableHQ in JavaScript or Jupyter Notebooks in Python (but can also be JS, Julia, etc) by providing that API and results via HTTPS.

Google Scholar PDF Reader
Maybe try Zotero[1]. There are many addons which can do what you need.

I wrote my bibliography manually (Dont ask why). How do I sort it by the first letter of each entry?
And next time, you use a real literature management program like zotero (some university libraries offer classes, there is a r/zotero, etc) or jabref to create a proper bibtex file with the references. It is not that difficult, and keeps you sane (esp. if a paper has to be formatted for a different publisher). See e.g. learnlatex.

Ask HN: Who is hiring? (December 2023)
Zotero | Remote | Full-Time or Part-Time | https://www.zotero.org
Zotero is an open-source project that develops software to help people collect, organize, annotate, cite, and share their research. Our software is recommended by most universities and used by millions of students, scholars, scientists, and researchers worldwide.
We're looking for a JavaScript developer to work on Zotero "translators" — the pieces of code that let people click a button in their browser toolbar on any webpage and save high-quality metadata and files to their Zotero libraries. If you like web scraping, APIs, data formats, and exploring sites in the browser devtools, this would be up your alley. As a core Zotero developer, you'll also have the ability to work across Zotero's vast ecosystem and help shape the future of the project.
This is an open-ended contract role that can scale up and down in hours based on availability and workload.

Show HN: Odin – the integration of LLMs with Obsidian note taking
Zotero is your answer, it even auto generates your citations.
https://www.zotero.org/
Apparently there are plugins for Logseq and Obsidian as well.

Is there an equivalent of calibredb for research papers?
I use the free and open source Zotero which I think you'd find very calibre-like and manage notes and concept linking with org-roam in emacs.

Will I lose everything on Zotero?
If you can't hold the urge to know, you can check on the Zotero web library if all of your things are still there

Advice for Thesis students
Resources: ZOTERO. Zotero is a free (you can pay to get more storage), open-source citation manager with optional browser plugins. IT WILL FORMAT CITATIONS FOR YOU. (sometimes you have to edit them, but most of the time it can pull metadata and format things correctly on its own). You can sort your references into folders or with tags, read and annotate PDF copies on your computer or in a mobile app, and make notes - which I used to keep track of specific quotations I wanted to use.

Extra Reading for Archaeology / Ancient History
You can also use online resources like The Encyclopedia of Archaeological Sciences, that I think is mostly free or the Handbook of Archaeological Sciences which I think is also mostly free. If you can't get a hold of those things you can also email the authors/editors and they might send you a free copy or look them up on Academia.edu and see if they have a free version. Also, if you don't already, use Google Scholar, it's the best resource for finding free articles and topics to read. It's also never too early to start using something like Zotaro, Mendeley, or Endnote to keep track of your readings and help you with citations/references in papers. You can literally download the citation, import it into one of those systems and it automatically formats your referencing.
