240416 – I had a medical procedure this morning that ran long, so I didn't have time to finish today's lecture. Rather than winging it (even more so than normal) I will make this into an asynchronous lecture but there won't be a live lecture today. There also won't be a lecture on Thursday due to a field test at NASA, so use the class times this week to work on your term projects. Next week will be live plus one or more taped lectures to make up for some of the ones I've missed.
240402 – Due to a doctor's appointment and a trip to the eclipse, there will be no in-class lectures this Thursday 4/4 or next Tuesday 4/9. Use the time to work on your term projects.
240307 – So I'm not sure what is happening with the second homework, but I think we've extracted what knowledge we can from it - please turn in whatever you have (there is a Gradescope for it) and I'm going to go over what everyone did and figure out what's going on. Sorry for the confusion.
240220 – There is (or at least should be) a Gradescope site for submitting the first homework linked on the ELMS page
