Getting paid to talk about your favourite thing is pretty rad

It is too early on a Monday to be called out this hard

I don't know what's more nostalgia-inducing here, the movie choice or the Famous Players theatre!

On the flip side, about half the time when you give a seminar it'll think you swam really slowly for that time, so it all balances out I guess!

These are great! Re: minutia (often math in my world), I like extra slides at the end with those extra details – not in the main talk, but on hand if needed. It helps especially for newer students who are nervous about remembering everything in the Q&A but don't want to bog down the main story.

Scratch directly has failed

I tag emails into folders but keep them in my inbox for a while (because I suffer a LOT from "out of sight, out of mind" otherwise). Then periodically I go through and archive to get them out of the inbox, but keep them in their specific folders.

This is such a cool response from your students!

Yeah, I've mostly slept through nighttime earthquakes but this one woke me up over in north Berkeley!

Very excited to read where this work wound up going!

may take you up on that depending on what my student says :) this is super helpful already though, as someone who didn't go through the labs myself but know a few students interested in them

That's actually helpful! I wanted to make sure these postings weren't, like, "no later than January" or something similar. Thanks!

Hey, mind if I ask what the start date would be for this position (or really the LANL postdoc positions in general)? Trying to figure out if this is relevant timing-wise for a couple of students I know :)

ohhhh still fuming over this

Okay ladies, now let's get in formation
