I have extended family in Australia and New Zealand that I should frankly care more about keeping up with on Facebook, but nobody posts there anymore. Nobody but Andrew.

I'm pretty sure Dom's not going to start putting up adverts like "new theyfe wanted, minimum 20 years quantum mechanics experience", but it would qualify us as having the world's funniest divorce.

Don't worry guys I did do the diagram with the photons hitting the electron to try and explain Heisenburg's uncertainty theorem, but unfortunately had to then say "uuh the quantum people do say that it's not just that, and it's like, a more fundamental thing though. Idk what they mean." Humilliating

Update: Dom (husband) has started saying stuff like "I'm with Andrew Pontzen on this one, I've decided Dark Matter might be real" for the express purpose of annoying me

You in next week to sign them? 👀

And hopefully they'll stop asking when I'm going to get a "real job"

I know, I've tried things like clearing cookies and not had it work, but it might work for you. It is super annoying to constantly have to switch browser.

I've been having this for months. The only thing that solves it for me is looking at the webpage on private browsing mode.

I will, of course, be peppering the firehose comment into conversations at conferences going forward.

- AI host trying to make noises of extreme excitement, but the noises are somehow... wrong
- "oh you tease. We'll pick that back up after the break. We're back from the break, what were you saying?"
- AI hosts breathing, but it sounds weirdly... wrong.

You know what, that might be it lol

It just looks like this forever (PLEASE IGNORE MY INTENSELY GRUBBY SCREEN I PROMISE IT'S JUST THE LIGHTING!!!)
