@martinmuc @ErikUden : Mir ist grad aufgefallen, daß im #TroetCafe ein Fehler kommt, wenn man die Seite mit den Ankündigungen aufruft (nutze Tusky unter entgoogeltem Android).

@Wetterhexe @martinmuc @ErikUden Bei mir in Tusky genauso.
Vorher war es in Tusky komischerweise immer so, dass ich für die neuste Ankündigung ganz nach unten scrollen musste @Tusky .

@rooster In a round of physics PhDs we just discussed the theory that only people with low self-esteem go for a PhD (not sure how I feel about that)... So maybe he was just cool with who he was already?

Holidays, finally!
So I continue my tour of European capitals after having been in London earlier this month... Now, #Paris!

The glass pyramids and some part of the Louvre buildings in the background.
A photograph of the Eiffel tower seen from the ground.
A photo across the Seine river looking at a beautiful bridge with golden ornaments.

Visited the #Curie museum (#MuseeCurie) in #Paris today. It's tiny, but really cool to see this collection on the lives of the Curie family with their three Nobel prize winners. And you can see Marie Curie's office and lab from the time when she was head of the Curie Laboratory!
Also: A quarter of her staff of ca. 40 people were women! In the 1930's! #WomenInSTEM

Photo of the Curie lab. Many big glass objects on a tiled table give the appearance of a chemistry lab. A black dress in the background looks like the one Marie wears on the famous photos from her in the lab.
A golden badge on a wooden box says in capital letters "Presented by the president of the united states of America on behalf of the women of America to Madame Marie Sklodowska-Curie in recognition of her transcendent service to science and to humanity in the discovery of radium. The White House, Washington D.C., May twentieth, nineteen twenty-one". The box with this sign contained 1 gram of pure radium that the women of America bought for the giant amount of 100000 dollars.

The look on #MarieCurie's face when she learns that women are still not treated equally in science more than hundred years after her success:

@ErikUden Vielen Dank für die gute Arbeit und klare Kommunikation!
Seit einigen Monaten funktioniert die automatische Löschung von alten Posts bei mir nicht mehr (Posts sind teilweise 2 Monate über meinem Limit). Kann das irgendwie mit der alten Version zusammenhängen, d.h. wird es gelöst, wenn ihr mit dem Update fertig seid?

When in London... always check if there is a great exhibition happening, especially in the Tate Britain.

(And now I'm all homesick for Boston...)

Brain: Must work, write & prepare slides for dissertation defense in just 3 weeks! 😬

Puppy: But look at me! ❤️ (And if you don’t I’ll surely get up to more mischief) 🐾

ditsch42, 3 months ago

@Sheril Just put this photo in your dissertation slides, it will also distract the referees if they're remotely human!

@vicgrinberg I just got one last week and it's so good!

ditsch42, 5 months ago

@vicgrinberg I should definitely learn from this and not endure bad situations until they become totally unbearable :'D

Wish you all a very nice set of holidays! Don't get phished and always stay vigilant. Remember: Calories can be quite the malicious payload at times.

If you're German speaking, don't miss my science based (!) talk about the history, mechanisms and protection against social engineering at #37C3 this year on Dec 29. Will post links when the time has come.

For now, I hope your workload is done for the year and you can chill a bit. Get drunk, do drugs, cuddle a reindeer (or a loved one, if you have to). You know, the good things.

I might (not a promise, though) reduce my posting here for a few days.

Here's to the future on the elephant network :)

ditsch42, 5 months ago

@odr_k4tana The same to you!
Where can I find a reindeer to cuddle?

@vicgrinberg @katzenschiff I tried this salad with red lentils last week and was positively surprised by the very distinct mix of tastes from mustard, balsamico and maple syrup (and I'm sure the Feta can easily be replaced with a vegan version): https://www.chefkoch.de/rezepte/3703631559664025/Rote-Linsensalat-mit-Feta.html
