13 years ago I bought a notebook during ICAP in Australia. Haven't regularly used it but recently reactivated it. What better occasion could there have been than filling the last pages with notes from Mark Kasevich's colloquium. What an honor to present to him!

Terrestrial Very Long Baseline Atom Interferometry workshop at CERN, including a view of Mont Blanc during lunch.

Today, I will opt out of any email communication. Yet another email asking to peer review work that's clearly out of my expertise was the drop that filled the bucket.

Not to speak about the perpetuum mobile giving you vouchers for publishing your own work after you have reviewed something.

Not to speak about the insane amount of "special issues", one of which I was recently asked to co-edit while there's an ongoing one on exactly the same topic edited by a colleague.

No more words needed when you see the attached figure which I shamelessly stole from this fantastic article recommended by a friend.

disappointing thread on #twitter (which I won't link to) of several scientists saying they can't be bothered joining mastodon because it's too much effort to follow two services...this is an incredibly blinkered view of what is happening here.

Over at the facility in Hannover we could use a hand for commencing operations of the 10m baseline! Please check out the newly opened position here:

Sharing highly appreciated!
