Happy Things

Recently, my team started growing, so all of a sudden it makes sense to organise regular team meetings, just like a grown-up PI. Our most recent meeting took place today and I felt so proud. What a nice bunch of people. And so many interesting research projects! 🤩
How did this happen?

  2. the #MMEE2024 in Vieanna in July
    (https://ps-mathematik.univie.ac.at/e/index.php?event=mmee2024)

  3. and the annual meeting of the sfe2 in Lyon in October
    (https://sfe2-2024.fr/en, @sfe2_2024 )

@vicgrinberg I'm quite interested in point number 1... was it planned to span three years? Were sessions frequent? How did it end?
I didn't meet neighbor's cat today so I had no chance to pet anyone.

@dmbaturin it was a mix of a somewhat ambitious campaign mixed with extremely limited availability of folks, I think we played once every two months recently. I would not recommend this approach (and we now think that the next take will be strictly episodic), but I'm glad we played it to the end!

@vicgrinberg I only got through one pair of trousers at work today! (Yesterday was an aberration anyway, liquid yeast agar all down them just before lunch...)

@vicgrinberg@mastodon.social avatar

@_thegeoff awww, you made me laugh 😁 (I hope you did have some extra clothes at work; I usually have in my office because Dutch rain 😅)
