i feel compelled to remind everyone that chatgpt/LLMs are functionally the *opposite* of an actual expert.
the more your problems are unusual or novel, the more likely LLMS are to be wrong. they are least helpful when it's most important

Gone are the days of waking up early to run before a conference talk, staying out until midnight with FOMO after the last talk. Glad for conferences that fill my science cup, but also glad to be going home to a squishy baby who thinks mom is an android in the baby monitor waking her up.

Candy review: nerd gummy clusters are good on a long run, but they're so small you have to eat a LOT to replace 'normal' running fuel and that's almost not worth the hassle. Do they make large nerd gummy clusters that hit somewhere between the halloween size and a rope?

My brother came to the sibling wedding this last weekend with a full mullet and i've never been more proud of how committed he was to the bit. His whole outfit was the mullet theme: pearl snap western shirt, almost bolo tie, just chef's kiss.

After a weirdly hostile meeting (weird because I thought that was like...unprofessional and didn't happen these days), my students made my day with their weather observation assignment on yesterday's landspout and lightning. They're finally seeing all the things we talk about in class.

Today I share my 5-year PhD Defense-aversary with my child's 1st birthday. She did try to steal my thunder, but there's enough lightning puns to go around.

I'm feeling especially nostalgic this time of year - one year ago we were driving to the eclipse and was about to eject our 3rd family member.
