@MartinSLewis I finished my PhD six years ago. It didn't make me a millionaire, but it made me see the world differently and become a problem solver. It opened doors that were locked to me before. Don't go to uni for a degree, go for opportunities!

Tell Us: Did u go to University? If so was it worth it to u – financially or for other reasons? Pls include what year u went (recent or long ago) and if ur willing what Uni & what you studied. Producer Matt will compile these to read out in the podcast. Pls like ur faves too.

Brighton has turned into Frighton 👻

@gianluca_memoli Was the barber Turkish? :-)

I get a new haircut every time I visit a different boardroom to pitch about #metasonixx. I have tried barbers in the black quarters of Atlanta and in front of St Paul, in London. Today it was in front of the Department if Physics in Munich, Germany :-)

@sara_brunettini Any signs of exhaustion yet? I'm enjoying every second of my first-time-parent journey, but I must admit it's the hardest "job" I've ever done 😁 My little one is two now.

I've already spent three months doing the job I'm most passionate about. 💌

@Dentoh_ Very good point - thanks for sharing! 😊

@sara_brunettini Congratulations to you and your partner! Florian is already a star 😊 Enjoy the sleepless (and joyful) nights! 😊

Little Florian made his grand entrance into the world on a stormy Monday morning after an unexpectedly long labour. We're both good tho! I'm taking a break from social media to enjoy these precious moments with my beautiful baby boy. Back soon-ish!

I enjoyed chairing a Creative Technology Research Group's session at @EngInfSussex PhD Symposium. Loads of thoughts provoking research ideas, from tackling cancer by means of interactive applications to using human-centred design to study acceptance of cryptocurrencies. 👏

@sara_brunettini Congratulations, Sara! And welcome to the club 😁

Whether it’s gonna be Twitter or not I don’t care. I’ll be offline anyway. 🤰🍼👶

I'm thrilled to be presenting my research at the Inclusive Design with Multi-Senses symposium. Looking forward to some exciting discussions around the use of smell for improving accessibility and diversity.

I will be presenting at this symposium, talking about the use of smell as an interaction modality. Please join us if you can!

@gianluca_memoli b!

Today my 9yo had his first pitching competition. He was pitching a company on renewable energies...and he won. Do you think I should a. be proud and recruit him for #metasonixx; b. take him as my mentor; c. pivot the company?

@navesinpuertos @sara_brunettini Just what I thought too

@sara_brunettini I always wonder if content creators, who also have regular jobs, have actually free time 🤔🤔

As I get older, I'm becoming more and more selective about the side projects I choose to take on. I wanna make sure that I am focusing on the right things in life and spending my "free" time wisely.

@ClemensScharti I constantly receive "breaking" news from accounts I never followed, then mostly comes a tweet about equality, and then a video of funny animals (don't remember myself ever looking for tweets about animals).

Why is it that recently literally every 2nd or 3rd feed item is a poet or comment by Elon musk although I never ever interacted with one of his posts. I only followed him months, if not years ago. Is he "fixing" the feed Algo by having it promote him ??

@philwintersberg Congrats! 👏

My students won the "most innovative project" award for their bike Sim. Sure, one can question the innovation as it's the third time that we build such a thing - but for the first time in Hagenberg, congratulations ;-)

@sara_brunettini That's a nice list! You forgot to mention that these countries are also a tiny bit sunnier and warmer than the UK 😁

@DoubleDmi If I were retiring, I'd definitely leave the UK for a more peaceful and cheap lifestyle. Italy, Spain, Portugal but also Indonesia, Thailand and Costa Rica are on my list!

👇 My two contrasting personality traits: 1⃣ I want to travel the world as a digital nomad, work for myself and retire at the age of 40. 2⃣ I want a stable income, job security and a bigger fam (preferably dogs and cats).

@Hannah_0411 @landrypascal I'm glad it was timely and that you enjoyed it, Hannah 🙂 Many thanks to Pascal!

@DoubleDmi @landrypascal It was really great time to hear his project. Thanks for providing this special lecture, @DoubleDmi 👍🙌

Gestures are fun but challenging: @landrypascal presenting his exciting work on gesture-based interaction and beyond for #HCISussex

@sara_brunettini Congratulations!!! Networking pays off 😉

Just signed a year-long contract with a client! 🎉🥳 Never been so grateful to have profitable side projects. My job situation at ♾ is still unclear, but at least I can rely on my network of clients and connections.

@DrTNowotny Rishi needs to pay back to his supporters, apparently, whose votes were crucial in him becoming a PM.

Can someone explain this to me: Suella Braverman made a mistake so serious that she resigned as Home secretary. 10 days later she is appointed to the new cabinet... As the Home secretary!?!
