@Dr_CMingarelli @GeminiApp Yep I got the same. Professors are clearly male

Not so excellent for @GeminiApp either. At least it got my favorite coffee right. And my dog.

@Romy_Holland I’ve done it often. Firstly be prepared to play for 2 hours at 2 am or some time. However they are more resilient because they can adapt the nap length to get enough sleep. They adapt to the new time zone much more quickly. Once they are older you can use melatonin.

while everyone’s talking about traveling with a baby, how do you manage jet lag? we’re likely going to japan soon, and i can handle a 12 hour flight but a 16 hour time difference sounds awful. i never see anyone talking about this so maybe it’s not so bad?

@mindyisser Try going in with a 3 year old and suitcases …

i’m not an architect but if you were designing an airport bathroom, wouldn’t you make the doors open OUT instead of IN considering everyone is taking their luggage into the stall

@Yuchenj_UW The research that earned the 2025 Nobel prize was done at UC Berkeley not Google.

Google has won 3 Nobel Prizes in just 2 years: >2024: Demis Hassabis (AlphaFold), Geoff Hinton (AI) >2025: Michel & Jone (Quantum Computing) No other tech company matches Google’s long-term research taste and ambition. Not Apple, Microsoft, or Amazon. The real question: when will the Transformer earn its Nobel Prize?

@UofCalifornia @UCBerkeley @ucsantabarbara Perhaps you should wait until the end of Nobel prize season before updating the count?

UPDATE: Make that 74 Nobelists! This morning John Clarke, an emeritus professor of physicsat @UCBerkeley, along with Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis, two of Clarke's former graduate students, both of whom are now faculty at @UCSantaBarbara, were awarded the 2025 @NobelPrize in Physics for their work studied quantum tunneling, one of many strange aspects of quantum mechanics.

“I’m completely stunned, it never occurred to me that it would be the basis of a Nobel Prize.” New physics laureate John Clarke was completely surprised when he discovered he had been awarded this year's Nobel Prize in Physics. At this morning's press conference he reflected on his prize-awarded research: “Our discovery is in some way the basis of quantum computing.” #NobelPrize

“I can’t imagine accepting the prize without them.” In this interview shortly after the prize announcement, new physics laureate John Clarke is still stunned by the news. He praises his co-laureates John Martinis and Michel Devoret, who he worked together with at a lab in Berkeley, California, some 40 years ago. Clarke recollects the many discussions and extensive work that eventually led to their Nobel Prize-awarded discoveries. “It took us a long time to get all of this worked out. None of this work would have happened without the two of them.” Listen to the interview here. #NobelPrize

Waking up to a Nobel prize for Berkeley this morning! Big congratulations to all. Going to be fun working with the students on the Josephson Junction experiment today.

Today’s schedule at the European Strategy Meeting for Particle Physics starts at 9 am and ends at 8 pm!

@DrAllyLouks @rats4friends I ❤️ vinted

@rats4friends I got it on Vinted for £30 🧸

1.5 hours hard apparently

Waiting more than an hour on the ground at @flySFO after landing. Is it really so hard to get people off a plane?

CERN's experiments are global efforts. The 2025 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics honors over 13,000 researchers whose labors have led to the precise description the Higgs mechanism, the discovery of dozens of new particles, analysis of rare processes and matter-antimatter asymmetry and exploration of nature at the shortest distances and most extreme conditions. breakthroughprize.org/News/91 @CERN

CERN's secular challenge: Can we predict what technologies will be available 50 years from now that could make high-energy colliders radically different — or even obsolete? And can we even imagine what questions physicists will be asking in 2070? #FCC nature.com/articles/d4158…

@MSharifpourMD Try it with a baby in tow 🤣

Getting out of the Aspen airport is an extreme sport

@MSharifpourMD @Delta The issue is the altitude of Aspen airport that makes it difficult for planes to take off. This happens quite often there in my experience.

On @delta plane that is supposed to go to Aspen from LAX. They are surprised that the plane is overweight because of all the ski bags! Wow, shocking: a flight to Aspen is full of ski bags and those ski bags are heavy! Who would have ever guessed! They are looking for volunteers to get off the plane! Good luck

Whoa: support.microsoft.com/en-us/skype/sk…. So much of ATLAS communication goes via Skype.

It begins

First time talking about my own death in a physics talk 🤣

@Airport_FRA So, yes overall highly unpleasant on a day when the airport was basically empty.

@Airport_FRA Then, at the screening machine they wanted my now screaming daughter to stand while I went through alone.

Hey @Airport_FRA, thanks for making things more difficult for those traveling with little ones. Manual screening with sleeping baby, not possible. Asking to file a complaint, I was given a document instead of being allowed to talk to the six folks at the counter doing nothing.
