wild story from ACS Council floor about the computer-assisted transcription at #acsfall2026 background: in each session room, there is a large screen offering transcription of what the speaker says

I started my lab in 2022 like the author of this piece. I got a dog shortly after signing my first academic permanent contract. (1/..)

"I’d spent all afternoon figuring out how to keep dozens of consortium partners happy, and I was now deep in the thankless task of cutting budgets … But just then an unlikely lab member offered a reprieve: my dog, Zazil." #InternationalDogDay https://scim.ag/4evO2cN

conference hangover: reimbursement paperwork..🫠 AI can only do so much sadly, still lots of tedious data input on clunky platforms or odious forms. #chemsky #academicsky does anyone have a good system for this?

Excited to be in the next installment of the @omsf.io Stack Tour in Chicago August 27! Register to participate in a free hands-on tutorial delivered by MDAnalysis core developers, @ialibay.bsky.social and @micaelamatta.bsky.social.

Finding out a big grant was unsuccessful is bad, but finding out while on a zoom call is terrible 😭😭😭

Happy 8th birthday Bobbie! My best friend, 🥇 #postdog, mental health advocate, park superstar 💗

tl;dr I got a education #award 🥹 my kind colleagues nominated me - thank you all for your patience in dealing with my endless questions and having to learn the ropes from scratch in the past 4 years. You are the best 🥇 #chemsky

Self promotion is so exhausting 😭🫠

Yes, self promotion sucks, academics, but if you don’t do it nobody will find out about your work. The point is to publish and be read, not publish and hope you are discovered by fate, lifted out of a humble and pure obscurity so that you may be both famous and retiring
