Seems that #pyhf has finally creeped over the 200 citations on INSPIRE recently. :) 🎉 inspirehep.net/literature?q... inspirehep.net/literature/1... Nice little milestone for us all to celebrate, @lukasheinrich.com, @giordonstark.com, @kylecranmer.bsky.social. Cheers!

NEW: NSF will be kicked out of their building. Announcement will be made tomorrow by HUD Sec. and Governor of VA. HUD will take over the NSF building over the next two years. NSF staffer: "There is no planning for NSF, no identified future location, appropriation for a new building or a move."

🚨 Practical URGENT tip for NSF grantees: Out of an abundance of caution, I would right now go into Research.gov and… 1. Download your NSF award letters. 2. Print PDF your annual reports. 3. Screenshot the status table for annual reports. NSF is planning maintenance tomorrow to Research.gov
Due to maintenance, Research.gov (including access to NSF-PAR, GRFP, PES, and ETAP) will be unavailable from Fri., 4/25 at 10:00 PM ET to Sat., 4/26 at 1:00 PM ET. NSF apologizes for any inconvenience.

Hey, guess what? This 🤡 is still doing the same thing at another colloquium. #APS did nothing. #Snowmass did nothing. Yet the #Physics community continues to give him a platform to spout his anti-accessibility rhetoric.

finished another #pyhf tutorial - this time at UH Manoa (University of Hawai'i).

Cross-section measurements for the production of a $W$-boson in association with high-transverse-momentum jets in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$= 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector
A set of measurements for the production of a $W$-boson in association with high-transverse-momentum jets is presented using 140 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of...

it's hard to say if this is a session break or not (I assume so) but the autocraptions don't indicate anything... If there were actual Deaf attendees there in person, they would not be able to rely on this for any sort of announcements that are important for logistics or safety.

It is absolutely important to have embargos on important announcements that impact your future career in particle physics. So definitely don't read science.osti.gov/-/media/hep/hepap/… before the meeting happens.

It's really weird to see a new HEP Faculty position open up at $INSTITUTE for a job you applied to already, got short-listed, and never got rejected. So instead of using the same short list to hire, they just do a new search instead? Ok...

If you are an email provider of longer than 10 years (such as say.. @CERN), you might want to consider that you have the obligation of not trying to screw up your users workflows and making sweeping changes to the email that forces your users to constantly re-adapt.

The following places I applied to for a physics faculty position (2022-2023 cycle) never bothered to let me know if I was rejected or not: SMU, Harvard, UBC, Princeton, JHU, and UCSD. I don't understand why this is still a thing. Just send a courtesy email...

Need to dump this very niche, but useful knowledge for everyone else's benefit who uses #docker. This is a 🧵about #zombies (not the flesh-eating kind!) First, for context, when you spin up a docker image, the #CMD is your PID 1 process, e.g. a webserver or a database. 1/5
