I asked ChatGPT if it knew who I am based off of our chats. The answer was (obviously) yes 😅

A last little bit of swedish summer yesterday Guitar and some beers, spotted some berries, and then made a little spiky friend

Some kind of joke related to observing/measuring the back of the poster?

Found an American recipe for mac and cheese, but used västerbotten cheese that a local craft brewery put through their meat smoker for me. This was my best ever idea.

I'm getting real close to accepting this and writing an editorial for it calling the whole thing a joke

I'm always amazed at how many reddit professors view grades like this. Shouldn't grades be solely an assessment of how well the student has mastered the topic? www.reddit.com/r/Professors...

Drop the lockscreen. One of the more colourful mornings from my balcony and a peek into my music taste 😅

Entirely orange sky and orange reflection on water as seen fro. My balcony. Phone lock screen. Basket Case by Green Day playing. Update waiting to be installed that never is.

I love the light here. Also kind of mind blowing that there are people out on the ice when it seemed titally liquid a week ago 🙃

I almost want to accept one of these MDPI spam emails just because the idea of me editing *this* is kind of funny

True, it's now or 2035 😅 although tbh I don't even think the aurora is the most fascinating thing. It's actually the regular light. Must be the low angle of the sun or something, but the regular colours of the sky are something else here. (This is a particularly good morning the other day)

While the latest migration attempt is ongoing, a re-intro: I'm a mathematician in northern Sweden. I shitpost a lot and scream at the clouds about problems in academia. I also post my own memes, pics of my new arctic home, and gratuitous selfies

Ok another orange sky pic... current situation here

Steve McCormick @quasilocal.com · 03/07/2023

I know it's called *blue* sky, but I just gotta share another pic from my new pseudo-arctic home with stunning light, taken the other night around midnight on the way home from the pub

In case you're wondering how it's going back on birdsite... Last night I tweeted "a case for hiring more mathematicians", and woke up to people insulting me as if I said mathematicians should get lower salaries.
