@DaresburyLab @STFC_Matters @PsiQuantum @HartreeCentre @SciTechgovuk @SciTecDaresbury @LpoolCityRegion Ah, the „Science“ minister.

[Mike Galsworthy @mikegalsworthy]

This person is not fit to be the UK Science Minister.

She has no clue about what simple facts are. It’s embarrassing for UK science.

@thriftycars in ORD. Total disaster. 2 counters occupied at the car rental and 20+ groups ahead of me. This will take hours. Maybe I should walk to the city, might be faster. They knew how many rentals they would have. Really bad management. 🤢🤮

This is what I get from Google when travelling in Spain.

@HeXiang125 @chrisquigg Sure and the earth is flat.

We are still #hiring! Know anyone who might be interested? https://t.co/VOAqhMYd2n

@wortakrobat68 @Lufthansa_DE Yes, was not happy either. My flight from MAD to FRA was cancelled on Friday and it was impossible to get anybody on the phone. Was able to rebook with a chat bot and spend the night in Lisbon Airport for a 5 AM flight to FRA.

And she’s the current Foreign Secretary FFS.

Absolutely idiotic.

[Annette Dittert  @annettedittert]

Elegant.

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

This is brilliant.

Fantastic event that I used to help organising. Come and join us, if you are in the area. You will be entertained and might even learn something. https://t.co/u9cWzjMWDk

@drbecky_ Congratulations! Well deserved. And enjoy the freedom it gives you.👏👍

[Alfons Weber @AlfonsWeber]

@GirtonCollege @Cambridge_Uni Many congratulations from me as well.

[Alfons Weber @AlfonsWeber]

@joachimkopp @wooksteroo Fantastic, thanks for sharing. I am missing that view.

[Alfons Weber @AlfonsWeber]

@nichol77 Fantastic result! You made it. You look like s... your grandfather. I am VERY impressed!

[Alfons Weber @AlfonsWeber]

@nichol77 You look like your own grandfather. Congratulations for the fantastic effort.

Today 25 Sept is the equilux - 12 hours light 12hours dark - not to be confused with the equinox - East/West rise and set on 22nd. Reasons: sun is a disk, refraction raises the disk by more than its diameter. #equilux #equinox

[Alfons Weber @AlfonsWeber]

@closefrank Didn't hear about that one before.

[Alfons Weber @AlfonsWeber]

You are interested in neutrino physics and developing new detectors? I may have a job or a PhD place for you. More details can be found here. #hiring

@closefrank @Pocket I saw this quite some time age. Of course, the final formula is the same, but he found a new way to derive it.
But still I found the entire publicity over the top. I am underwhelmed.
