@DrRituRaman So true!

[Elizabeth Livingston @_LizLiv_]

During my PhD there has been:
1. A global pandemic
2. A major flood in our building displacing us for 2 months
3. A network/internet outage on the first day of a new semester

To be fair the last one has the shortest and smallest impact on me, it's just...wild.

@DrRituRaman The Flyaway to Union Station and then the train, or maybe the Fly Away to Van Nuys and then a ride share to save time. FlyAway to Van Nuys is always 45 minutes no matter how bad the traffic is, it’s crazy.

Tomorrow's (Thur, July 19, 3pm CST) the big day for @sgmoshage - she will be presenting her PhD defense on the effect of exercise when young in a lovely dual-benefit equine model. Excellent work on multi-scale mechanics. DM for a zoom link.

Amazing lectures and books on linear algebra!

Another article celebrating Gilbert Strang – SIAM member, Fellow, former President, and a revered #mathematician – as he retires from @MIT! SIAM is honored to distribute his textbooks, which have impacted countless students. Best wishes in retirement, Gil!

We are organizing a @CRIMSONsoftware workshop @ 𝟏𝟕𝐭𝐡 𝐔𝐒𝐍𝐂𝐂𝐌.

With @DrMalipeddi & @jesse_caps we will present a new Euler-Lagrange formulation for particle-laden flows in unstructured grids. See you in Albuquerque!

Forgot sunglasses for my eye appointment, the sun hurts

First in person conference of my PhD and for IACM since COVID hit! I might be on my own, but I think I Cannes handle the location! 🇫🇷#CFC2023

I refuse to fill out a form saying whether or not I am striking, that was not part of my contract. I filled out my effort certification, which is a regular requirement.

Two storms in two weeks is a reminder: Public utilities like water, gas, and electric should be provided by government, not private companies more interested in profit than storm preparation.

Oh and internet should be considered a public utility.

Being able to get ready together was really fun. And we got to wear our wedding clothes twice!

[Elizabeth Livingston @_LizLiv_]

2022. The year with 2 Two-sday. We loved it so much we had to get married twice!

Then in Rio Grande do Sul for our Brazilian family and friends.

Universities: Please stop installing glass, partially reflective white boards. They don't work and decent dry erase markers look dead on them. At this point I would rather have a chalk board. #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter

Looked at my first HW from a little over two months ago and completely forgot that I wrote a ReadME for my code. Takes so little time for me to forget things...

When you team up with the right Postdoc for your PhD

This happened in Japan. Yes they were recording the descent already and happened to approach a cub with the adult above.

It was a long night but I’m glad I was able to get home. Nothing nearly as crazy had me stuck in LA for 4 days when traveling on a “budget” airline

Approximately 13,000 bird strikes per year in the US. I just got first hand experience. (After a 3 hr delay because of mechanical issues)

[Elizabeth Livingston @_LizLiv_]

Major props to @Delta for finding us 3 different planes last night and for the fast meal voucher after the first mechanical delay. The crew was really nice and had a good attitude and humor about the situation.
