If you are an academic who constantly feels under stress due to work, here's a simple tip that may help you.

Once Joseph Heller, the famous American novelist, best known for his 1961 satirical novel "Catch-22" was at a party in New York.

Kurt Vonnegut, another famous novelist, was there too. Vonnegut told Heller that their host — a billionair, hedge fund manager — made more money in a day than his bestselling novel Catch-22 over the course of its publishing career.

Heller replied, "Yes, but I have something he [the billionaire] will never have...enough."

Heller's insight about having "enough" is such a powerful idea it may change the way you look at the world.

Say, you get up in the morning, read a paper or two, and write a couple hundred words. Then you do you house chores and spend some time with your family.

At the end of the day, you can choose to look at what you did in two ways.

You can either say to yourself: I should've read another paper or written a few more words. I should've done more.

This will make you feel unsatisfied and insecure. And you will end up resenting your work sooner or later.

Or, you can tell yourself: I did "enough" for today. Tomorrow, I will try to do it again.

This will make you feel satisfied with the day.

No matter how you look at your day, the amount of work you do will remain the same.

Get your work done for the day. Then choose enough and feel satisfied. Do it again the next day and the next...

Now I know why...

Most rejection mails come in late at night or early in the morning. They don't want you to immediately see it. They hit send then shut down their PCs and slide beneath their bed covers, fleeing the guilt of what they just did. It's the height of unkindness and they know it.

Life update: Two of my posters have been accepted at SOUPS'23.

I am grateful to @USENIXSecurity and @SOUPSConference for awarding me the student grant. So excited about attending the conference for the very first time.

@rakib062 We published a position paper on this topic at the Design x Policy, a CHI'23 workshop. You can find the paper here: https://t.co/NaUkMC544W

Today, I presented my current research at the ASU Cybersecurity Symposium. It was an incredible experience.

My supervisor @rakib062 took the picture in the midst of the presentation.

.@twitterdev finally announced the new Twitter API access tiers. Sadly, it’s no longer feasible to build tools and perform research using the API. This change will affect all our research projects and tools, including @botometer, Hoaxy, and Fakey.

#NoResearchWithoutAPI
