@NancySBWilliams I think a lot of people are about to learn about the midwestern DFL. Walz's ideology is much more consistent than many realize.

@ChemLABerben Congrats! Excited to read it

Has anyone created a handbook for undergraduate students in their lab? We want to formalize the process when a new student joins and include things like procedures that are safe to do independently, expectations for presentations, etc.

@FromPhDtoLife I used to say it was my dream but I would evaluate if it was realistic when the time came. Even if it were realistic for me, seeing how my boss has to spend his time made me realize how different the reality of the job is.

@ambeedinfo I started ordering stuff from Ambeed a couple years ago and now so much of my stuff is Ambeed. My coworker would flip out if you sent chocolate, but sticky notes or pens would 100% be used

@ndchiappini @MoleculesGoHard It’s really annoying but the best luck I’ve had is to go to the author’s website and some of them post pdf links that aren’t behind a paywall. Usually main text only unfortunately

@lxeagle17 I’m a progressive/leftist from Pa. I voted for Fetterman in the primaries in 2018 (Lt Gov) and ‘22. I’ve always viewed him as the most agreeable candidate that could win in a general, but not the most left-leaning candidate we could’ve nominated.

@SchuethAnna I have a science account and a politics/personal account. I use them more as curated RSS feeds at this point

@NaOHBartfield I judge the likelihood a synthesis works by the number of columns expected.

@heydebigale We had to memorize it for my undergrad inorganic course, but we learned it one group at a time. Doing it by group makes it a lot easier imo

@Minzhu_Zou Congrats on the paper! Very interesting work

[Brice Kessler @brice_kessler]

@fiona_chembot How about CAM-B3LYP?

@amorri28 I wouldn’t classify CN as an organic ligand, my view is organics have C-H bonds.

@NancySBWilliams Seeing you and so many other out and proud scientists was/is so impactful and helped me show the world my authentic self. As each year passes, I hope the visibility of LGBTQ+ scientists continues increasing and inspiring the next generation

@cathleencrudden Even within a hiring committee, there are different opinions on what is needed

@iridium_tea If you run enough computation, you start getting good at multiplying everything by 627.5

@ArthurHWinter @SchelterGroup @IAlabugin We gave it a nod in my recent paper I believe, interesting work from that group ;)

[Brice Kessler @brice_kessler]

@SchelterGroup @IAlabugin Would you venture as far as including pi dimers? Bonding is just so complex, hard to make a correct rule without several exceptions

@ndchiappini As long as they’ve been accused of insider trading, only qualification needed in NJ

@NancySBWilliams @iridium_tea Based on 2018/20/22 and potentially 24, they are reticent to change
