I hope you are doing well lemouth! I hear all kinds of worring news from Europe and I am sure you hear all kind of alarming news from across the pond as well. But with all that we are all here so that is comforting after all.

I am fine. Thanks for asking! Indeed, the world seems to collapse from everywhere at the same time. 2025 will be, let's say, 'interesting'...
My absence is correlated to the fact that there are only 24 hours a day, and 7 days a week. Local responsibilities at the university increased significantly during the last few years. This was by choice, so this is not a complaint. My new responsibilities are related to a lot of super-interesting duties, allowing me for instance to help hundreds of kids (well, young adults) with the beginning of their professional life, and actively participating in re-shaping how to educate future physicists after high-school. Obviously, this also comes with less interesting time-consuming tasks, but there is no free lunch.
In exchange of all of that, and I had no other option but cutting down on some other things. At the beginning, I was still hoping being capable to maintain my blog and have an active life within the HIVE community, but it turned out that no. The rest takes a lot of space, and I refuse to impact my family life. Therefore, I had to reduce a bit the time used for research, and the only thing I can regularly do with respect to HIVE is to think I would love to pass by and say hi... I will not promise to do it today, but I think about it every other week.
What about you? How are you?
