Not getting impostor syndrome in computer science 101:

Just try telling the maths postdoc "I don't get what this means" to find that their answer is "To understand it formally, one requires taking two full courses on computability theory and complexity theory."

@elmerot @NurseMich @phdlife @academicchatter @academiccommunity It’s the same for us; I even created the thesis monitoring committee report format myself. When I asked my advisor how often I should report to him when I started working on my thesis, he said, “I don’t need you; you need me, so call me when you need to!” 😲

Today in about my resignation from University of Copenhagen. During my campaigns I was often told to “take care of myself” to which I always responded “what about the radical suggestion that we started to take care of each other?”. Threats from management are predictable, but the silence of one’s colleagues are devastating. @academicchatter timeshighereducation.com/news/

I have recently resigned my position as PhD fellow at University of Copenhagen due to threats and sexism from my management that came as a reaction to my campaigns and in DK. But I’m not done with my project and I will finish my research on how to govern ‘awesome societies’. @academicchatter khrono.no/sier-opp-og-tar-et-k

Got the only holiday gift I wanted, an email that my scholarship application passed internal adjudication and has officially been received by the funding body. Now, three months or so of holding my breath until I find out if I get it or not. If I get it, I can afford to stay in my program, if not, time for plan b.
