First group lunch (ever)! New group and quarantine delayed this, but we finally got out to celebrate our post-bach, Quynh's last day with the lab.

When I'm giving someone directions in the car, they're like CDC guidelines: they change unexpectedly and require rapid adjustments


Proud and excited to be sending my first fab run of devices to my group's collaborators, and even more excited to send them in a @Thorlabs snack box

Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan just posted record profits. A 0.1 percent tax on financial transactions – just $1 per $1,000 traded – would raise $777 billion over a decade -- enough to provide housing vouchers to all homeless people in America more than 12 times over.


I'm with Klaus on "Spicy" 🌶

What is Quantum Physics in one word? We asked experts at the Quantum Flagship to tell us which is the word that better describes quantum physics, and these are their answers. Which is yours? #WorldQuantumDay



Pretty sure 90% of my understanding of Git is from Stack Overflow


Evernote must have added rule lines to sketches between when I tried it, last and when I decided today I'm done with OneNote. Very satisfied.

A measurement @Fermilab of the muon magnetic moment agrees with a longstanding @BrookhavenLab result, boosting tension with the standard-model #gminus2 theory prediction to 4.2 standard deviations. Letter: journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1… #openaccess

In 1903, Marie Curie became the first woman in France to earn a PhD in physics. The professors who reviewed her doctoral thesis on radiation declared it “the greatest single contribution to science ever written”. It’s time for a thread on the “Mother of Modern Physics”👇👇👇


When someone asks me why I do integrated optics

when someone asks you what it's like to work with lasers
