Universities who do oral exams should coach their students in oral exams. Some people get it, how to perform and what to perform, and some people just don't, and it's much easier for everyone when you know what's going on. It's not about nervousness, it's about knowing what's being asked of you and what your tools are. We need to teach people this.
"I do think I have a better insight than the president of the company". What does that mean. I don't understand the mental model. He thinks that trends are so strong, so deterministic, that the people in charge have no say?

Day two. I'm less nervous, more reluctant.
They used the "human shields" justification for attacking Iranian state broadcasting? And Bibi wants to assassinate Khamenei? What a legacy. Paid for in the blood of both nations.

Can you merge conf.researchr.org profiles? I apparently have two under different emails.
The adrenaline has left. I feel bad and I never want to do anything ever again.
Giving people their grades was an experience. I found it deeply unpleasant at first, but at the same time that did not matter one bit —there's not any room for that— because the moment wasn't about me. I had to just suppress that fight-or-flight response and remain the authority.
It's been a long time since I got anything but a top grade at an oral exam.
This feels like a disadvantage when dishing out grades at an oral exam.
"Lancaster" would be a better name for a wifi router. It broadcasts a local area network
We're not at PhD defense levels, but we're up there.
I've killed my inner child and put on a bra.
I wonder if we have a similar Danish dialect.
Past participles are so dead.
