I heard last week that the physics teacher of the daughter of one of my colleagues told the daughter that girls who do their nails don’t do physics.

@freyablekman
Gorgeous!
You had them done somewhere, I presume?@axel yeah this I cannot do myself, it involves magnets (and UV light for setting the glitter pigments)

“Girls? In my field of study?” It's more likely than you think!
-
You have to break out the two parts to mathematics: applied and theoretical
@GhostOnTheHalfShell @afewbugs or the ten kinds of physics... haha, it's academia, everyone claims they're a singular diamond that created a new sub-sub-subdiscipline. If only because that's how you get funding .

@freyablekman NGL your nails are cool AF

@freyablekman @afewbugs
And that doesn't mess with nails?I'm no particle physicist, but I'm fairly sure you're supposed to keep your hands away from the beam.
-
@nachtet @freyablekman @afewbugs someone design a nail polish that changes color when you bombard it with neutrons
Problem: bombarding things with neutrons makes them radioactive.

I hate this "you can be beautiful or clever, not both" trope ...
-
@freyablekman but you obviously don't do elementary physics
@bonkers lol yeah. check out deez nails. Can't be possible.

@freyablekman, woah, these are amazing nails! @dcoderlt

@freyablekman my PhD is in chemistry, but I work in photonics (physics! lasers!) and these were my nails I got done for the last conference I attended
When I read “photonics” my first thought was the snarky holographic doctor on Star Trek.
Lasers are fun too, though! -

Holy guacamole, those nails are awesome! 🤩 -
@freyablekman the nails of a programmer with 20 years on the job
Woah, awesome!
Also, your nick always brings a smile to my face whenever I see it

@freyablekman As a cis-man, I don't even undrstand how you can achieve such a level of greatness (and I neither imagine how much time it can take).
These are really incredible. -

These are really incredible.@Riduidel well someone made these, and it wasn't me. Nail tech is a real job. And they can make some nails for you as well - even as a cis man

@freyablekman The teacher mentioned a correlation, you’re suggesting causation, which wasn’t claimed. The teacher said "girls" and obviously meant "many girls among his students", which you misunderstandood as "all female persons anywhere". As a leading scientist you should know better.

@freyablekman
Wait! I am in meteorology (aka atmospheric physics), specialising in cloud microphysics!
My nails are not as shiny as yours, but hey - with polish
(And I am "only" assistant professor, so still have time to ramp up my nail polishing skills before I become a full professor!) -
