Sunday afternoon at the kitchen counter. Two lectures to build and one set of exercises to grade, both landing Thursday.
Four hours. No student ever sees this part, and there is no line in my contract that describes it.
It is just what Wednesday costs.

AI may accelerate some research tasks by an order of magnitude, but science is more than productivity.
Mentoring students, developing expertise and passing on scientific culture remain central to the research enterprise.

In early October, Rosa Fina, one of IHC's science managers, participated in the #ReData workshop ‘Fundamentals of Data Curation’ at the University of Coimbra.
This has enabled us to improve our capacity for research data management and compliance with #FAIR principles. 💪

Many academic papers could be half as long—or less. But we write them to be self-contained and accessible to a broad scholarly audience, so we repeat background, define well-known terms, pad the argument just to be safe. And then publishers restrict the number of footnotes.
In an ideal world, a paper would be short, dense, even cryptic—and followed by a massive apparatus of notes explaining context, terminology, prior work, alternatives. Instead, we do the opposite: long main text, minimal notes
