A quotation from Thomas Fuller
Thou canst scarcely be truly wise till thou hast been deceived. Thy own Errors will teach thee more Prudence, than the grave Precepts, and even Examples of others.
Thomas Fuller (1654-1734) English physician, preacher, aphorist, writer
Introductio ad Prudentiam, Vol. 2, # 2462 (1727)More about this quote: wist.info/fuller-thomas-1654/8…

A quotation from Charles Kettering
[T]he more education a man has, the less likely he is to invent new things. Possibly this is because from the moment the boy or girl starts in school he or she is examined three or four times a year and a failure or two and he or she is out. Now because an inventor works differently, he thinks that’s all wrong. He knows he’ll never go far on any problem before he strikes snags. He may flunk 999 times but if on his 1,000th try he succeeds, he wins! The only time you don’t want to fail is the last time you try a thing.
Charles F. Kettering (1876-1958) American inventor, engineer, researcher, businessman

Many thanks to James Dyson of Evolution Jobs for organisation/initiation, and it was a privilege to be part of this alongside the other presenters!
(The Failure I am Embracing: finding ways to speak more slowly and umm/err less 😀)
Also thanks to everyone in Skyscanner for the privilege of being able to learn and iterate on this over many years; #failforward

🎉 Ah, the age-old wisdom of "learning in public" because who doesn't want to fail spectacularly in front of a crowd? 🙈🤦♂️ Giles is here to save the day with his #time-traveling blog, hopping from 2024 to 2025 like a caffeinated kangaroo. 🐇📅 Spoiler alert: reading about posting blogs is almost as riveting as watching paint dry. 🎨🕰️

# Opsec Fail-Forward 🫣😋
@catsalad just found a screenshot of that time I outed myself publicly...twice 🤣
Context: Cat's initial post was public, so my replies were also public by default 😯 I thought these were DMs because I was half-awake and flustered 😳 This was the first time we had really spoken about anything, but it became quickly obvious that we both had already had crushes on the each other for some time 💘
So, without further ado: "My Best OpSec Fails" aka "How I Met Cat". :neocat_fingerguns:

@mothership 5 minutes later when you realize you was terrible wrong all along.

Wanna spice up your campaign? Have the Big Bad cast "Polymorph" on the party's tank... into a goldfish. During the battle. On a cliff. Absolute pandemonium! What? You said you wanted drama, right? #FailForward #SplashZone #BadDnDAdvice 🐟💥🧙♂️

Always stinks to get a grant rejection. I'm glad I'm at a point in my professional life that it doesn't ruin my day, but it is still disappointing.
Rejection is a part of doing science, and these ideas are good ones, and we'll work to find money to fund them somewhere else.
I try to be transparent about how much #rejection I experience in my career, and I track paper and grant rejections on my website if you are curious
