Bromobenzene vs iodobenzene is a heck of a thing.
If you are happy to accept a mystery hafnium being randomly incorporated…couple years maybe. Prescence of hafnium may or may not be accurate.
Found the goods in one of Palmas lesser dives.
Well that’s different.
Next stop Palma. Found some Canadiana in the airport.
Without reading anything my wild guess is that those who are inclined to exercise regularly aren’t already too depressed to bother.
Dilushini’s paper from her masters work comes out with a strong supporting cast! We promised reactive I(V)….Here’s some reactive I(V).

My strongly held conviction, full of unconscious and conscious bias and anecdata is that the most important contribution most professors, certainly myself included, will make in the entire career is a timely retirement. Stay on as emeritus. Happily contribute! But give up that damn salary.
What Will said. The Germans have it right.
I wish. I ask for one spelling mistake to be changed and it comes back to me these days.
Jeolous. Stay under the radar. It’s most annoying to be innendated with requests from editors you are friends with so feel you can’t totally ignore them…
I’d reply but BlueSky isn’t sure I’m 16 years old!
I do about 30 a year. Say no or simply don’t respond to about one a day.
I think you are overestimating how much time a referee has. If I don’t already know about it and happen to remember it at the critical half hour…the previous work might as well not exist. That one’s on the authors. And really entirely possibly they haven’t stumbled upon it either.
These ones…been using them for years, hold tea/coffee/water/Diet Pepsi fine. For bourbon use in a pinch where other suitable vessels lacking, n = 2 occasions years apart, very quick leaking at the bottom. I assume it’s the glue that attaches the bottom to the sides.
I cannot say anything specific about the nature of said cups other than if I had to guess they are not S tier quality as far as paper cups go.
I can confirm that certain types of paper cup that certain universities source for coffee/tea at events will see bourbon leaking out the bottom within a few minutes.
Sun came out just in the nick of time.
Speakers dinner for our small but mighty hypervalent iodine symposium.
From soap opera heart throb to one of our best. Congrats Professor Nguyen!
The first 6 words of this simply describes me at the end of the year.
Next stop Pacifichem! Last time Sydney departures was like the train station in The Great Escape for OzChem. Hope to see a few of y’all in a couple hours!
Lachlan submits! Congrats dude!
The day is upon us once more. 72 holes to raise money in the memory of friends gone too soon.

Sneaking out early for the win.
This horribly flawed paper gave me my entire career. If one referee had asked us to calculate the singlet-triplet gap my last decade and some would have been entirely different.
At UNSW, we’ve been looking into sunscreens. theconversation.com/mineral-vs-c... @jonbeves.bsky.social + Anna Wang. Also thanks to Thilini Ishwara.
Laura (wife, who is a team lead in corporate job) said her bosses boss didn’t have an office with a door and my immediate reaction was ‘oh god where do they nap?’ and immediately my narrative was compromised.
