One of the most famous (and most intimidating) theoretical physicists of my country in my field casually sat with me at the breakfast and talked to me for 40 minutes. He was kinda nice and blunt at the same time? It's so weird. I kinda wanna scream.

It seemed like every person who sat in front of me with a laptop was using AI. They used it to generate text, code and slides. Several experimental physicists admitted they are actively using AI to generate code for their experiments. One person said that they wanted to study and fully understand a specific complex theoretical model and than pulled a phone to ask AI about it.

I think that if a scientist cannot write an introduction for their article it means they don't know enough on the subject to write a good article. If a person cannot code for their experiment - they are not good at doing experimental physics.

July conference 2/?

- I survived my first serious oral talk! It went pretty well and I got asked a bunch of questions during the welcome party. One professor even stopped me in the hotel corridor to discuss my work. No one was mean and I got some useful advices. I'm also surprised that there's a lot of young participants on this conference. I'm glad that there's someone expect middle-aged and older men.

- I actually to managed to meet some new people!

July conference 1/?

- My train took 4 hours to get to the final destination instead of 2 hours because of the bad weather. I also had to get an hour ride on the subway to get to the train station, so I'm exhausted.

- I got caught in a downpour. The water got into my suitcase somehow and half of my clothes are wet.

- I've decided that I'm treating this trip as a vacation (that I did not pay for). The hotel is surprisingly nice. The suite is bigger than my dorm room. The water pressure is amazing.
