Research prof at VUBrussel on the CMS, milliQan and Formosa experiments at CERN - Dark Matter and exotics.
Wij gebruiken de "Meeting assets" van zoom voor heel wat (Engelstalige) vergaderingen nu. Het is impressionant wat die tool aan samenvatting en actiepunten bijeen pent.
Ik ben zeer bezorgd om de AI bubbel langs alle kanten, maar dit soort tool geeft echt een impressionante tijdswinst.

Oh leuke meme!

Welk dilemma zeg je?

Misschien is de typo net een teken dat het wel echt is :)

Het eerste vond ik vreemd omdat dit amper een vergelijking is, en omdat de zin niet loopt, maar dat is misschien een "feature" op de website met in-text vergelijkingen.
Het tweede is vreemd, door de typo, en ook omdat dit simpel lijkt om vergelijkingen voor neer te schrijven.
Inhoud: geen idee.

Is dit artikel in Scientific Reports met AI gegenereerd?
Er door bladerend zonder te lezen vallen me verschillende rare dingen op.
Dit is peer reviewed 🧐?

Extra argument om naar de erfbelasting te kijken ipv het bij pensioenen van de jonge mensen te halen. Maar die zit wel op Vlaams niveau.

Why? Are they not a danger to themselves and others when on the phone while cycling?

Where I live you lose your driving license 15 days plus a 174 EUR fine (if paid on the spot), when caught. The chance of getting caught is low and it still leads to too many accidents, but at least it's not endemic behavior.
The same fine applies to cyclists, btw, in principle.

Het filmpje brengt zo goed als geen duiding. Die mensen zeggen iets over die vreselijke dictator alsof dat een normale mening is over een leuke opa, en ça passe. Maar we mogen de media hierin niet met de vinger wijzen hoor...

The choice of what we choose to write out for later analysis (the trigger) is complex because it's hundreds of paths that set the scope of the physics program we can perform with it. But it's something up for open internal debate to reach consensus on, not group by group each with their own dataset.
November 20, 2025 at 2:37 PM
Hm, I never gave it any thought myself. I don't think that way of working would really work in our case. We take continuous data that is selected on by online triggers (we immediately throw away 99.997% of our data). That data is then used as starting point by everyone.
November 20, 2025 at 2:37 PM
Not sure I get the question right, but there is no ownership of topics or data; within the experiment there is academic freedom, and important topics attract more people to work on.
[That's also why we lack people working on unusual or hard topics.]

Grow an extra finger? I bet AI can help you out :)

As it is now, the CERN host laboratory (for example) provides the accelerator and civil engineering infrastructure, but there is no base funding for the experiments themselves, so each experiment is a hodgepodge of contributions from funding agencies and institutes that all want to shine.

With astronomers it works like that as well: the setup is separate from the data analysers. In HEP, that would require a very different funding structure, where now the budget is puzzled together via "small" contributions from all participating institutes and their respective funding agencies.
