Friendly rocket uncle, except I don't work on rockets, I am more interested in what can go on the rockets. Cis/het/white, he/him, I try not to be a dick but if I fuck up please let me know.

Currently doing my MSc thesis where I design, build, and (hopefully) launch a ChipSat, may hit people up for knowledge if they're cool with it.

Main at @RedFuture, still interested in ancom space programs but this alt is for thesisposting and questions about academia and science.

@petrichor Do you think it's worth having a Scholars version of this above and past #SizzlinScholars, or would it be covered under that?

@sidd_harth0_5h4h It's a letter that you send in with your CV when you apply for a job, outlining why you think you're the best person for the job

There's a lot of templates and advice online

What's the job? When do you need to apply for? Is it for a class?

@Cyborgneticz "A professor of mine went to go hear Derrida speak once. The entire talk was about cows; everyone was flummoxed but listened carefully, and took notes about...cows. There was a short break, and when Derrida came back, he was like, “I’m told it is pronounced ‘chaos.’”" (From Phil Gentry, https://twitter.com/pmgentry/status/1379093511539150852)
