I have four papers outstanding:
- One with elapsed notification deadline (lol)
- One with review "arriving in a few weeks" (as of last month, lol)
- One waiting for Springer typesetting, supposed to appear next week (lol)
- And finally, just went through typesetting, supposed to appear in June (perhaps)
Academic publishing is not for the impatient.

To prepare for our multi-day hike in Norway, we're currently experimenting with making one-pot meals out of dried food. So far, Pilaw turned out fine. Next on the list: pasta.
Internet suggests about ~1 l of liquid for ~0.5 kg of pasta. Any tips?
Made a total rookie mistake in thinking I could just walk … welp, at least I survived crossing the highway
