If you ever see me at a conference, please say hi! Sorry my postings have dwindled recently. Job search stuff has taken up a lot of time.<br /><br />Take care,<br />Jessicaberkeleyjesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00255252868558666987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-193178369124442285.post-22468241800054601502011-12-08T14:49:46.378-08:002011-12-08T14:49:46.378-08:00Hi Jessica,
I found your blog when I was scouring ...Hi Jessica,<br />I found your blog when I was scouring the interwebs for some help with getting Healpix running with IDL. I share your irritation with IDL. I am unfamiliar with it and find it very hard to understand what the code does just by reading it. <br /><br />I also am a PhD student, in the area of observational cosmology, and I am on the point of finishing, as it appears you are. I have therefore got a lot from reading your blog, and I take my hat off to you for embarking on such a committing project (I often check David Hogg's blog too). Aside from your actual work, you are very honest about your experiences as a PhD student, and I have felt reassured knowing that I am not alone in feeling these things! <br /><br />I don't usually comment on blogs, but after reading this post I felt a bit like I had been busted reading your diary! So I just wanted to thank you for the support you are providing (without realizing!), and also tell you to keep it up and wish you all the best for the last stretch of your PhD. <br /><br />Best,<br />PeterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
