I recently joined a PhD-to-Industry transition workshop by B12 Consulting (thanks to Ghent University and PhD Talent Pool Flanders) along with nostr:nprofile1qqszsuljuratw2k7gwzh0r48hhyxwlehkma7z0h45t3zquhlre795yspqemhxue69uhsz9thwden5te0v4jx2m3wdehhxarj9ekxzmny5xm3z2. It was fun to be there, thanks for the invite and the great food! 🍝
Key takeaways:
- PhDs bring strong analytical & problem-solving skills.
- Industry and academia have different value systems: faster feedback loops, more teamwork, focus on results & IP vs. freedom and exploration in research.
- A PhD is not “just a degree” — it’s also a job.
- In industry: stay curious, keep learning, grow your network.
- Transitioning is not about leaving academia, but about finding the right balance between passion, skills, impact, and sustainability.

Damn that is quite a lot, I wish he sells it all immediately so that I can buy it on a dip!
Miss my mangoes from India. The mangoes here in Europe are not that good. That's the only thing I miss from India, except my parents ofcourse. #NostrMango
Wow thanks! This is my first lightening wallet usage and it was lightening fast! Thanks @Jose Sammut
I am really not sure if my lightening address works, can someone zap me please so that I can check? Even 1 SAT will be helpful #nostr Thanks!
Very well put Nuh, USDC is indeed taking a major share of the pie. It had somewhat the same volume as Visa last year IIRC and is stable / useful for the most general public.
> Bitcoin is a good asset to save at.
Not entirely disagreeing but I want to see your reasoning. Is it the digital scarcity, or the cross border transfer nature of BTC? Why only BTC and not something else? Be it a digital asset or a physical like gold?
As a born Hindu, I agree with this.
What does he mean by "fail"? As a currency, indeed if it's not used it will fail.
But as a store of value, if people trust in it, it will not fail.
One of my favourite songs this year.

I invested in a new desk setup after years of just sitting down and working. My back feels so much better! I paid around 100€ for this desk which is a good deal I think?
why don't you think that existing nostr architecture is scalable?
Great! Best of luck
Nice! I see that you are wearing a LEONE jacket in your picture. Do you box?
but if they evacuate their homeland and become refugees, they lose any rights to claim the land right?
