I need to attend a scientific conference in the USA next month. Please can you kindly tell me how I can also sail across the Atlantic to get there?
(As an aside, my employer has already issued my burner phone and laptop; SOP for visiting countries such as the USA).
That sounds like something you could do via Zoom and save yourself the hassle.
Nobody claimed we could do a systemic change without, y'know, change.
Yes mate. Because staring at a screen on zoom call is a suitable alternative to free social interaction and scientific relationship building.
I'd rather you look at Zoom and we don't die of a climate catastrophe. I never said we could keep all our little niceties, such is systemic change.
