You don't need to know exactly where you'll end up. You just need to keep becoming more capable. Capability creates options, options create opportunities, and opportunities create futures that were invisible when you started.

博士生写论文就要暴力产出！
现在找工作对于论文质量数量要求都很高，所以博士生第一要务就是快速写出论文：
1⃣️先找到一篇能“照着走”的目标期刊模板
别傻乎乎从头开始，先锁定一篇目标期刊里选题最接近的论文。不是学习观点，而是结构参照：每节干什么、哪里展开怎么收，讨论怎么呼应。只有吃透期刊风格，才可能入编辑眼。
而且这样写的时候脑子里始终有个终点形态，不会写着写着跑偏。很多博士写得慢，就是边写边还在反复想论文结构
2⃣️尽早搭建自己的文献与理论体系
科研不是囤文献，问题不在读多少，而是文献没有属于自己的位置。现在我整理文献或学习理论，就问一个问题：在论文里用来干嘛？是放在理论基础，还是方法合理性？
一旦文献与理论有了体系，写作时才不用翻来覆去找，而是直接调用
3⃣️学会高效使用AI工具
现在科研已经离不开AI了，但得先会选择，很多博士生都是同时打开很多app和网页，同一个问题到处问然后再比较，或者让每个工具都找材料，再交叉反复验证。这根本达不到理想效果，反而会拖慢进度
4⃣️把写论文拆解成有节奏、具体的动作
真正高效的人几乎不设“今天写论文”这种flag，而是直接写：改第二节第一段、补三条方法文献、压缩引言到800字。
目标一具体，心理负担会明显下降，只需要执行动作。很多博士写不动，其实是目标太大，启动成本太高
5⃣️拒绝论文完美主义
写得最快的阶段，恰恰是对初稿要求最低的时候。只要逻辑通、结构可行、别人能看懂，就往下推进。
反正后面一定会改，论文不是一次性成果，你一直写不出来其实就是完美主义作祟

Okay, with practical skills and no money, how would one build a satellite or build anything anyway that is STEM related ?
I have always said it boldly and without any apology that people trained in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) should not have to go looking for jobs. On the contrary, they should be the ones creating jobs. This is because STEM teaches practical skills. Skills that can help someone start a business, build something new, or solve a problem. So instead of waiting for someone to employ them, a person trained in STEM has what it takes to start something of their own and even employ others.

My son. You are a good journalist. Dig deep. There is a huge story behind this. He is shy to talk about it.
Dear HE @KagutaMuseveni I am one of the 3 Uganda engineers you sponsored to Japan to develop Uganda's first satellite (PearlAfricaSat-1)under @STIsecretariat but I currently have no job and would love to serve my country.
My email: [email protected]
Kind regards,

On this day in 2022, Uganda officially joined the space age.
Four years ago today, on November 7, 2022, Uganda launched its first indigenous satellite, PearlAfricaSat-1 into space before its successful deployment into low Earth orbit from the International Space Station on December 2, 2022.
Led by Project Manager Omara Bonny and a dedicated team of Ugandan engineers trained in Japan through the BIRDS program at Kyushu Institute of Technology, this groundbreaking mission marked a historic leap for our nation's technological capabilities.

A study on correlation of IQ and religions in Africa and the west was made. In Africa, relationship is +ve, meaning leaders are often too religious, unlike Europe where leaders replace religion with ideological frameworks e.g social justice movements fulfilling similar functions.
Assuming leadership requires high intelligence, this study proves that depending too heavily on religion to unite society breeds opportunistic pastors. These figures easily hoodwink followers into destructive actions that completely contradict their natural intelligence.
