The only two YouTube channels, I'm following, at this point, are the one of Jason Schreier and 'Hit oder Shit' 💭
Elsewise I'm really only listening to podcasts or (purchased) music, on a daily basis.

Gah (pronounce it as Klingon to get the right feeling)! We have had a locked down version of Teams that lacked most functions - it was a glorified chat app. Now the IT dept has let go of these restrictions - and this morning my outlook behaved as an alarm bell. People started sending tasks, links, channels, chats etc. It's a nightmare catching up with all functions in a project with lots of channels, chats in each channel and assigned tasks with people I haven't even heard of before.…

Substrate-Directed Wetting Layers in Bicontinuous Particle-Stabilised Emulsions

Abstract: Bicontinuous interfacially jammed emulsion gels (bijels) facilitate efficient mass transport across multiple length scales due to their interwoven structure of particle-stabilised liquid channels. This unique morphology imparts considerable potential for applications in separation and catalysis, particularly when fabricated \textit{via} solvent-transfer-induced phase separation (STrIPS). STrIPS enables the continuous, large-scale production of nanostructured bijel films on solid substrates, yet the influence of the substrate properties on the formation dynamics and final morphology remains insufficiently understood. In this study, this relationship is elucidated by preparing STrIPS bijel films on silane-functionalised glass substrates with selectively controlled wettability and analysing the resulting structure with confocal microscopy. The results showed the presence of notable wetting layers at the bijel-substrate interface, whose thicknesses could be tuned through the nanoparticle weight fraction. In line with numerical simulations, increasing the substrate hydrophobicity drove a transition from a laminar, water-rich surface layer to a patch-like, progressively oil-rich structure. These findings provide crucial insight into the structure-directing role of substrates in supported bijel films, which aids their application as functional materials.

I wanna consolidate my IG scrolling down into YT scrolling by way of scanning my following tab on IG, grabbing any links/inner links (linktrees with yt channels) on the bio/profile and producing a CSV or a page to resub on their channels, it's the last Meta product I have an account for and I wanna see how far I can go with this.

Pseudoreal AMSB: Troubling Tensions with Tumbling

Abstract: I analyze the pseudoreal confining $\mathcal{N}=1$ SUSY gauge theories deformed by anomaly mediated SUSY breaking (AMSB). Taking the conjecture that the AMSB and non-SUSY limits are in the same universality class, I find broadly that the non-SUSY confining pseudoreal gauge theories of this class have no massless particles in their spectra. This contradicts recent expectations from tumbling. I explore whether or not non-standard tumbling could reconcile the two pictures, and find that it would require condensation in repulsive channels in three of the cases, and that in one case it does not appear possible regardless of attractiveness/repulsiveness. I briefly comment on the additional theories that may be in the conformal window, and find that their SUSY versions are consistent with flowing to superconformal fixed points.
