For a long time, I diligently put my course materials into #git, but I found that it has little, if any, benefits for my use case, most notably, working alone.
But I’m now in the lucky position that others will teach my courses for the next academic year (#sabbatical, yay!)—now it does make sense to use version control!

Jede Generation erfindet die faule Jugend neu – diesmal trifft's eben die Gen Z, mit Vier-Tage-Woche und Sabbatical als Kronzeugen. Nur: Die Erwerbsbeteiligung junger Erwachsener ist laut IAB so hoch wie seit Jahrzehnten nicht. Vielleicht sollten wir das Vorurteil in Rente schicken, bevor es die Jugend tut.

It’s now two weeks since I arrived in #Brussels for my #sabbatical, and I still haven’t posted on LinkedIn how thrilled, excited, and honored I am.
I guess I’m not a “thought leader”…

My very first sabbatical (a full year! 🤩) is starting to look real, so I'd better start making some plans. Any tips from fellow academics? Do's and Don't's? #academicChatter
