Maybe book a night train and Eurostar instead? Might be more fun anyway…

I would invite you to a glass of Tokaji !

Can’t wait for Friday! It’ll be the third time I join critical mass Belfast to enjoy the unique atmosphere and imagine what transport will be like in a few years time #Bikesky

Are those pictures taken at the same time of the year? Don’t know the area, but there are places where beaches disappear over winter…

I’m a lot more confident US could blow up a stationary oil tanker than get rid of all dangers posed by Iran to the straight..

You need to punch holes into quite many compartments. Crude is not much lighter than water and spills out.. Of course a hold full of sand might sink it, but just enough to make viewers believe it’s loaded should work …

Congratulations to Professor Robin Hickey who has been elected as a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences.

The @acadsocsciences.bsky.social is a distinguished community of world-leading social scientists who work together to address major challenges in society, locally and globally.

I doubt they would sink. Nothing there to burn and sinking tankers is quite difficult anyway..

Why not fill a few old tankers with sand and drive them remote controlled through the Straight to see who comes for them …

It's almost time to celebrate our staff stars! 🌟

This Friday, we will be recognising the incredible work that goes on across Queen's at this year's #StaffExcellenceAwards.

Good luck to you all. We can't wait to celebrate your incredible achievements.

As long as those tools hallucinate and lie about what they do, I wouldn’t use the output without proofreading…

I have a fully funded PhD position (stipend and fees) for UK and ROI residents in my team. Anyone keen to start research on marine renewables or natural solutions for coastal engineering please get in touch! Happy to discuss potential projects! @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social

Even worse, just to be allowed to collaborate with US partners, I had to waste an evening to complete the Research Security Training…

It is bizarre, but while parking in painted cycle lanes in NI is not allowed, there is no penalty:-(

AIs have created some useful and correct code for me on some occasions and failed miserably (obviously wrong syntax !) in others, with no plausible explanation why one task was easier than the others.
I know of no reason why this problem should go away…

I frequently ask authors what method they used in their literature review if the selection seems random. And you can do the same on public portals like ResearchGate etc. even after a paper is published:-)

Queen’s has been ranked #1 in the UK and 14th globally for UN SDG 14: Life Below Water.

Airline fares are always a lottery. But how can one company offer a cheaper option with 20%SAFand 80% Carbon Offsetting than the next cheapest?

Marine Laboratory Open Day! 2nd August, The Strand Portaferry.

My 4rth year students found out that at current rates 100% of front gardens will be impermeable by 2060 causing 18% more surface runoff and thus more stress on our sewage system. Proud of their work but shocked by this result! @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social

🧪🌊Are there any students interested in a PhD on coastal wave action here? I can offer a fully funded PhD position (UK and ROI residents) under @quadratdtp.bsky.social at @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social ! Please DM or email me if interested in topic area…

Sure, will do…

My 3rd year civil engineering students are working hard on a solution as part of their design and communication module. Get in touch if you want a fresh perspective on an old problem… @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social
