There are many widely available health & wellness apps that will remind you to periodically get up from your desk and walk around but I can personally recommend my own low-tech method which is to continuously drink ungodly amounts of tea.

I've been sending chapters from my upcoming pop-sci book to expert fact-checkers and it's useful but also WAY more stressful than sharing work with the general public. It's like you go out to do karaoke with your friends and the original musician is in the front row telling you which notes are off.

I’m at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton this week, doing research for the particle physics book I’m writing. It’s an amazing place. Today I spent about five straight hours talking about the future of fundamental physics with a colleague and my brain is full but man it was so much fun 🤯

As a physicist I can easily calculate time dilation from relativistic motion (time slows when you're moving fast) or proximity to a massive object (time slows in gravity) but I have yet to find a solution for emotional time dilation (the task takes five minutes to complete but six weeks to start) 🫠
