January 19, 2021 The Evolution of a Research Paper
How do research papers end up looking the way that they do? I take two papers
that I've been involved with and detail the human story behind them and their
underlying research. You may also wish to look at the accompanying animations

October 07, 2020 Stick or Twist?
All of us have points in our lives where we have to decide whether we
should continue down our current path or change to another.
As a researcher, I often face a constrained
version of this problem: should I continue on my current research path
or change to another? For a long time I wasn't aware that I was being faced
with such decisions; and, when I did become aware, I wasn't sure how best to
make a decision. Over time I've realised that a simple "stick or twist?"
heuristic mostly works well for me. I don’t claim that anything in this article is
novel, nor do I think I'm describing an approach that’s applicable to every
situation - but it might provide some useful food for thought.

May 06, 2020 Alternative Sources of Advice
With slowly increasing frequency, I am asked for my advice on life or careers,
or something similar. Let us put aside worries about this sign of my increasing
decrepitude or the poor taste that some people show in those from whom they
seek advice. The brutal truth is that most of the advice that I've received as
an adult - nearly all of which has been well intentioned - has not been right
for me. I therefore assume that any advice I might give others would be equally
wrong, and so I try and avoid doing so. In this blog post, I will try to
enumerate the problems I have with advice as it is commonly given and look at
one way that we can do things differently.
