En recherche d’un·e stagiaire de recherche d’été avec les qualités idéales suivantes :

  • Qui aime programmer en JavaScript, ou dans un langage qui compile à JavaScript.
  • Intéressé·e par la visualisation (de données, avec diagrammes, de programmes, de preuves, …).

Envoyez-moi un MP ou un email si intéressé·e !

Seeking a summer research intern with the following ideal qualities:

  • Likes programming in JavaScript, or a language that compiles to JavaScript.
  • Interested in visualization (data, diagram, program, proof, …), perhaps interactive.
  • In the Lausanne area. (The internship would be paid, but not enough to support coming to Lausanne just for the summer.)

DM or email me if interested!

I just received my account statement from the Swiss AVS (their version of Social Security, covering retirement and survivor benefits), detailing my contribution history from my time working at the #EPFL in 1997 through the mid-2000s. The statement confirms that I'm on track to qualify for a Swiss pension one day, thanks to the totalization treaty between Switzerland and the U.S. that coordinates benefits across both systems. It won't be much, but it's heartening to know the work I put in during my late teens and early twenties hasn't been lost.
