#this is inspired by looking for a code snippet best friend sent me for calculating a thing

thinking about my summer research group, and while that's math research not fieldwork for science, there's still kind of the same vibe as the original network effect or asr surveys --- we're in this together with not many outsiders hanging around the physical space we're in, we spend most of the day in the same physical space, etc

but also, group chat. i want presaux group chat that's 25% logistical updates (running late, feeling sick, can you let me into x space), 25% pictures of the chalkboard/whiteboard from group discussions or other saving/sharing progress, 25% group troubleshooting of code, and 25% people dropping random related resources and notes and code snippets and stuff that might vaguely help out

and also i really want the private dms between any two of them (especially either arada and overse or arada and ratthi) that's just whining about more and more highly specific work things, mixed in with the usual best friend private chat stuff like one-sentence life updates, random incomprehensible-to-outsiders stuff, memes/spinstagram spreels, complaining, etc. bonus points if that chat is spread across at least three platforms and occasionally spills into the group chat
