I like how the internet has got to the point where random sites feature fake quotes by me, occasionally regarding research I never did, sometimes while working in positions I&#39;ve never held.

The really frustrating bit is that one of those quotes feels like something I might have said ad-hoc during a talk or a lecture, but I spent a while trying to verify it and only found things that were significantly dissimilar - and it's not quite in my voice or how I speak.

@sarahjamielewis I'm idly wondering how many people have the same name as you. My name has five more letters in it than yours, and when I last looked, over a hundred people in the world had the same name as me.
