This whole article is incredibly interesting:
There are crystal structures that simply won't form anymore, even though they did a few decades ago. Real life Ice-9? Could make an incredible sci-fi book. en.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?ti…
Something that has come up here a few times and that I encounter more than I expected is researchers at universities refusing to run provided EDR because they own their research and don't want the university to access it. At the same time, they're a target for various APT groups…
Never underestimate the destructive power of a supervisor who thinks that regulations don't apply to them... any relation this cartoon has to current news stories is purely coincidental
Yes... I had to censor my work without which my committee wouldn't sign it... But the great thing with Internet is that you can post the original version and even add a disclaimer explaining why it differs from the published version…

1 in 10 of the top 100 ‘best’ scientists are named Michael or Eric, but only 3% are female, according to @guide2research. Putting aside the obvious flaws of the H-index, these numbers are disheartening. Thanks to @mbeisen for sharing. research.com/scientists-ran…

Just writing about measurement error, took a break and . . .
So we’re calling academics “toddlers” now?
Anyone have a good theory for why toddlers have such specific, arbitrary preferences, and why they get so upset when these arbitrary preferences are thwarted?
I'll see your co-third authors and raise you co-fifth authors (also on a 6-author paper).

i genuinely feel unsafe with the status quo practices in software development npm/poetry/cargo/whatever install 600 packages by a bunch of randos, and then load that code in a process that can read all my session cookies and signal messages and keypresses it's BAD
