@UlrikeHahn I have recently read blog about a solar driven server. And the blogger showed that using black and white raster images instead of Jpeg was much smaller. All images as well as video stills could be replaced by these raster images, avoiding strong data traffic during scrolling, and only shown on demand. I think I'm actually not interrested in 90% of the images in my timeline

Aaaaahhhhhh ! One of my favourite papers, which is about the efficient use of water by plants, has just been cited in this sentence "[...] as stress-induced flower or seed abortion is typically irreversible (Brendel, 2021[...]". There is zero information in my paper about flower or seed abortion. Such wrong citations are actually nearly more the rule than the exception now, but I get §&$%"&% every time : did they not read my paper ? Why cite it then ? Do they pick random papers, just for more citations ? Have they even read the title ?

Well, when I saw that Google was behind OpenRefine, I was not able to avoid the thoughts coming up of why they are investing in this and how they will use this. For making scienticic open data better readable by their AI ?

The #europeanCommision is debating the #CircularEconomy Act and has started online questionnaires where you can share your views. And there is especially one for younger citizens, from 15 to 29 years old :

https://environment.ec.europa.eu/news/young-voices-wanted-help-shape-circular-economy-act-2026-03-27_en

So please share widely across Europe, and especially with your kids and younger colleagues and friends
#ZeroWaste

More information, as well as the link for the questionnaire for >29 citizens, is here :

@junesim63 The wood wide web, not as wide as it seems : this idea of interconnecting trees, based on Suzanne Simard's papers and then largely publicised by Peter Wohlleben in his book "The Hidden Life of Trees", is largely based on #CitationBias towards positive effects , as this very nice review paper here shows : https://www.nature.com/articles/s41559-023-01986-1

#AcademicChatter Hello, fellow academic chatters. I'm an experimental scientist. And I regularly have the problem of how to organize acquired data by different participants to a same experiment. I'd like to have some feedback of how other people do this. Not necessarily specific computer programmes (such as digital labbooks), but rather how-tos based on robust, basic things, such as text and csv files, folder structures etc. I'm often battling with the workflow which is including handwritten measurements, their digital counterparts, metadata for the measurements, codes for samples, all of these done by different people, but all will have to end in one final dataset, where I would like to be able to trace data back to the paper files, and their metadata. And all of this with not too much additional effort by everybody ;-) Have done this usually with some shared server space, but usually it ends up as something a bit difficult to get through. I'm now rather thinking about a system involving perhaps something based on #MarkDown or even #RMarkdown or #knitr etc. Any feedback much welcome 😁

Yes, if we go for public reviews, valued in the CVs, then such a review should probably include some part where the reviewer presents his understanding of the objectives of the paper and puts the objectives as well as the results into an additional bibliographic context (which could be added to the MS as some kind of editorial), allowing thus the evaluation of the competence of the reviewer, as well as the value of the review

Ich seh da eine Möglichkeit die txt files auf Markdown automatisch umzuschreiben und so auf Obsidian umzusteigen (>1000 files). Ich hin eh erstaunt dass mein Wikiserver von Windows NT noch auf 11 läuft:-)

From a recent post looking for PhD theses databases across Europe, I got lots of boosts (thanks) but only returns from very few European countries. So I wonder : how many active scientists (lets say having published one peer-reviewed paper in the last five years) are on mastodon from the different EU countries ?
Pools only have 10 choices, so more countries are in the next post 🙂
please boost mainly on servers with a science theme

@nicebread even though it seems good sense, I still have difficulties with this pre-registering experimental plans : at least in plant science, you are up to so many surprises, that you might have planned doing it one way, and ending up a different one.
