He ended the statement saying: “If I can’t carry those values forward inside the company today, then I will carry them forward outside, with all the love and conviction I can.” Ben & Jerry was not just ice cream, it was JUST-ICE CREAM

The best time to invest in open infrastructure was 10 years ago the second best time is now

curating the papertrails of authoritarian takeover is the new punk rock - what a time to be alive

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... This one stung.

Watched the Jurassic world movie (unfortunately) I can never get over how open science makes its debut appearance in a blockbuster and they managed to make it look so cringey/misrepresented 😭 as in, the whole movie is an embarrassment yet the idea as a main motivation did not seem out of place...

An important perspective - strength and integrity through connectivity and mutual flourishing of global open identifier systems and localized/ specialized identifier systems (especially in a time that calls for trust and perseverance in the scholarly community more than ever)

This is no joke where I'd monkey paw wish the chinese academy of sciences to step up and say we'll host your unwanted data.

Imam Wahyudi Farid from Institute Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember ITS share their work with the Living Archive supported by the @datacite.org GAF grant with the most beautiful slides ❤️‍🔥 #datasharing #culturalheritage #persistentidentifier

Today life is good

super relevant issue!

We've just released the beta version of our new collection for research data 📊 Read more on our blog blog.inspirehep.net/2025/03/intr... or try it out inspirehep.net/data

I fear Marvel has cooked again. This profit driven, AI fueled digital necromancy won't stop at the Tony Stark reanimation on the big screen, capitalism is straight up gonna bring back [insert dead tyrant], name it Lyn and make it the smart assistant on your phone with a true kamikaze aesthetics.

Couple of shots from the weekend walk. Got some pistachio lemon ricotta tortellini from Viaaemilia, man have I been sleeping on ricotta...

We are excited to join the #openresearch community on #Bluesky 👋 Please share relevant #openscience #metadata starter packs with us so we can get started! Looking forward to turning this room DataCite blue! 💙😉

super handy

the american #tiktok migration to #rednote (and claiming to find freedom there) is so funny and emblematic of the crumbling state apparatuses of both the US and China, two endlessly self-aggrandizing countries filled to the brim with deeply unserious people 🕺👌 workers of the world unite I guess

uninstalled twitter from phone, -100% musk tweet push notification, noticeable improvement in quality of life, 10/10 would recommend.

Building my own doomcore Xmas ambience brick by brick 💆🏻‍♀️ with Mark Fisher and Zizek, Cigarette After Sex, one chunk of Serrano ham, in the disconnected gray rainy German suburbs. Apocalyptic wasteland aesthetics the ultimate millennial comfort zone

I wonder why I have troubles sleeping recently 🤔 *Proceed to make coffee/ chai/ matcha/ milk tea every other hour*

Great news! To learn more about how RRID and ROR overlap, see our recent blog post. ror.org/blog/2024-11...

Wonderful opportunity to work on the groundwork towards more transparent and effective funding and grant reporting through open infrastructure! More open funding metadata - yes please 💚

All I want for Xmas is to have someone psychoanalyze the human tendency of overdoing pleasure so hard it leads straight to depression - and do it directly into my ear ASMR style.

Wait the new @zotero.bsky.social version supports epub reading 🤯 this changes EVERYTHING...

well damn. seems this is not true anymore.

LOL wallflower citations - TIL. What if we validate citations by asking AI generated question about the paper being cited, and only allow insertion upon correct answers by authenticated researchers (and make everyone's life harder *100 thanks to bad actors)

So this is not normal 🤌🥶

Science is political in so many ways. One of them is reflected in #citation politics. And we all do it, willingly or not. This paper is a glimpse into how some strategies (e.g. decolonizing or diversifying citations) that aim to undermine existing hierarchies have limitations worth thinking about.

Fully expect literary and artistic masterpieces to be created by the great American people in the coming years. Starting with the next season of Andor.

Nice fireworks for remembering a treason plot. That's the spirit ✨ 🎆🧨No Gods, no masters!

✨ Great to host #DataCiteConnect24 in Zambia co-located w #ETD2024! It was an intense afternoon w discussions around #OpenResearch, #ETDs impact & visibility, PID implementation in Zimbabwe by Josiline Chigwada. Truly inspiring to connect w so many colleagues working to 🚀 #theses & #dissertations!

Happy November! First purchase of the month a pair of tickets to Heretic I'm so excited.

You got cleanness on the kitchen countertop beaten into you by working as a head chef in an award-winning restaurant in Texas, I got it from growing up resenting helping my anxiety-ridden mom in a stuffy greasy kitchen. We are not the same.

Made the mistake of accidentally buying a piece of clothing that requires ironing after wash... The singular item in my wardrobe that keeps the iron, the ironing board, and me sizzling with resentment every other Saturday morning 🤌😤

Note to self: don't send important emails on Friday afternoon.

Honored to share the story of @chineseopensci.bsky.social , was a bit nervous. One great feature of #SORTEE2024 is the shinyapp for program that can choose your time zone, I think this might be useful for the next @btscon.bsky.social and other online events for #openscience

📣🤩Join us on Nov 11 for #DataCiteConnect24 co-located with the RDA 23rd Plenary in Costa Rica! Together we'll discuss #PIDs, #FAIRdata, #metadata best practices and more💬 datacite.org/event/dataci...

This @404media.co article in combination with the Zizek joke mentioned in the comment section - entertainment of the week no notes 😂 Someone please prompt GPT to write a standup bit on this and pipe that into Sora to create the Tiktok we deserve but don't need. www.404media.co/i-applied-to...

So far the most effective way to tell apart Edinburgh local and tourist. I mean the suitcases yes but mainly how they understand the intention of the traffic lights.

Oooh pretty neat to see the language around #PeerReview pooled together and standardized @nisoinfo.bsky.social www.niso.org/standards-co...
