Privacy matters! But what if the tools meant to protect us are being misused? Our latest study (to appear ARES '24) reveals surprising facts about HTTP Client Hints (HTTP CHs) on the Web. [THREAD]
The crystallization of large replenished magma bodies is amazingly complex. The photos of layered rocks from the Bushveld Complex in this new #OpenAccess paper are mind-bogglingly wonderful 🤩 🤯 🤓 . The wider applicability of their conclusions might be disputed by some, but good stuff though! https://doi.org/10.1016/j.lithos.2024.107621#Geology#Igneous#LayeredIntrusions
Good news on open access to my works on bilingualism, the research area related to my teaching, child-raising, and using Japanese for over 40 years. I was interviewed by The Japan Times on #bilingual#education for a forthcoming paywalled article. It was a long interview, and usually a newspaper article uses only short passages from one individual. However, the #Japan Association for #Language#Teaching Bilingualism Special Interest Group (#JALT#Bilingualism SIG) would like to publish the full interview in its newsletter Bilingual Japan. Everyone should be able to read that as I back it up in research repositories. The tentative title is "English Education and Bilingual Education in Japan."
My publications on bilingualism have been backed up mostly at Academia Edu, which is not so easy to access anymore [any comment?], so I've added links to the original sources of articles, which are open access, at https://japanned.hcommons.org/bilingualism
This book offers an exploration of #work-life balance, focusing on #parents, #academics, the self-employed, and #migrants. It examines self-care, #childcare, and informal care dynamics.
Just got off a call with the editor-in-chief of a journal that moved from paywall-based publishing with Cambridge University Press to university-hosted independent publishing under a diamond OA model (no APCs) with PKP/OJS.
TL;DR it's going great.
Submissions are up, quality has been maintained, and now over 50% of papers have one or more Global South-based authors (previously ~10%). @OpenAlex data]
💫 "Global collaboration, local production" is finally published!
This #openAccess book describes how sustainable production can be designed, in a comprehensive approach from idea to production, with broad access through an interdisciplinary approach.
Interfacer was made possible thanks to a large common effort, including wonderful dynes like Mihaela Tudorache, @vortex Micol Salomone, @fairback and @jaromil

'#Sharing with minimal #regulation? Evidence from neighborhood book exchange' by Anouk Schippers and Adriaan Soetevent is April's #OpenAccess publication in the spotlight.
Their study shows that peer-to-peer book exchanges, like little free #libraries, experience minimal free riding due to strong #SocialNorms among users, with a return rate of 9 #books for every 10 taken.
