Ein Artikel von @netzpolitik_feed geht auf die Pressemeldung von @ankedb ein, der die mangelnde Finanzierung von #ZenDiS und dessen Projekte #openDesk und #openCoDE kritisiert und das Scheitern der Projekte fürchtet.
Es ist wirklich schwer verständlich, dass im aktuellen Haushalt die Mittel für digital souveräne IT Projekte auf 19 Mio gekürzt wurden, wenn gleichzeitig 13,4 Mrd für Microsoft, Oracle und andere proprietäre Lösungen abgeschlossen werden. (ah)
"All journal articles will now feature a Code Availability section and authors will be encouraged to share code publicly, using permanent identifiers, and citing code they have used."
Good point from Benjamin Haibe-Kains on unreproducible research: "The problem is not so much that editors waive rules about transparency,…but that editors and reviewers might be 'poorly educated on the real versus fictitious obstacles for sharing data, code and so on, so they tend to be content with very shallow, unreasonable justifications [for not sharing such information]'." https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-03817-6
PS: They don't discount open access, open data, and open code (or open protocols, preregistration, and so on). They take a step back and ask what strategies will advance them.
If open data and code support reproducibility (and they do), then so do standardized data and code 𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴. But what are the best ways to implement them? https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-023-02491-7
'"If the research process included the creation of custom code, the authors were required to make it available during the peer review assessment & make it public upon…publication…At the end of the year-long trial period, code sharing had risen from 53%…to 87%…The journal decided to make code sharing a permanent [policy]. Today, the sharing rate is 96%."
Our field experiment on code sharing behavior in the social sciences has been published in PLOS One 🥳 (co-authored by @laura_schaechtele and Andreas Schneck).
"We welcome #UKRI’s policy of requiring #OpenAccess to research that it funds, but we recommend that this should go further in requiring the recipients of research grants to share #data and #code alongside the publications arising from the funded research."
