HELP: looking for sources on fascist aesthetics. Why fascists (Nazi Germany, other fascist countries, and current fascist movements) like minimalism, Ancient Greek and Roman sculpture and architecture, and “elegant” beauty.
Whenever I explain my #research at Google into mobile text editing, I'm usually met with blank stares or a slightly hostile "Everyone can edit text on their phones, right? What's the problem?"
Text editing on mobile isn't ok. It's actually much worse than you think, an invisible problem no one appreciates. I wrote this post so you can understand why it's so important. https://jenson.org/text #UXDesign#UX
So is this the deal with the new @eLife system:
1- you send your preprint
2- it is reviewed (if they so choose)
3- you eventually upload a final “version of record”
OR
4- you send the reviewed preprint (+reviews) to another journal for publication
Has anyone tried that step 4? Do the “other journals” accept to publish something that’s already been reviewed by eLife?
Of course, you could do 3 instead but does having an eLife paper under the new system “count” for your CV?
projects that you’ve already almost completed (hiding the fact that they’re almost completed, so that you can use the funding for completely new projects), or
new projects that you haven’t really started yet (for which you might just have some preliminary data)?
Do you think 1) is unethical? Do you think 1) is necessary? Do you think 1) has the highest chances of funding? Please comment :)
Read all about it. Washington Post report on a study, written by a "journalist" who has no idea how internet technology works if it isn't run by a corporation, and imposes culturally-specific judgements on internet use by people in other cultures, with different ethical frameworks. Honestly, this study could have been titled 'researchers shocked to find dodgy stuff on dodgy little websites':
Grant-writing question - isn’t it weird / stressful to put all your ideas out there, for a 10% chance to be funded, while at the same time taking the risk that other researchers (intentionally or not) might use these ideas for their own benefit?
(Of course this wouldn’t be a problem if we weren’t all competing with each other.. but we currently are) #Academia#Research#Science#Grants
A new misinformation quiz shows that, despite the stereotype, younger Americans have a harder time discerning fake headlines, compared with older generations
I've jumped in the car before, and just drove to Niagara Falls, but that's rare as I get older.
I pre-plan trips (even short ones) up to a year before I take them (or maybe don't ever take them)
I travel with cats, so cat-friendly (not pet friendly) motels must be found, areas of interest along the way and people we might meet or visit. Cost of gas, budget.. It's extensive preparation.
"Urban forest restoration by trial and error is costly, and resulting failures are both discouraging to practitioners and condemning of future funding approval. Instead, we propose an evidence-based approach developed with partners and practitioners, informed by, ecologists and applied through practice oriented principles."
The spread of #antibioticresistant#bacteria is reaching new heights, quite literally. A first-of-its-kind study conducted by researchers from Quebec and #France has revealed this kind of bacteria can spread through clouds.
A spherical shell-like structure 1 billion light-years in diameter named Ho’oleilana is discovered in the distribution of relatively nearby galaxies. We posit this is the 1st observation of an individual Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO).
