Hey #OpenScience advocates! Ever had the feeling that you wanted to download all of your open science / research software #RSE #RSEng thoughts into a collaborator/grad student's brain, but your regular coffee catchups aren't cutting it??? Just point them to this new #SummerSchool from the awesome @madicken!

I have a talk looking for a home.

HMU if you have CFPs still open and want to hear a nerd question their entire professional data + software reality.

I just love this image - it highlights why we need all the different telescopes: each of them looks at the same object in different ways. And only when working together a complete image emerges.

Here, #Euclid's wide field is combined with #Hubble's zoom-in and #JWST sharpest IR image we ever obtained, allowing us to study how radiation interacts with interstellar matter.

Is there a comprehensive archive, with references, of Elsevier's many sins against scientific progress? @albertcardona @brembs The lead authors of a paper I played a small role in want to submit to Cell 🤢 and I would like to dissuade them.

Follow-up Q: I have a vague vibe that, although the entire traditional publishing system needs to die in a fire, NPG are not quite as scummy as Elsie. Is that vibe justified or not really?
