"Bei der nächsten Social-Media-Plattform wird alles anders. Oder: Warum ich mich nicht bei Bluesky anmelde" - meine Gedanken speziell für die Geschichtswissenschaft (aber nicht nur), was man nach der Implosion der Twitter-Community und der Fragmentierung der Social-Media-Landschaft nun tun kann/soll... =>drüben bei Zeitgeschichte Online erschienen https://zeitgeschichte-online.de/node/70045

mfenner,

@Mareike2405 Ein sehr lesenswerter Beitrag, meine eigenen Erfahrungen und Geschichte sind ähnlich (aber ich habe Twitter kurz und schmerzlos im November 2022 verlassen).
Zwei Gedanken: wie nutze ich Blogs in den sich wandelnden sozialen Medien (z.B. die Fediverse-Integration in Wordpress), und was ist mit Newslettern (und Plattformen wie Medium, Ghost und Substack, die das eingebaut haben). Die nächsten Monate und Jahre werden spannend.

We just released data on crown maps for 100 million trees in the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) with information on location, species identify, size, and alive/dead status.

We created this dataset by combining deep learning, remote sensing, and extensive field data to build models that can detect and classify individual trees. Models are almost 80% accurate and can be improved with additional field data collection.

mfenner,

@ethanwhite @hrbrmstr I watched a YouTube video by @simon last week that uses https://datasette.io and public data about tree locations in San Francisco to do interesting data science: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kDFBnXaw-c

The final presentation in the morning session on research assessment is by @mostlyphysics: How can open citations and metadata help us in reforming research assessment?

mfenner, to random

The second day of the Workshop on Open Citations just started. With three talks about research assessment.

mfenner, to random

In the Workshop on Open Citations poster session I had a nice discussion with @MsPhelps about her SCOSS https://scoss.org poster, and questions on how open infrastructure can be supported by the community.

mfenner, to random

After the lunch break and a few short pitches for the posters that we look at later in the afternoon, @essepuntato how talks about the work that OpenCitations has done over the last five years. One of the important recent activities is consolidating the various (COCI, DOCI, POCI, OROCI) into one index.

Last time I did conference microblogging was before COVID on a platform called Twitter (and before FriendFeed). The Fediverse is a good alternative, mainly because posts can be longer and are not presented via algorithms, but via a timeline of posts by people you follow.

Book metadata using onyx metadata are often not connecting to related resources, in contrast to @crossref metadata, according to Nina Tscheke in her presentation. The lack of using PIDs for book metadata is a big problem.

Next presentation at the Workshop of Open Citations is Open metadata for books by Nina Tscheke from @science_open . She talks about the metadata disconnect between different systems relevant for book publishing.

Today and tomorrow I am using the hashtag to report from the Workshop of Open Citations in Bologna. You can also follow along via the live streaming, more info at https://workshop-oc.github.ion

mfenner,

@mwfc @opencitations thanks, switched to and updated my posts.

mfenner,

@mwfc @opencitations Acoustics are ok but some echo. It is a 16th century building after all.

Ten minutes into the Workshop on Open Citations, the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment https://coara.eu was first mentioned. Research assessment is an important theme in the workshop.

mfenner, (edited ) to random

The Workshop on OpenCitations started with an introduction by @essepuntato. I am very excited to attend the workshop in person again after a hiatus of four years. Virtual meetings are nice but don’t provide the informal social interactions in coffee breaks and the evenings

mfenner, to random

Arrived in Bologna for the @opencitations workshop tomorrow and Friday. https://workshop-oc.github.io. Looking forward to presentations and informal discussions, so much has happened since the last in-person workshop I attended in 2019.

The crucial 2005 paper by Karikó and Weissman that demonstrated how mRNA modifications reduce the recognition by Toll-like receptors, paving the path for mRNA vaccines.

Like Nobel prize-winning research before, the paper was rejected by Nature, Cell, and Science.

Um halb zwölf wird der in Medizin verkündet.

Wichtigste Kandidatin ist Katalin für die Technologie hinter den -Impfstoffen.

Ich finde auch, dass es nen Preis für die geben sollte. Aber nicht heute, sondern Mittwoch, in Chemie.

mfenner,

@Fischblog Volltreffer! Und voll verdient. Und gewissermassen „Chemie“ mehr als „Medizin und Physiologie“, ähnlich wie CRISPR.

I'm not sure how long this has been live on my Mastodon instance (.social), but I just turned on public search for my profile. This means my posts can be searched for, like in the good old days of Twitter. If you go to 'edit profile' and then click 'privacy and reach', you will see this.

mfenner,

@ricmac This is a feature of the Mastodon 4.2.0 release, in final beta testing and will be released very soon. Some instances like yours already run the new code.

For more than ten years, re3data, a global registry of research data repositories (RDRs), has been helping scientists, funding agencies, libraries, and data centers with finding, identifying, and referencing RDRs. As the world’s largest directory of RDRs, re3data currently describes over 3,000 RDRs on the basis of a comprehensive metadata schema. The service allows searching for RDRs of any type and from all disciplines.

New addition to my blog: DOIs! Using the super cool new Rogue Scholar service (https://rogue-scholar.org/), I've added DOIs and long-term archiving to all my blog posts, so if you've ever wanted to cite one of my blog posts but journals were unhappy about a blog post URL in the references, now you have a DOI for cover :)

mfenner,

@mcarondiotte @andrew Andrew, you have done a nice integration of the DOIs, including the DOI icon.

mfenner,

@mcarondiotte @andrew What you could do is improve your blog pages (both list view and single post) to play nicely with Zotero, probably not a big effort. I can do the same with Rogue Scholar pages (Zotero works for https://rogue-scholar.org/posts but not for individual blogs).

Rogue Scholar joins the Fediverse

https://doi.org/10.53731/f1mhr-wps22

Today I am happy to announce that the Rogue Scholar science blog archive has joined the Fediverse, the federated social network that communicates using the ActivityPub protocol. I have launched a Mastodon instance at https://rogue-scholar.social that accepts Science Blog bots as accounts, publishing summaries of blog posts.

mfenner,

@elduvelle Rogue Scholar is an archive for science blogs and adds important functionality. The 40 blogs that are participating are listed here: https://rogue-scholar.org/blogs

mfenner, to random

The first issue of the weekly Rogue Scholar Digest newsletter was just sent, including summaries from 11 blog posts from 10 different blogs published in the last seven days. Only available via email, you can sign up for free at https://blog.front-matter.io/#/portal/signup
