I'm working to transition my #blog from primarily an #IndieAuthor website to a #science #writing platform. Since I can't compete with big media outlets, I need a niche. My ideas so far:
- Essays that celebrate #nature 's tenacity in the face of #ClimateChange.
- Reports on new #research that doesn't make major headlines.
- #Environment #news roundups that include fictionalized forecasts of the scenarios.
Please vote (and boost) so I can get a sense of the potential audience. If you have other suggestions, add them in the comments!

Oli kelpo tutkimusraportti, joskin raskas lukea nykyaivoillani. Twitteristä pakoa eikun siirtymistä tarkasteltiin samaan tapaan kuin vaikka koronan leviämistä, mitä tuli infektioihin ja tartuntoihin. Kiinnostaisi varmaan epidemiologejakin? Hurja työ tuossa oli tehty ja mittavaa aineistoa analysoitu. Itse kun en Twitterissä käynyt, puuttui mahdollisuus koettaa yhdistää makrotason kuvausta mikrotason todellisiin tapahtumiin ja keskusteluihin. Kiitos kuitenkin teille, jotka suostuttelitte sitkeästi muuttoon tietopohjaisesti ja omalla esimerkillä, vaarantamatta uhrien identiteettiä. Tuollaisen ymmärsin olleen tehokkainta, mikä tietysti ei liene vaikuttamisen teorioiden vinkkelistä yllättävää.

Herds of Mysterious ‘Glacier Mice’ Baffle Scientists
I am so frustrated that @thecarpentries is laying off 7 talented people - 4 with PhDs - mostly #research #software #engineers - because of financial constraints.
The Carpentries train researchers in digital and coding skills - allowing them to use computational methods, because universities often aren't placed to do this themselves.
In a time when the only organisations that can train huge models are those that can afford the compute time, we need more people with the skills to evaluate them and find their weaknesses.
We need to find a way to fund the Carpentries or we will have a generation of researchers who won't have the computational research skills needed to keep Big Tech accountable.

@barneyharris Images are (usually) huge - an image is basically an archive of an entire operating system - and so if you only share the image itself, people using it have little hope of understanding what you put in it. So for transparency, it's best to share the recipe you used to create the image as well, namely the Dockerfile. The Dockerfile is like the source code for the image.
And Docker image builds are not strictly reproducible; if you build images from the same Dockerfile at different times or in different environments you can get different resulting images, unless the Dockerfile is carefully designed to avoid any dependency on external factors. So it helps to share the image itself to guarantee that people have access to the same thing you used.
noob question about #reproducible #research #docker #rstats #python #academicchatter #foss
If I'm looking to use Docker to assist with making my research reproducible then should I rely on both Dockerfiles and Dockerimages or one or the other? As I understand it, the Dockerfile specifies how the Docker image will be built but an image can contain the scripts, original data, and correctly versioned software / libraries etc. So why not just / always publish the image?

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?
Edit 1: here’s an explanation of the new eLife process: https://elifesciences.org/peer-review-process
Edit 2: clarified the link between step 3 and 4 (either/or, not both)

Jane Cooke Wright is a pioneering cancer researcher and surgeon. Not only did she contribute a lot to chemotherapy, she developed a drug to treat breast/skin cancer.
AND if that wasn’t enough, she did something extraordinary for humans and animals alike. She figured out how to use human skin tissue for testing instead of using mice.
