Heyy kids!

Could you please drop me a quick comment to this form on my web?

Theme is:

Your favorited #solarpunk (primarly), #steampunk #atompunk #dieselpunk whatever #punk works of #visualart #writing #games etc...

I'm being too socio-economically sarcastic about the genre and need references for long winter nights, and possible essay on stuff.

As a biologist, I have determined that shorebirds can be divided into 6 categories:

- Short bill long legs fren
- Fancy billed big bois
- Short billed round bois
- Short kings w big bills
- Long legged supermodels
- Silly-lookin' babies

What is the absolute worst thing human beings have enabled in the modern era?

No, no, forget the usual topics

It is this:

😱 🦟

" #Mosquitoes have arrived in #Iceland

Three #mosquitos were found in Kjós recently. This has been confirmed by the Icelandic Institute of Natural History. This is the first time that the flies have been found on Icelandic soil."

I am so very excited to share this story. Def. a career highlight!

Having the opportunity to sit down and have a one-on-one candid chat with the woman who discovered pulsars and changed the course of astrophysics, leading to me being extremely passionate about this topic and eventually moving into a career of pulsar astronomy. Yeah, this was big.

I hope you enjoy this interview, where Prof. Bell Burnell offers some personal insight into the history of the big discovery as well as the legacy of one of astronomy’s most iconic and influential figures.

What an honour it is to tell this story!

Hey Ya'all: iNaturalist update on their #enshittification with #GenAI

https://www.inaturalist.org/blog/118695-exploring-new-ways-to-learn-from-inaturalist-s-community-expertise

They seem to still not understand how LLM works, that hallucinations are inherent to the machine, and they *cannot* deliver on the "promises" they are making.

*I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU DELETE YOUR iNATURALIST ACCOUNT*

I say this as a scientist. Who has used iNaturalist for research. Who has done almost 30,000 ID's on it, mostly for others. The danger is immense, and they are ignoring facts about the very way these machines work to make.

Wild! A meteorite may have struck the windshield of a 737 flying over Colorado, according to early reports.

Whatever the object was, it cut a pilot's arm but did not seriously damage the plane.

#OpenScience and the #fediverse .. let's get that ball rolling 💪

@jfietkau @jonny and @bonfire opened a brainstorm and evaluation on how we can provide better support for the academic world and #science in general to the #ActivityPub-based fediverse.

Various different iniitiatives are underway, and there's great opportunity to bundle forces and align these efforts where possible. Set standards.

Interested? Join the discussion:

Tiny things can have huge impacts, and in this case I support the idea of marking a day to raise awareness of the tiny coccolithophores that help make our world what it is. Protecting them is protecting ourselves.

“Research by Save Our Science, a national advocacy group, found that for every dollar invested in research, there is a nearly $5 return as discoveries create jobs and new markets for Canadian products”

“The Canadian government is not really very supportive of research overall.” said Mak who says too many Canadian ideas and the jobs they create are lost to other countries.”
