This is it. This is what everyone is enabling by humoring genAI: you spend months writing something that took you years to get at, for an opaque algorithm that a few control to spit a number and cut you off right there and then. This is what we're up against 🧪

EU friends: pls be aware that you cannot share certain types of data on Zenodo because Zenodo does actually not comply with GDPR. @lakens.bsky.social 's blog has a great summary. It's a pretty serious reason to avoid Zenodo for researchers who work with data, if I understand the issue correctly.

No, that is not the alternative The alternative was treating like a normal news story, and not a trial by media - one that was so clearly turbocharged by Arday’s ethnic and social background and the growing resentment in the establishment in the UK of having more black people in high places

A brave and tough call to make. It's hard to overstate how influential OSF has been on science in the past ~15 years. It's been such a staple that you'd almost forget how much cost, time, and effort it must be to keep going. Kudos to the OSF team for everything they've done.

🚨New #OSF #preprint alert! We test how 5 researcher choices affect divergence point analyses with bootstrapping in visual-world eye-tracking. Bin size and significance-window length matter most, and there's a consistent overestimation bias. See also osf.io/preprints/ps... for some recommendations.

The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast' 10/10 response, no notes
Image of the mechanical ladder outside the Louvre

Text below says WENN'S MAL WIEDER SCHNELL GEHEN MUSS (When you need to move fast)

Underneath is more German text which translates as "The Böcker Agilo transports your treasures weighing up to 400kg at 42m/min - quiet as a whisper."

If you use divergence point analysis code from Stone et al. 2020 or 2021, note that we made a code revision recently, detailed in the Analysis folder: osf.io/exbmk/ Shouldn't majorly affect previous analyses, but the revised version should be used going forward.

I did my PhD with Ed Deci, who usually says very few words. In our meetings, it was his reserved nature that gradually allowed me to come out of my shell, be my own person. That experience teaches me one valuable lesson now that I mentor others: know when to shut up.

Compressing the achievements of 4 researchers across 4 modules into a 1000-word narrative-style CV has resulted in a document that is probably less informative than a regular CV. On the upside it's also taking infinitely longer to compile, which means I can avoid grading.
