For fediversers interested in #science and the rigor of scientific #research, this #nakedcapitalism article is a weekend #mustread 🙏 #PubPeer #RetractionWatch

I knew of the problems with plagiarism & zealous dissemination of pre/non peer-reviewed research papers, much thru electronic socialization of respected journal platforms, which had contributed to rising pseudo-research, but was flabbergasted by the actual depth & breadth of it.🧐🫨🔬

I just noticed that Battlestar Galactica (2003-2009) is back on Prime Video. Miniseries + 4 seasons. TV movies are missing.

Don't waste time, because last year it was only on Prime for a few weeks.

So sieht die Hölle auf Erden von weit oben aus: Jeder orange Punkt auf dieser Karte zeigt eine "thermische Anomalie" an, mutmaßlich ein brennendes Feuer, das in den letzten 24 Stunden via Satellitendaten der NASA in Südamerika entdeckt wurde.

Ah super... maintenant les boutiques en ligne (y compris Amazon) sont remplies de livres générés par I.A., avec bien sûr du contenu foireux.
Ça pourrait être insignifiant si une famille n'avait pas risqué sa vie en mangeant des champignons toxique indiqué comme comestibles par certains de ces livres.

Le texte est généré, la couverture est générée et l' "auteur" se croit malin. (Et s'en vante sur LinkedIn 😁)

J’ai envie de dire que le bullshit a toujours tué, alors si on industrialise et automatise la production du bullshit, ça ne peut rien donner de bon.



Just discovered a new comic on postcolonial critique: "Episodes From a Colonial Present"

"This collective comic project illuminates the coloniality of everyday life as well as the decolonising potential of everyday struggles in the spaces, discourses and practices of so-called global development."

@rvedotrc Haha, no. Those hills are a bit steeper than the terrible uphill bike lane on Randersvej. I took it in Norway a few years ago, to the north of Bergen.

@rvedotrc Bergen is wonderful. And the train trip there from Oslo is awesome, in every sense of the word.

How do you go through this entire story and mention sanctions but not the recent and very related seizure of Maduro's plane?
