Ten simple rules for making training materials FAIR ➡️ https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1007854 #FAIR #FAIRtraining #OpenAccess

Your #Android phone has a so-called Google advertising ID*, a unique number for your device. Using that, #tracking companies follow and record what you do on your phone, even across apps from different companies.
Luckily, you can now disable the advertising ID to make it harder for them to track you. We recommend doing this to everyone. Here's how it works.
*Unless of course, you’re using a google-free #LineageOS, #GrapheneOS or similar. :)

Arrived in Paris for #ica22! Our Airbnb has a really interesting piece of local ICT history on display: A Minitel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minitel)! I have never seen one "in the wild" before.

This Friday is a day packed to the brim with excitement for me: I will travel to #ica22 in Paris (for my first ICA since Puerto Rico 2015 and my 2nd in-person conference since the pandemic), #strangerthings will continue and #obiwankenobi will start...
@onlytina Longtime happy Mozilla Thunderbird User here
Im Auftakt der Veranstaltungsreihe "Show and Tell - Social Media Data in Research Practice" von NDFI4Culture, KonsortSWD und Text+ haben Carolin Gerlitz (Uni Siegen) und ich Inputs zum Thema "Twitter Tools: Collecting, Curating and Analysing Data" gegeben. Meine Materialien dazu gibt es hier:

A new study finds 3,000 websites on which third-party tracking companies scoop up what you type into forms in real time — even if you never hit submit. This happens on about 1,800 websites for E.U. users too, likely in violation of the GDPR.

Tracking science and its users has been a worrying development over recent years, especially by academic publishers such as #Elsevier. It's also something the academy isn't talking enough about IMHO. Such tracking & surveillance is an affront to academic freedom.
Taking up this thread are Eiko Fried & Robin Kok who placed a subject access request with Elsevier. This blog post describes what they found -- and it confirms the surveillance we all fear https://eiko-fried.com/welcome-to-hotel-elsevier-you-can-check-out-any-time-you-like-not/
@mycroft Am Ende meines Beitrags habe ich die Frage zur Entwicklung der Relevanz von Twitter gestellt und Mastodon als Beispiel für eine Plattform erwähnt, die in jüngster Zeit an Relevanz gewonnen hat (und nebenbei die Leute eingeladen, ins Fediverse - speziell zu fediscience oder scholar.social - zu kommen). Mal schauen, ob da noch was kommt 🙂

#introduction Hi fediscience.org! Thank you very much for hosting my account. I am a geologist postdoctoral researcher working on geochemistry/mineralogy/crystallography
Spoiler Alert: Es wird von mir auch einen ganz kurzen Shoutout zu Mastodon und fediscience geben :-)
Kurze Erinnerung: Heute um 14 Uhr findet der Auftakt zur „Show & Tell“-Reihe „Social-Media-Daten in der Forschungspraxis“ statt. Es geht um Twitter-Tools mit Kurzinputs von Carolin Gerlitz (Uni Siegen) und mir. Anmeldung ist noch möglich.

@empathroet @sociology Mein Favorite Part ist mittlerweile tatsächlich die Datenaufbereitung. Seitdem ich vor einigen Jahren das #tidyverse in #rstats entdeckt habe.
