Which governance instruments can we employ to promote #OpenScience? Based on the pyramid of #CultureChange by @briannosek here are governance instruments that can encourage researchers to engage in two important practices of open science: documenting and sharing research #data. https://renebekkers.wordpress.com/2022/11/09/governance-instruments-to-promote-open-science/

Few days ago: zero ppl found.
Today: 149
I’m impressed, ppl migrate indeed.

Why do I like Mastodon: it’s not in the hands of a single entity and I believe that’s key for a place that fulfills the role Twitter does for me (so far). 🤷‍♂️

@LauLauThom Wonder if it can be renamed to 'tootorial' later? ;)

Who's around to transform #ScienceTwitter 🐦 into #ScienceMastodon? 🐘

Just because it is Monday morning and the #TwitterMigration is still going on, it may be worth repeating that #science would do well to replace their antique journals with modern technology:
https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5526634
The three most important reasons why:
- The most prestigious journals publish the least reliable science:
https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnhum.2018.00037/full
- Journal prices are tenfold inflated:

- Open infrastructures for research data, code, models, software, etc. are sorely missing.

#OnThisDay 155 years ago, the first woman to receive a Nobel prize was born: Marie Skłodowska-Curie!

Today, the @MSCActions@twitter.com 🇪🇺 fellowship bears her name and helps young scientists in their research.

We will keep supporting them towards a better future for our next generations.

Since a lot has happened lately, it could be a good time to re-do an #introduction / #introductions.

As a political sociologist I work with text, digital methods & film on matters of #security, #counterterrorism & #surveillance, from a critical perspective.

I currently run the project @securityvision on the politics of computer vision with amazing media artists/designers/visual anthropologists: Ruben van de Ven (@r), Cyan Bae, Ildikó Plájás & Elka Smith.

At Leiden University I'm trying to promote research through making (#film, #photography, #art & other methods) at @recntr, together with Mark Westmoreland and Julian Ross.

I geek out on photo & cinema #cameras & #lenses as well as #floss and #coding, although more from the outside. Working on my first "hello world" in #python

I'm likely to post on #security #computervision #biometrics #facialrecognition #masssurveillance #privacy #technology #film #cinema #multimodality #academia

#open #access #book on scientific visualization (#python + #matplotlib) at https://github.com/rougier/scientific-visualization-book (don't buy the book from Amazon)

You can now read and engage with news and information about 🇪🇺 EU policies, in a privacy-focused environment and with no transfer of data outside the EU.

This initiative is part of an EU pilot for supporting and using social media platforms based on open-source software.

#EuropeanUnion #Mastodon #Fediverse

I wrote a nano tool that tries to extract the #Fediverse accounts of your #Twitter followings: https://fedifinder.glitch.me/

It searches for the patterns @user@host.tld, user@host.tld and host.tld/@user in the screen name, description, location and URL field. It displays them to you in the correct format for easy copying as well as a CSV download that can be imported to #Mastodon.

Known issue: Mail addresses are included as false positives because people write their handle without a leading @: name@host.tld

@freemo @Waldemar I'm talking about following hashtags, here:

Checked the #Patreon page for #Mastodon again just now. We are tantalizingly close to the current fundraising goal, with $11,375 of $12,000 raised. Join me in donating. We can hit the target easily if enough of the #twittermigration #twexit #influx chip in. Let's get @Gargron and team to $12k per month.
