Yay, the first of my regular column essays for Strange Horizons is out! I worked super hard on this one, a history of the symbiosis & mutual influence between western genre fiction & Japanese anime/manga. Designed for non-anime-fans interested in learning how the fandoms nourished each other. W/ bonus WWII history & sparkly musicals! http://strangehorizons.com/non-fiction/a-mitfreude-of-anime-and-mangas-relationship-with-anglophone-science-fiction-or-this-essay-will-not-try-to-get-you-into-anime-and-manga/
For freely available online textbooks on a variety of courses, LibreTexts is a great resource, especially to begin exploring a subject.
They're mostly accessible to non-specialists and have many advanced features: https://libretexts.org/advanced.html

I'm a chemistry professor at UC Irvine that specializes in inorganic chem and electrochem.
My research focuses on #electrification of the chemical industry, #decarbonization, #carboncapture, and #sustainability. Current projects on electrochemical carbon capture and utilization, but also electric fields in #catalysis and #bioinsipred systems.
I'm an #academicmom that loves cooking, running, cycling, hiking, ultimate frisbee, and ice hockey but never has enough time.
Paper day! We wrote a paper on the JWST backgrounds, how they compare to predictions, and implications for science performance. https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.09890
Discerning astrophysicists like their deep fields like chocolate and coffee – as dark as possible. So, how dark is the JWST sky?

I wonder whether any of the #Firefox developers are aware how I feel every time they push the "Restart to Keep Using Firefox" message in my face while in the middle of working?! I want to support browser diversity but it's difficult to continue using a product that shows so little respect for their users.
I can understand if this were for a serious 0-day vulnerability or something but this is for every single update!
Just saying no to leaf blowers ✊
I may have to deploy the rake however 🤷♂️

Hi #ChemiVerse
I might come to regret this, but I've seen some journalists compiling lists of people on here & I thought it might be useful in the early days here to do something similar for the chemistry community (& those who interact with the chemistry community – you can define that quite liberally).
So, here is a Google Form that you can fill in if you wish: https://forms.gle/gF9MLUGMWs23EFix6
And it feeds into this Google Sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qdJvHHvu-BC4N6nk1jNMhTwoBrIaqHLUCZRf9pCQwDs/edit?usp=sharing
