Ripubblico con visibilità pubblica, post originale qui: https://mastodon.uno/@Madmonkey/110989204365871563
Molti "big player" dopo un rapido passaggio su #Mastodon sono fuggiti di nuovo su #Xwitter, perché lì c'è la-gente-che-conta™, continuando di fatto a dare ossigeno a quella merda lì.
Complimenti 😏

Worried about book bannings and attacks on libraries and schools? please consider
It's not safe for democracy, or cultural posterity, to leave an "on/off switch" for library books in the hands of corporate publishers

From the preface by Tomaso Montanari, on the issue of administrative and centralised #evaluation of #research: "The arguments you are about to read are partly theoretical and partly technical, and they apply to every discipline. But what is at stake is political, in the highest sense of the word: and why is well summed up by the quotation embedded in the title of Maria Chiara Pievatolo's contribution: 'Caesar supra grammaticos'. In other words, it is about the control (however direct or facilitated by internal reservations within the scientific community) that the government exercises over research: a control that fundamentally denies the #autonomy of research, which should be inviolable as a guarantee for everyone".

“Some searches still just give you a normal list of links, but when the results are right there at the top, there is often no point in ever leaving Google.
That could be disastrous for the rest of the internet. Google, after all, dominates the global search market, sending billions of visits to websites across the web every day.”

Stop evaluating academics based on #university #ranking indicators. Start rewarding the contributions of faculty and researchers in all areas of university activities.
Stop constructing university strategies based on university rankings. Do not use ranking tiers in analytical reports for management decision making; instead, focus on the actual contributions made by a university (scientific, educational, and societal).
Stop evaluating universities based on ranking indicators. Every university has a unique mission, and only fulfillment of this mission really matters.
Stop using ranking information in national strategies and other kinds of ambitions. Only universities’ contributions to national and global goals should be considered.
Stop paying money for consulting services to ranking compliers. This is a pure conflict of interests. Source: https://www.leidenmadtrics.nl/articles/the-role-of-university-rankings-in-research-evaluation-revisited

Wonderful! @hildabast writes:
"It’s exciting to join in the growth and success of truly social media – media that doesn’t trap us in commercially-owned spaces that are extractive and manipulative. It feels worth investing in a community for the longterm when you know they can follow you if you move to a different neighborhood."

Olga #Karatch rappresenta una figura di spicco del movimento pacifista europeo, insieme a Yurii #Sheliazhenko anche lui sotto attacco, accusato ingiustamente e falsamente di “giustificare la guerra di aggressione russa” e per questo sottoposto agli arresti domiciliari.
"La verità - spiega Mao Valpiana, presidente del Movimento Nonviolento - è che l’#obiezione di coscienza, la #diserzione, la #renitenza alla leva sono ormai un fenomeno di massa che inizia a fare paura".

LK-99 lessons: https://nitter.cz/MichaelSFuhrer/status/1689446900284764160#m - an accurate #openpeerreview that took less than three weeks. But, according to https://aisa.sp.unipi.it/dicers-oaths-ore-coara-and-the-italian-national-agency-for-the-evaluation-of-the-university-and-research-systems/ , open peer review cannot be scientific.
