Holy moly this thingy is sick!

@rastinza good luck with your PhD - I’m just finishing the last bit of analysis and then the big write up begins

This. #phdlife

#introduction

Hi, I'm Cristina, an italian #scicomm professional working in #academia, where I lead a master program in #communication of #science.

I hate writing so I don't know how it happened that I started two blogs, wrote books, magazine colums, and papers ... All about #social #media, #technology, and #society.

I enjoy exploring weird conversations on social media, and sharing memes on Telegram.

I love #cats , #music 🎶 #scifi 👽 and
I spend my freetime playing #golf (and filling my #mastodon timeline after the
#TwitterMigration )

Replication crisis:

“Don't get me wrong, I think there are real reasons to be concerned....But I'm not sure calling it a crisis is particularly helpful because I think that can just be a bit distracting.”

This is great: the Mastodon API supports reading/writing of your read position via the `markers` API. If clients implemented this (it doesn’t look any of them do) we could have cross-client timeline position syncing!

I’m working on a #Chemisty #art project. What is your favorite software for displaying beautiful #organic #molecules - 3D and line? Cheap or free is even better. Thanks!! #sciencemastodon #chemtoots #ChemistryMastodon #ChemistryTwitter

I get 'spaced' out sometimes, too.

The #UofTMississauga Master of Science in Biomedical Communications program bridges #art, #science, #medicine and #communications to bring visual media to life.

To this extent I'm really interested to know how the age breakdown of people on the #Fediverse. On one hand it would seem to make sense to me that most people here remember the "old internet" before the centralization and they're here to rekindle that flame of independence. On the other hand the youths are generally pretty up on this whole technology thing. I grew up on the internet and since then smartphones have become even more ubiquitous.

"Try reading the following out loud:

Hashtag screenreaders for the hashtag blind and hashtag VisuallyImpaired read every hashtag HashTags out loud and so it's hard for people with hashtag VisualImpairment to get the sense of the post because it's being constantly interrupted by well-meaning hashtag accessibility hashtag allies.

Easier to read with a block of hashtags at the bottom:
#screenreaders #VisuallyImpaired #blind #allies #Hashtags #accessibility"

@rastinza In a recent preprint (https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.14962), we have shown that one can also get obtain continuous energy surfaces (denotes as PlaNet) for multi-dimensional data and "larger" molecules such as ethanol. Unfortunately, for systems larger than 40 electrons, these methods get quite expensive. So, their scaling in terms of size is still very much active research.
