Working on a product for academic geologists, "Geology from Elsewhere". There are more than 200 geology and other earth sciences journals, challenging enough for scientists to keep up with. But some really important articles are published in general science journals (e.g., Nature ) or in journals that we don't associate with geology. As I already monitor oodles of journals across multiple fields, I can spot these outliers and bring them to your attention. Does this sound useful?

@revk oh noes... how will the under 16s recover his WhatsApp messages now... 🤭

Btw - wskoczył mi właśnie podcast Mateusza Chroboka o Snowdenie i tam już na wstępie pojawia się informacja, że uciekł do Rosji. A że profil pana Chroboka na masto jest nieaktywny od roku i tam nie mogę sprostować, to przypomnę tutaj: nie uciekł - jeśli już, to został tam zesłany przez USA. Konkretniej to USA anulowało mu paszport, gdy miał się przesiadać w Moskwie na inny samolot tak, żeby utknął w Moskwie - co było z ich strony /1

@gsuberland @404mediaco @dalias It artificially disabled trains for the sake of extracting maintenance money.

So if it is not fraud, it is instead infrastructure sabotage and extortion (with a side of racketeering).

Sabotaging rail infrastructure for *any reason* in Poland is a crime.

Advocates for #ActivityPub - IF YOU HAVE A #WORDPRESS SITE, have you installed the ActivityPub plugin? https://wordpress.org/plugins/activitypub/

At the State of the Word address this week, Matt Mullenweg was asked about support for the plugin, and he commented that less than 5,000 sites had installed it. So he wasn't sure how interested people are in it.

So... if you have a WP site, let's start installing that plugin and making more sites available via ActivityPub! 😀
