My last article, written with my colleague and friend Jorge León, for @ACMEJournal@twitter.com.
In it, we analyse how #urban #commons fit into European public law, questioning the viability of the 3rd way (neither public nor private).

I am new at this #mastodon instance: I'm an architect and PhD on social sciences who studies the commodifications between #cities, #technology and #society in the context of the Urban Studies and I am now pursuing a more data-scientist approach. I've been using #R for some years and I am now starting with #python
I'm looking for people with similar research interests or who can help me improving my skills.
Thanks @cxli for kindly introducing me to this nice ritual.
Come and join a great team!
Already excited to meeting the person with whom I will be working directly next academic year!

“In Finland, the # of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” https://scoop.me/housing-first-finland-homelessness/

This incredible invention whisks 900 people from the heart of London to the center of Rotterdam in just over three hours.
The tools needed for a low-carbon future aren’t waiting to be discovered by billionaires; they already exist and are waiting to be discovered by politicians.

1. allows disabled people and immunocompromised people to attend

Public health messaging about Covid-19 has focused almost exclusively on hospitalizations and deaths. The omission of long Covid, which may affect between 8 million and 23 million Americans, deprives the public of the knowledge necessary to understand the risks of various activities, make informed decisions about risk-taking, and understand what is happening to them if they feel sick for an extended period.

Fellow #academics , I need your help:
What reasons would you give a student from social sciences or humanities to learn #coding?
I need to convince them that #coding is not just for Engineers, and they could/should learn it, too.

🤦And that's just one of the reasons why education centres (and specially schools) should only be using open source software

New study: nearly 90% of learning software Ss used during the pandemic "collected students’ information and shared it with marketers and data brokers, who could then build data profiles used to target the children with ads that follow them around the Web." https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/05/24/remote-school-app-tracking-privacy/

No free view? No review!
I've just sign up for this proyect: No free view? No review! (https://nofreeviewnoreview.org/). I like the idea:
"We believe that science should evolve towards a different publishing model in which all scientific publications are freely available to readers as open access, without charging authors unfair prices. For this reason, we will avoid serving as peer reviewers for venues that do not make publicly available the research that we review".
