Will this earthquake certainly isn't going to reassure my family as we prepare for my sabbatical in Perú. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/05/magnitude-8-earthquake-hits-amazon-jungle-peru-190526101100170.html

Universities really love putting up as many roadblocks as possible in the way of getting reimbursed for travel expenses. 😞

Can we all just agree that all flights should have fixed rates between destinations. I'm sick of prices jumping up and down by hundreds of dollars over the course of a day.

@cathal @bgcarlisle it does integrate with Zotero, ownCloud, and GitLab.

Now that our Spring semester is over, my sabbatical is even closer. Nervous excitement!

@vickysteeves I've already seen too many spoilers. I've just hoping that by the time I finally get around to watching, I'll have forgotten...

My university is searching for a Director of the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs. Spread the word!

@jhlee LoL, I'll probably regret this but here goes:

I feel the poop a comin'
It's rollin' 'round the bend,
And I ain't had a bowel movement
Since, I don't know when
I'm stuck here on this toilet
And time keeps draggin' on
But my stomach keeps a-rollin'
So I just sit on down

When I was just a baby
My Mama told me, "Son
Always be a good boy
Don't ever risk the runs, "
But I did it down in Reno
I just flushed it down
When I feel that stomach rumblin'
I hang my head and frown

I just wrote a song about trying to get my son to poop on the potty to the tune of Folsom Prison Blues.

Just put my retainer in for the first time in like three years. All I taste is pain.

@dbs
Sure. I wasn't trying to advocate that DOIs should not be allowed. Moreso noting that DOIs seem to go against the current wording of the community standards.
@bgcarlisle @RaoOfPhysics

@dbs
I believe DatsCite is the other main DOI entity. https://datacite.org/privacy.html
@socrates @RaoOfPhysics

@RaoOfPhysics
I was thinking about the language from the community standards about obfuscation of the link target which occurs with a DOI. Most DOIs are reputable though I don't know about user tracking. However, I could start a random blog and use The Winnower or another service to point DOIs to it.
@socrates

@socrates maybe you've addressed this before so sorry if I've missed it, do DOI links go against the no shortened links clause of the community standards?

@bgcarlisle congrats!

The river in my town is running pretty high. Bad news bears for those downstream.

@vickysteeves
Maybe hide the salary in the job description. Like the first letter of each line spells the amount.
