Sad that #deRSE20 has been cancelled? Here's the new premier venue to submit RSE conf contributions to: #SORSE. Brought to you as a truly intl. collaborative effort by the @RSE_de@twitter.com, @ResearchSoftEng, @ResearchSoftEng, @nl_rse, @us_rse, @nordic_rse, #beRSE, et al. communities! https://t.co/BTU8tzZNbm

#introduction

I'm a new postdoc at the University of Washington eScience Institute. My PhD is in physics but I'm transitioning to developing statistical learning techniques/software for neuroimaging data. More info at https://autofq.org/.

I'm a fan of open science and reproducibility. I enjoy climbing, hiking, and growing up all over again with my daughter.

I'm looking to engage with people with similar research interests and who can help me further develop myself as a data scientist.

Does anyone know of a guide to academic job interviews in the German tradition for clueless Anglos? I read and speak German but there are still things about German academe that I don't know I don't know. #geisteswissenschaft

@frustratedantiquarian Did you ever read this?

It's long but I love it

27 consortia and cross-cutting initiatives have now published their declaration on joint infrastructure development for the #NFDI ( National Research Data Infrastructure, i.e. the German contribution to #EOSC) :

We want to know more about #RSEng groups in 🇩🇪! Are there any? Where? In which disciplines & funded how?

Do you work in an RSE group (may be called differently)? Add it to the collaborative list and help us analyze status quo and demand: https://t.co/Wuui7Q6hAP #ResearchSoftware

Finally, our institute's website is available in new design and english translation. Next goal: RSS newsfeed :) https://medizininformatik.umg.eu/en/

A new (reverse) acronym to learn for data repositories: TRUST
(Transparency, Responsibiliy, User focus, Sustainability, Technology)

https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-020-0486-7

As I see it, this basically summarizes the criteria of #CoreTrustSeal for data repositories into a nice catch phrase. The criteria are not as well defined as for #FAIR, potentially because that's already part of CTS.

#OpenScience #TRUST

Researchers, are you fed up of performing free reviewing work for commercial journals and other venues that put research behind paywalls? To show that you are against this outdated system, you can sign our new pledge "No free view? No review!" https://nofreeviewnoreview.org/

No free view? No review! Join us in our boycott of closed-access journals. #NoFreeViewNoReview https://nofreeviewnoreview.org/

So I'm thinking

If academia is going to be accused of being a big conspiracy of leftist commies

Let's at least give them a fucking reason and unionize

Wondering why all software and the whole field sucks? Here's what I think is a pretty sharp analysis: https://www.drmaciver.com/2014/02/how-to-write-good-software/
