(I am planning to disseminate some of the results in short form here eventually, for now I need a few days rest and sort out some remaining admin issues. For now, you can find the abstract of my thesis here: https://t.co/Ia54EzD1dX )

@Knowlesy83 Looking at their logo, it was not the only thing that didn't work out as planned for them 🤣

Most new scientific projects barely move the needle forward on knowledge, but we have to pretend that they are world-changing stuff or no one will give us money

I wonder why academics are so surprised by the current political climate.

If you need more time and you are a pre-doc researcher, we are also organizing a PhD colloquium at EuroCarto'22 to present your ongoing and early-stage research and have a conversation among PhD candidates:

@getbounds @calmstormvc @georgmolzer @shadowmap_org As always, it's a long way from proof-of-concept with select data 🧪 to a product that works globally for actual users 🌍🌞 ...

From a time when cartographers hacked their university's (text-only) printer to give them more shades of grey:

Musings on the misleading semantics of the phrase "no evidence", and possible alternatives to use for communicating scientific (non-)results to a wider audience. Great read!

@cartocalypse What's the (SW) setup?
