got some feedback on improvements for cherulean! standalone legibility for each colour is better now and a palette "menu" (i like blue)

Jesus christ @Zoom do you really have to update and re-install every time I need to join a meeting? How much could have changed between now and last week? 😅

One one hand, AI could bring mass unemployment and hypercharge wealth inequality.

On the other, it can tell me how to adjust legends in ggplot in seconds and provide example code.

I, for one, welcome our new silicon overlords🤖

Are you new to writing grants, or want to see some examples of proposals to different private and public agencies?

All of our successful and failed proposals that are not restricted from sharing are publicly available here: https://t.co/B190tbzYEq

Can we all collectively agree on whether hitting enter sends a message or adds a line break? Looking at you #MicrosoftTeams 🤨

@Drew_Lab Thanks for the shoutout @Drew_Lab! Scaling is always an interesting problem, especially in complex ecosystems. Double that for organisms as complex as corals 😅

I think that with increasing public access to AI art generators like #StableDiffusion, #dalle2 and #midjourney there will be a move toward, and market for, AI-art-frames; think super high quality OLED wall mounted displays to showcase your own generative art at home.

There was an audible "WOW" from the audience when @juliesquid showed how you can paste in DOI and automatically generate a citation.

Plz RT to help smash the paperarchy

Couldn't @arxiv and other pre-print servers have an option to review articles? Reviewers would need an #ORCID so the process becomes open; reducing a bunch of bad review practices. Update and then, boom, certified peer reviewed?🤷‍♂️1/9

My postdoc & I have had a manuscript under review for 9 months & today it was returned to us bc they said they were unable to find suitable reviewers.

Has this happened to anyone else? I’m completely shocked & frustrated.

[Kyle Zawada @KyleZawada]

A full, publicly available record of the peer review process, allowing papers to rapidly be updated and contributed to by the broader community without insane publication costs and waiting times. Surely a better idea than the current system? 9/9
