I work with data and people. I love both. It's complex, sometimes frustrating but always rewarding. I've done RDM. Now I do data management in everything.

It's a very simple idea, very hard to accomplish but absolutely necessary! The research librarian of the future! https://t.co/f4dZi1VRNC

@JamesSurowiecki What happened to Michael Porter and the competitive advantage of nations? Tarifs is = lower quality at a higher price = everyone looses!

In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll introduce how the Elon’s Election Interference Machine™ (EIM) works. Since Musk & his broligarch allies won the presidency for Trump, they’ve now harnessed the machine to interfere in European elections, including the ones in Germany & Romania.

@Ksprbgh Thanks for that! Wishful thinking! Couldn’t see it taken up by mainstream media. So make sense! But do you have any sources?

[Mikael K. Elbæk @melbaek]

Hope this is true! Has it been verified anywhere? Nevertheless worth a read. #UkraineUnderAttack

THREAD 1/7 Intel from a Ukrainian officer about a meeting in Putin’s lair in Urals. Oligarchs convened there so no one would flee. Putin is furious, he thought that the whole war would be easy and everything would be done in 1-4 days. @EPPGroup @general_ben @edwardlucas @politico

[Mikael K. Elbæk @melbaek]

@paulkrugman That depends! I would rely on extensive analysis by people who know what they are doing. Not a single graph. I trust the @SSI_dk who have done a great job overall helping DK through COVID. In #Covid_19 we are (not) all experts 🙄

@HumanomicsMap @MIT 🤨🤯

[Mikael K. Elbæk @melbaek]

@JEFrantsvag Exactly 🤞

[Mikael K. Elbæk @melbaek]

@JEFrantsvag Wow! That’s heavy! Hope you’ll see the sun before 17th May 😅

[Mikael K. Elbæk @melbaek]

@keskitalo Maybe it’s time to revise Prince’s “sometimes it snows in April”
I think @JEFrantsvag can relate 😉

[Mikael K. Elbæk @melbaek]

Awesome explanation of R!

[Dr Philip Lee @drphiliplee1]

Ok, R, what is it and why it's important, thread.

This concept note https://t.co/RitfxrpMex helps individuals, groups or organizations to start proper #DataManagement no matter during #crisis or for #LongTerm. @tudelftlibrary

[Mikael K. Elbæk @melbaek]

@boetter @eirixon @albrechtsenc @videnskabdk An upside of the pandemic is also a general enlightenment of society in scientific method and statistics! How many knew of R before COVID 😊
Big 👍for curiosity and learning! Real learning means exposing ones weak points - which can be really daunting!

[Mikael K. Elbæk @melbaek]

@boetter @eirixon @albrechtsenc @videnskabdk Sorry I’m a academic librarian by nature - can’t help it 😂🤓
And I am allergic to big headlines and fast conclusions in media “based” on science! So maybe I overreacted a bit 😉

[Mikael K. Elbæk @melbaek]

@boetter @eirixon @albrechtsenc Surely social proximity is the main factor. Other factors can hardly be verified during the breakout. I read words like “speculate” and “certain” in the article. We can more or less qualified guesses. I read @videnskabdk for news that are better founded on science.

[Mikael K. Elbæk @melbaek]

@boetter First don’t look for one common denominator. It’s more complex. Besides @eirixon - A factor may also be Herlev and Hvidovre have the two biggest hospitals in DK. Hvidovre being the main COVID-19 center! Majority of the staff live in the area and many of the staff had the 🦠
