  1. Is this some sort of bad taste joke? WTF Elsevier? Now we are supposed to BUY additional services on top of everything else to have a chance to get published?!! Anyone else received this?

  2. RE: indieweb.social/@tg/1162739849

    Great advice not only for devs but for early career scientists.

    "That means that you can take risks. You can ignore the prior art. You can push further and discover what your tastes are and how you might make better software, and differently shaped software. Use those new powers to build the future, not to another piece of the past."

    Too many find a niche early on where they can publish lots of papers and get grants and then never leave or stray too far.

  3. @steveroyle Done!
    IMHO it would be nice if @biorxivpreprint and @medrxivpreprint would accept theoretical / conceptual preprints (as far as I know they are rejected on screening, unless it changed recently). So I made that suggestion on the survey.
