4. Bluesky (Sky Blue) A relatively recent addition after this place blew up - Bluesky boasts around 60-70% off Twitter's daily research post volume despite being substantially newer and smaller. This is one of the places to which #AcademicTwitter relocated as #AcademicSky. 6/24

Started learning Affinity Designer last week for graphical abstracts. I'm a second year PhD student and I have no idea what I'm doing in a design tool. But it's fun. One-time purchase, no subscription, no telemetry. If you make graphical abstracts for your papers, what do you use? #AcademicTwitter #rstats

Laura Kampf on how kids need to see makers making cool / real stuff (instead of only childproof and safe stuff) to get interested in making:
"They can watch professional ski jumpers and they are allowed to watch them. So they can watch us, too."

Many academic papers could be half as long—or less. But we write them to be self-contained and accessible to a broad scholarly audience, so we repeat background, define well-known terms, pad the argument just to be safe. And then publishers restrict the number of footnotes.
In an ideal world, a paper would be short, dense, even cryptic—and followed by a massive apparatus of notes explaining context, terminology, prior work, alternatives. Instead, we do the opposite: long main text, minimal notes

I am currently writing an NSF AISL proposal due 1/8/25. I have also been invited to join one at Purdue. Is it against the rules to be co-PI on 2 NSF proposals at the same time?
Thanks. -

@jglypt I post & read on Mastodon because I prefer a non-monetised space where I curate my own feed and we are not manipulated by algos. Many highly intelligent people found the learning curve here too steep and opted for the convenience of Bluesky. I would like to read what they say, & be read by those people too. I see nothing wrong with opt-in #Bridgy, & every reason to reunite communities as valuable as #ScienceTwitter & #AcademicTwitter. Let's encourage widespread use!
