  1. #Introduction

    Hello fediverse,

    I am an interdisciplinary theoretical and numerical physicist working at #CNRS and newly affiliated with the SETE in Moulis, Ariège, France, a cutting-edge experimental and theoretical ecology lab researching the impacts of global anthropogenic changes on biodiversity and ecosystems.

    For 20+ years before, I was an astrophysicist working at the large Institut de Recherche en Astrophysique et Planétologie IRAP in Toulouse .

    In 2023, deeply concerned by the ongoing global crises, I decided to initiate a gradual shift of my research in theoretical and numerical astrophysics (from the Sun to cosmological scales) , plasmas physics and fluid dynamics at IRAP to research the impacts of global anthropogenic changes on ecosystem dynamics and biodiversity.

    I tell the ongoing story of this academic transition and related ethical research musings in a blog, "Looking up".

    I am still in the process of building the foundations of my research in ecology, oriented on the theoretical and numerical modelling of ecosystem dynamics in space and time, and how they may shift through sudden bifurcations or more gradual erosion under anthropogenic pressures, with the long-term goal of informing their conservation and restoration. In parallel, I am due to take on a leadership role at SETE in a few months.

    While I already had an account on mastodon and even before that on twitter mixing my personal and scientist life, from now on this will be my main academic account talking about environmental science and research policy in an official capacity, while the other will become private and strictly personal.

    I may still post the occasional #Birdphotography and #NaturePhotography of #LariegeCestMoche here to pimp this new TL though 😎

    RTs welcome if you support science that sincerely and modestly attempts to make sense and a small positive difference for the natural world

    Ken Bugul, Mariétou Mbaye Biléoma à l’Etat civil, est une figure majeure de la littérature africaine francophone et mondiale. Née en 1947 au Sénégal, elle est particulièrement connue pour sa trilogie autobiographique : Le Baobab Fou (1982), Cendres et Braises (1994) et Riwan ou le chemin de sable (1999) récompensé par le Grand Prix littéraire d’Afrique noire. Son œuvre est riche de huit autres fictions romanesques, publiées entre 2000 et 2022, qui ont retenu l’attention de la critique.

    Salut à tous et toutes ! Je me suis lancé dans la lecture de ce bouquin et j'ai envie de vous proposer une lecture collective avec des résumés et graphes. Et vous invite chaudement à l'acheter et le partager. Comme à mon habitude, je commence par le sommaire :D

    Le capitalisme d'influence
    Comment sauver notre démocracie de l'overdose du numérique

    Résumé
    Un polar contemporain qu’il faut lire pour ne pas en être la victime.

    Avec la montée en puissance des réseaux sociaux, une lame de fond s’abat sur les démocraties : le tissu social se déchire, les opinions sont manipulées, les élections sont déstabilisées.

    Si les outils numériques ont représenté une innovation majeure dans la production et la diffusion de savoirs, ils ont également leurs côtés obscurs : ils donnent les clés de l’influence sociale à tout acteur, politique ou étatique, qui souhaiterait asseoir ses idées auprès d’un grand nombre de nos concitoyens.
    Comment se prémunir des intoxications et sauver notre démocratie de l’overdose numérique ?

    La science révèle notre dangereuse inadaptation à la nouvelle donne numérique mais nous aide également à en combattre les ravages. Livrant une analyse stupéfiante des effets de l’action des GAFAM dans notre quotidien, David Chavalarias propose des pistes concrètes, tant individuelles que collectives, pour nous en protéger.

    Les petits arrangements qui pourraient paraître désuets nous ont pourtant habitué.e.s à supporter une corruption, celle-là même qui mine nos droits individuels – et pire encore : nos espérances.
    Cette petite histoire en est une parmi d’autres.

    Une histoire racontée par l'épouse d'un CR au #CNRS qui semble assez réelle, surtout quand la seule solution que lui propose la directrice de l' #INSHS lui propose de moins travailler pour lutter contre le burnout

  26. Good morning everyone! Here's my latest #Connections #Introduction #Introductions #TwitterMigration post, where I curate interesting accounts for you to follow from across the #Fediverse :fediverse:

    @maryrobinette is a #writer #author, and I am listening to her incredible #LadyAstronaut series at the moment. If you love #SciFi (esp hard scifi) you should read it, too! 🇺🇸

    @sayashk is a #ComputerScience #PhD candidate at #Princeton, who is researching failures in #ML (he's also co-running a workshop on open #FoundationModels in about 15 hours, see my previous posts for more info) 🇺🇸

    @michcampbell is Dr Micha Campbell and she is a #PalaeoClimate #PostDoc living on #Dharawal country 🇦🇺

    @mthv is a #Research #Engineer who works in #GIS at #CNRS 🇫🇷

    @astrolori is Lori and she is into #OpenSource, #fashion, #space and #tech #WomenInSTEM 🇨🇦

    @pandas_dev is the official account for #pandas, the #Python #DataAnalysis tool 🐍 📊

    @jessie is a lover of #languages and helps run #CommonVoice, @mozilla 's open #voice #data set, which now supports over 100 languages. She also teaches #WebDev and loves #hiking. She's awesome you should follow her 🇬🇧

    That's all for now, please do share your own lists so we can create deeper connections, and a tightly-connected community here

    I'm reminded here of @maryrobinette's short story - "Red Rockets" - "She built something better than fireworks. She built community."

  27. Bonjour #astrodon, voici mon #introductionfr 👋

    Je suis #astrophysicien, chercheur à l’Institut de Planétologie et d’Astrophysique de Grenoble (#CNRS et Université Grenoble-Alpes). Je travaille sur la formation des #étoiles et des #planètes, en particulier sur l’évolution du gaz et des poussières dans les #proto-étoiles et les #disques proto-planétaires. J’observe avec #ALMA et #NOEMA et développe des modèles et outils d’analyse, avec une attention à la #reproductibilité et la science #ouverte.

  28. Que le #cnrs soit présent sur #facebook et #twitter est en soit discutable. C'est tout simplement HONTEUX qu'il ne soit pas sur #mastodon, #diaspora ou #framatube. Mais bon, ca vaut aussi pour l'#esr (ministère de l'#éducation supérieure). Çette posture a le mérite de donner clairement la direction de la #recherche et de l'#innovation en France. Ou bien merde... bien sûr ! C'est encore moi qui comprend rien : atteindre les gens là où ils sont. La même ligne que TF1 en fait.
