📢 Neu auf Zenodo: Das von SeDOA in Auftrag gegebene Rechtsgutachten „Titelrechte und wissenschaftsgeleitetes Publizieren: Entstehung, Bedeutung und Sicherstellung von Titelrechten“ von Prof. Dr. Ellen Euler ist da!
Es untersucht, wie Titelrechte an wissenschaftlichen Zeitschriften & Buchreihen entstehen, wem sie zustehen & wie sie sich schützen lassen. Inkl. Praxisleitfaden & Musterklauseln.

💡 "...when you return from a supermarket, you don’t announce, 'I’ve brought home 12 barcodes.' A barcode is a transactional tool; what matters is the product itself and what you can do with it. A PID without any associated metadata, services, and governance is similarly limited..."

I've updated the documentation for Carto-Lab Docker [1]. Maintaining open source software in spatial data science requires documenting reliable research workflows. I find this even more important than than just package updates.
New sections cover specific setups for reproducible spatial data processing, such as connecting VS Code to remote Jupyter containers [2], managing long-running spatial jobs in the background [3], and configuring SSH agent support for automated Git authentication [4].

🛠 What does an end-to-end open-source stack look like for an independent hydrogeochemical monograph?
Doing full-cycle research—from thermodynamic calculations to print-ready LaTeX typesetting—requires a synchronized toolkit. Here is the exact stack:
🧪 Thermodynamics & Analytics:
• #PHREEQC 3.7.3 for aqueous speciation&equilibrium modeling.
• #Rstats Stack: RedModRphree, ggtern, sf/terra, tidyverse (ETL).🗺 GIS & Literature Search:
• #QGIS for spatial alignment & cartography.
• #Recoll for local full-text search across reference databases.📚 Typesetting & Reproducibility:
• #LaTeX2e + #TeXStudio + #JabRef for typography & #BibTeX references.
• xtable for automated R-to-LaTeX data exporting.
• #Debian Linux as a main engine.💡 Takeaway: Zero proprietary software licenses needed. Complete reproducibility from raw analytical data to a print-ready PDF.

Dr Qianwen Duan joined international experts at the #DEBIAS Workshop and Symposium to help develop new standards for correcting bias in digital mobility data.
Her work on improving the representation of rural communities will help make data used for policy and humanitarian response more transparent, reliable and equitable.

A Teaspoon mass of a Neutron Star weighs more than Mount Everest.
I wonder if a sufficiently advanced Alien Civilization could make highly densely packed desired structures of neutrons & play with space-time & gravity.
They could wrap space-time as they want & could make an infinite number of massive structures in space, where gravity is just a toy.

Commercial 'paper mills' are polluting the research ecosystem with fake manuscripts, creating systemic risks for clinical medicine. Ensuring the integrity of the knowledge commons requires transparent metadata and open scientific infrastructure.

There is a matrix room now: https://matrix.to/#/#osn:matrix.org
We (@AvSchroeder & I) had a lovely chat with @jorgeluis about https://openscience.network
It's a flavor of @Bonfire, aiming to meet the needs of researchers and #OpenScience - in early stages of development.
I think it's a very worthwhile project (for a potential 2nd account more focused on academia).
Time permitting, I may even contribute - that's the great thing: We can shape it the way we want!If that sounds good, follow #OpenScienceNetwork
