  2. 2/ And then I do not even get the book chapters. I get stuff related to the book chapters.

    Why is anybody publishing with #OUP?

  3. Why are they doing this to us? I want this book! Why do I have to download 15 files instead of the book? Did these publishers ever talk to their costumers?

  4. So the Oxford University Press Word of the year is "rage bait" which narrowly fought off aura farming and biohack. Last year it was brainrot. Humanity's relationship with social media clearly isn't healthy. We need to show more discernment in our reading procurement. I would rather ask a librarian rather than Musk's or Zuckerberg's algorithms what to read next. An hour in your local library beats an hour scrolling. Your brain will thank you. #wordoftheyear #iamreading #OUP #readbetter bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cewjxq

  5. Well, now that #LearningStyles have been thoroughly debunked & the message is finally getting through, here comes #OUP, promoting #TeachingStyles, & prompting gullible teachers to self-identify as one of their prescribed profiles.

    You can't make this stuff up.

  6. Global Change Biology primarily targets upper-level undergraduate students poised to apply essential concepts in ecology and evolution to the theme of global change.

  7. I do not get it. Why should I (or my institution) pay for this? Why isn't it possible to read the normal PDFs online? Why do they put the cut out figures into their PDFs?Why this small font?
    I guess the idea is that they want to sell the physical book to me. But I have a complete room full of books. I do not want any further paper books. I want nice looking searchable PDFs on my hard disk.
    And why can't I download the book in one go? #OUP is really unsexy as a publisher.

  8. Bloddy hell! This is a long time without copy right restrictions. Russel 1905. And they still want to get 40€ from me. This is robbery. By a charity company like #OUP.

  9. New on the blog: Oxford University Press is going all-in on surveillance capitalism ideophone.org/oxford-universit

    In which I show that OUP doesn't trust authors with offprints of their own publicly funded work & thinks scholarly exchange is piracy while at the same time selling out to AI slop producer OpenAI #academicchatter #OxfordUniversityPress #OUP #academicwriting

  10. "Between 2019/20 and 2022/23, the University [of Cambridge] paid £12.6M to seven major commercial #publishers: #Elsevier, #Wiley, Taylor & Francis, #Springer, #Sage, Oxford University Press (#OUP), and Cambridge University Press (#CUP). This was the highest expenditure among 21 UK #universities that provided data."

  12. #OUP gibt mir immerhin ein hübsches JPG, um die sonst wenig honorierte Arbeit von #PeerReview zu kennzeichnen, in dem Fall für das #DSH. Was für eine PR-Idee.

  13. For those interested in #musichistory and especially in how the work of Charles Bernay was to the myth of 'superior' Western Classical Tradition [sic] (because there was none) what the Rosetta Stone was to the Bible-thumpers. Not that it changed anyone's mind, mind you.

    My favourite part is where James T Cook decided the fiddler was the better envoy on his Pacific Trade Missions. The Devil does indeed have the better tunes.

  14. Here are the three main components (and three subsidiary components) of the reason-responsive consequentialist theory of rational inquiry for bounded agents:

    “…the program may be much less revisionary than feared.”

    – David Thorstad on his #free #book, Inquiry Under Bounds (#OUP 2024).

    (Stay tuned for tomorrow's, which post gives arguments for this view.)

  17. Google Scholar told me about a paper citing my work. I tried to check but hit a paywall. It is the encyclopedia I am supposed to contribute to. My motivation decreased considerably ....
