Someone asked me today if I had any recommended guides for developing #FIJI plugins. It's not something I've been doing a whole lot of in recent years, so my memory is a little hazy. I did refer to this extensively during my PhD and PostDoc, but maybe people have other/better suggestions?

Sea of Tranquility was the first of her books I've read - one of the best things I've read recently.

2 pictures.  The first is a field of wheat that is labeled "Original Image".  The second is a picture of the field after the wheat has been harvested labeled "Cropped Image"

I forgot that I had this made. As a prototype that never went into full production, it's the only one in existence and, therefore, highly desirable.

Let's start the bidding at ยฃ1,809, ยฃ1 for every day since the very first CBIAS.

For an extra 50%, you can have it signed by @martinjones.bsky.social.

I can't speak for all immigrants, but I'm obliviously just here for the extremely lucrative ยฃ26.05 I receive each week in child benefit, which is less than I would receive in Ireland.

The abstract submission deadline for #CBIAS2025 has just closed and, for the first time, we have a near perfect gender-balance in our abstract submissions.

In fact, we have slightly more submissions from women than men.

I've just started Claire Lombardo's Same As It Ever Was and I'm finding Julia's parenting struggles VERY relatable.

May or may not have something to do with the time of year.

Thanks Windows.

I had not fully considered the consequences of disabling a device and how this would impact upon its functionality.

AI or no AI, Desmond argues we can get rid of public transport and still reduce road traffic by up to 98%.

How is that anything other than utter nonsense?
