GM: Charisma check.

Mamdani: [rolls natural 20]

GM: that’s a d6 how did you

Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊

Got one too, was having the same question tbh. It seems like a cold mass mail based on AI generated recommendations? Or just plain BS.

MetaROR’s approach to Crossref DOI registration

Innovation in scientific publishing and its implications for Crossref DOI registration practices - MetaROR’s approach

doi.org/10.64000/vfe...

Together with @andre-brasil.bsky.social I just published this blog post about @crossref.bsky.social DOI registration practices for @metaror.bsky.social.

Voor een overzicht: www.openscience.nl/nieuws/45-pr...

NWO werkt nauw samen met @universiteitennl.bsky.social en de universiteitsbibliotheken om hier richting aan te geven. Bij @opensciencenl.bsky.social is onlangs een grote financieringsronde afgerond waarin een aantal projecten zullen starten die de beoogde en benodigde veranderingen gaan aanjagen.

@nwonieuws.bsky.social en @opensciencenl.bsky.social richten zich al langere tijd op het stimuleren en financieren van alternatieve en meer inclusieve #openaccess routes, zoals diamond #openaccess en publish-review-curate modellen, zoals aangehaald door @ludowaltman.bsky.social in dit artikel.

@ftm.nl besteedde gisteren aandacht aan de exorbitante winsten die for-profit uitgevers binnenhalen met het uitgeven van wetenschappelijke artikelen.

Het kan anders, en dat gebeurt gelukkig ook al. 1/3

Laatst zag ik een boze post van een Yale-professor waarin hij schreef dat hij 7000 dollar moest betalen voor een publicatie in een journal. Hij bleek lang niet de enige te zijn. Wat is er aan de hand? Lees mijn artikel voor @ftm.nl hieronder 👇

Elsevier announced the closure of ResearchFish mid-2027 (help.researchfish.com/en_US/resear...).

Elsevier usually doesn’t let go easily on services and products, also not after extensive criticism.

We've got ISSUES. Literally.

We scraped >100k special issues & over 1 million articles to bring you a PISS-poor paper. We quantify just how many excess papers are published by guest editors abusing special issues to boost their CVs. How bad is it & what can we do?
