Yesterday with the META/e group at Eindhoven we discussed the draft of the new Dutch Code for Research Integrity: www.nwo-i.nl/en/news/2025...

It is great to see how much transparency and FAIR data and code will become the default expectation to adhere to research integrity.

Vind ik wel een heel hard oordeel. Vorig weekend met heel veel plezier (en ontroering zelfs) het verhaal over de verdwenen Urker kotter UK-58 gelezen en over de fotograaf Stefan Vanfleteren. Dit weekend het verhaal over Co Rentmeesters foto van Michael Jordan. Maar oké voorkeuren verschillen.
